Heading down to Haiti this Sunday. I'll be meeting with the folks who will be drilling village wells on the island of La Gonave.

We recently placed bio-sand water filters in twenty Haitian family's homes. These simple, inexpensive systems provide great tasting, safe, clean water and will continue to do so for 10 years with very little maintenance.

One year ago this minute, Haiti was home to one of the worst disasters in recent memory.... later that day an earthquake hit.

I must tell you the truth. I am frustrated that all our supplies for feeding kids are still held up in customs. We are pretty much ready to go otherwise... just waiting for a call. Lord, give me patience and do it quickly.

I am thankful for water: running, clean, and close.

Here are a few pics from launch night. As it usually goes, pictures don't do justice to how things looked and felt.

One of the very cool things that a couple members of our team (Stacy and his daughter, Hannah) did a couple weeks ago in Haiti was to take school pictures of every single student at this school of 900 students. They had NEVER had school pictures.

Today I am happy to finally say that after months of waiting the xray system has finally been installed and calibrated. Three staff are being inserviced on its use right now. We are up and running!

here are 30,000 young children in Haiti who suffer from mental deficiencies all because their mothers were iodine deficient.

One of the goals of my most recent trip to Haiti was to show the school children how to jump rope. I think you can tell from their smiles that that they really appreciated my willingness to demonstrate my skills.
