This home is being built for and by a family who were really needing some security and shelter. Marco is a construction worker with his dad Francisco otherwise known as Captain Mexico! He makes about $500 pesos a week or $25.

Dania is a stay at home mom with her two daughters and young boy.

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.

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 build is for Rebekah and her family. Supply and Multiply as well as Learning To Hope In Haiti have ministered to her and her children. Her "mud house" was beginning to crumble and was no longer safe for them to live in. The re-build began last week!

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.
