Final Preparations

We had our initial group luggage packing party! There were decisions to make on what clothes and shoes would take priority (of course the children’s things for the orphanage won out!) and what medical items and hygiene articles we can fit…everyone is excited to be able to distribute care packages to those in need! We are so thankful to be going on this trip and touching the lives of many Haitian people! Four of the nine group members will be experiencing Haiti for the first time. That is always fun and exciting!

We have some learning tools; books, MP3 players, etc. which are always well received as most of the Haitian people are anxious to learn English, read notes from previous visitors, or look at pictures from our lives in the US. We ALL thrive on love and care!

I brought some watches to my jeweler friend, Mike Paradise, for batteries so I could give them away in Haiti. He thought it was a great idea and not only didn’t charge Project Nourish for the battery installs but also contributed several watches himself! I know from past experience that this type of gift is so appreciated…I can hardly wait to present them!
