Residents Occupy New Homes in PPM 2

I traveled back to Leogane today for the dedication ceremony at PPM 2, our second transitional housing community. It houses 101 families (PPM 1 housed 172 families who gratefully moved in about a week ago).

Samaritan's Purse personnel and camera crew were there and we joined with the residents in praying Psalm 23 and dedicating the property to the Lord. I spoke single moms as they were inspecting their new homes. They are thrilled to finally be out of the rain and away from the filth and violence of the tent city she and her children have been living in since the earthquake.

Even the latrines are classy and even have real American toilet seats - they are a real treat here in Haiti.

I will take a look at the progress taking place at PPM 3 tomorrow. We just acquired the use of the land for it last Thursday and it is almost complete. Wow! The guys putting up the houses are really getting fast at it.


Bursting with Praise,
Roody
