Before
I left for this trip two woman in my intercession group prayed over
me and I had a vision of two hearts. The hearts were mirror images
of one another. For the first few days of my trip I continued to ask
God what it meant. I was thinking that it meant that Christ wants to
reflect his heart with Haiti, for them to be one with His heart and
one with His passions.
As
our days went on there we prayed over several places. We began each
morning with our alone time 
with God, then worship in our group, then
prayer, and then went out into the city. I really enjoyed praying
over the 3 government buildings that were destroyed during the
earthquake. The three buildings were the Presidential Palace,
Justice, and Legislation buildings. It was phenomenal to pray over
them. Definitely my favorite day! While we were there we just heard
about how corrupt the government was and I was able to pray for a new
foundation for these buildings. A foundation built on God’s justice
and His righteousness! When I was praying for the Legislation
building I had this thought of another building being there and it
actually reminded me of a small college. My prayers took a turn to
pray 
for college students and young people to be inspired to change
their nation, that they would grow up to be people who fight for the
poor and for justice. I felt honored to be there and pray for a
foundation on God’s truth.
that we made our way to an orphanage to drop off some donations that
we brought with us. As we entered and met the girls that lived there
for the first time, each one of them greeted us with a kiss on the
check and a “Bon swa!” (good afternoon in Creole). All of these
girls were eager to know our names and spend time with us! They were
so precious! Pastor Dan and Pastor Kelly took us to see the school,
orphanage and church which was a few minutes away. When we arrived
we saw the orphanage and it was half gone. Pastor Dan told us that
one house mother died when she threw her body over some kids to
protect them. As we listened to their stories of the tragedy I
noticed on the window of the orphanage there were the double hearts!
Just further confirmation about us being there!
Pastor
Dan also told us about the girl that was walking around with us, Jesula. When the earthquake happened the other house mother ran
away and 18-year old Jesula stepped up and took car of the 46
orphans for 10 days until Pastor Kelly could arrive on site. During
that time she did this the community around them stole all of their
food yet Jesula was able to keep the orphan girls safe. This girl
is incredible…think about what you were doing at 18. She is truly
a hero. Here is Seth’s blog with the full story:

still need help right now since they do not have mattresses, sheets
or adequate shelter to live in and the rainy season is starting.
Please keep praying for them!!
