In His time...

A big hello to all of you from Haiti. It is time to start updating you on the progress of Hope Village, thank you for your patience over the past few months as we've been working through different things in order to make it a reality.

The biggest thing we are working on right now is the paperwork with the government. It is proving to be a lot more time consuming that we had hoped, and at this point is what is holding us back in the whole process. So the first thing that we would like for you to pray for with us is this whole realm of paperwork. Please pray for the people helping us fill it out, they are very busy people, and this isn't a priority for them. We are very thankful for their willingness to help us out, so we just ask you to pray that they would take the time to get it done, so we can move forward on the next step.

In the meantime we are making progress in the planning stages. The group of young people who will be ministering with us at Hope Village continues to meet for prayer and fasting on a weekly bases. We have lately been having planning sessions as well, to discuss many different facets of the new ministry. We are all very excited about what is ahead, but we also realize that we need to be patient as we wait for God to work out things in His time.

As always, if you have specific questions feel free to write and ask. Little by little we will be getting more news out there about Hope Village and our plans for the future. But we want you to know we greatly appreciate your prayers and support at this time. Many people are asking what they can do to help out, and at this point prayer is the biggest thing we need, so thanks for partnering with us in this way.
