Hello to all,
We are just back from our nightly devotions and today was a good day ! Last night we prayed for sunshine for today and that things would go well at VBS and God was faithful! The sun was shinning all day long and the boy were much better behaved today and we felt that much more was accomplished today.
We introduced the Munchkins today during singing and the kids really thought that was as hoot (picture included) The older boys are led by Nick and Nancy and they are very receptive to them. They gave the boys a chance to pray after their lesson and were pleasantly surprised that all the boys prayed and it wasn’t just a quick “thank you for this day” sentence prayer. They prayed for Nick and Nancy also and they were very excited about that.
We finished the paint job at the girls home and then helped the men on their paint job at the boys transitional home. We will be returning there tomorrow to finish there.
This week is to flying by and it is hard to believe that tomorrow will be our last day at the boys orphanage. We will be going to Antigua on Friday and spending the night their so we are not sure about updating the blog tomorrow night, so if you don’t hear from us that’s why.
There was a little boy ( Luis) that run away this morning and we ask you to pray that he will return to the home or be keep safe. Its hard to imagine that in the short time that we are here that you feel so attached to some of these boys.

Good Morning Nick & Nancy & team,
It sounds like God is truly blessing your work and ministry. I love this Bible passage,seems to apply to what you are doing among the people there this week, in Jesus name. You can read all of it sometime, Isaiah 58, esp vs 6-12; vs 12 says:"Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations;you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets and Dwellings." We will pray for all of you as you finish up the week.
Love, Mom & Dad VDH
Hi everybody!
What a blessing you are to all of those people. God uses us for good in so many ways. We hope the rest of your trip goes as well. Uncle John- baby Mitchell has arrived and weighs 6lb. 6ooz. and is 18in. long. He is in ICU because he is having trouble breathing although that seems to be coming better. Love to you all! Doug & Mary(Dad& Mom)
