We are leaving this morning for Port au Prince. Our last errand this morning will be going to buy a bed, some chairs and a large bag of rice for the young mother we built a house for, so she can resell it for a profit. When we interviewed her yesterday it broke my heart to hear of the diffuculties she has faced in her life and those she still faces today. Hopefully we will soon be posting this video on the website so everyone can hear first hand the struggles of a single mother in Haiti. For me this is what life is about. I feel more connected with the Lord and his heart when i am with my poor friends than any time i am "home" with familiar surroundings. I am encouraged as we partner together for the suffering and yet continue to feel the heavy weight of the hopelessness that is so prevalent here. Remember the poor today. Let's continue learning from them as we serve Jesus in thier midst. Thank you for the support it is evident that you are praying for us.

gratefully,

Brian
