Seeing Many Prayers Answered

Thought you'd like to see Carlos (at left) and Ronald (at right). They are both gainfully employed here in Leogane constructing the temporary houses in Promised Provision Community Two.

PPM Community One is complete and the inspectors gave it their final approval on Thursday. Residents began moving in today. I'll be sure to send you some photos.

MORE GOOD NEWS!! Yesterday we secured a year's lease on another parcel of land! Since this newest piece of land is already level and cleared, we should be able to begin construction there very soon. This five-acre plot will accomodate 54 temporary houses. Fifty-four additional families will have safer, more protective shelter once it is complete. A HUGE THANK YOU to all of you who responded to my radio interview with Dick Gordon on American Public Radio (http://www.thestory.com/). Your donations helped to push us over the top to being able to secure the lease on this property.

On a personal note, I have to share how happy I am that we were instrumental in providing one of our little temp houses to Pastor Danley of New Life Orphanage. He has been working very hard since the earthquake and, as a result, has paid little attention to his own needs. He will be getting married in August and has no place to house his new wife. Working together with our missions partners, we were able to secure delivery of one of our little temp houses to Pastor Danley's location in Cazeau, Haiti. We are working today to construct it as a surprise for him and his bride.

Rejoicing in Answered Prayer,

Roody
