     So my time is Haiti is officially over. I am currently writing this from Romania. Our time in Haiti was great. It was definitely a different month from month one in the Dominican Republic. In the DR our ministry was very relational, going from house to house doing evangelism and then playing with kids in the community. Last month in Haiti our focus was construction, and a lot of it…mixingand pouring concrete, shoveling and moving backfill,  along with many other mini projects here and there. Because our ministry was very similar from day to day in Haiti the month just flew by. The days just blurred together. That being said, it was a great month. We were able to serve Mission of Hope International(MOHI) in so many ways.

P.S. Our contact here at MOHI is named Kim, and she has been amazing leading the 46 of us the entire month. As you can see in the pics below she has dreads and they may or may not be contagious. And when I say ‘may’ I mean they are. So yeah, I got dreads in Haiti 🙂
