At Haiti ARISE, we definitely see joy in the faces of kids in the Children’s Village. The orphans and abandoned children coming in are finding a home; a family to grow in. Their joy is very apparent. We see it on their faces as they run and play and feel at home. We have four families in the Children’s Village now with 26 kids and four couples.
After the earthquake and hurricane Grace in August, Pastor Purnell lost his house – it was totally flattened. He didn’t know where/how/when he would have a place for his family. Soon after the destruction, we started building a house for him. He called to say “I have peace now, I have joy. God has placed you in our lives, in our path, so that today you can come alongside me.”
