One of the many many things we have learned from our partners around the world is the "ministry is messy" sometimes and it seems even more true about missions. This entry is a prime example of that from our partner Supply and Multiply. They have formed meaningful relationships in and around the communities of Montrouis (pronounced Mo-wee) and have earned the trust of the locals. They reached out and asked for some assistance during some times of unrest in Haiti as some families needed to be relocated for safety reasons. Haiti has endured many hardships and the people continue to battle corrupt government entities which can lead to dangerous situations for people...many of which are single moms trying to protect their children. We were blessed to be able to help provide safe housing to a few families.

This is Dado and part of his family, they currently do not have a house and they are living in a rented room. Dado is in Supply and Multiply's school sponsorship program. They have family land in the Fishing Village near the Fish House for the build. His mom has seven kids. They are currently living in a room of someone’s house. Other than that they are under a tarp. Dado's mom's family has land so we can build.

We were blessed to be able to build a new casita for a family who was in desperate need of secure shelter. As you can see in the photos, we have blurred them out to protect their identities. As with many families in Mexico, they seek to find a safe and secure area to lead their lives...away from past troubles and influences. This family was so appreciative of our help and they could not contain their tears as the build progressed. It was an amazing time together and we hope and pray its the beginning of a new and fear free life.

Through our partners HEP, we met Ro & Nellie (Miranda) Gamez are working with Pastor Miguel Miranda (Nellies brother) to plant/build a church in their town of Los Algodones, Mexico. We are blessed to be able to partner with our Pacific Northwest family of Life Center Rainier to help with this project. Ro & Nellie currently minister to the community on site and out of a house to help the local neighborhood children.

Antonio is the recipient of a new prosthetic leg and is currently in therapy to learn how to walk with it. The hope is that through therapy he will be able to get back on his feet (literally) to go back to work and provide for his family...his #1 desire and concern.

It was definitely a challenge coordinating this blessing with Antonio living in Mira Flores(35 minutes past the San Jose airport) and with the doctor being in La Paz 90 miles away. However through prayer and commitment it happened. Now it’s time for him to learn how to balance on that leg especially since it’s been over 2 years since he last walked. Please keep him in your prayers in that he would stay encouraged, determined and strong through this process 🙏🏽 .
