Our Itinerary

After months of praying and planning, we're down to one week from departure. As I consider what to pack in my personal bag, I'm becoming more excited about what is going to go in my checked luggage - 2 bags each filled with 50 pounds of supplies for one or two ministries in Haiti.

Here's a quick overview of our day-by-day plans for the trip:

Wed, June 10: travel day from home to Miami
Thurs, June 11: fly to Port au Prince, take a MAF (Mission Aviation Fellowship) flight to Jacmel, Haiti where we will meet Danny Pye of the Haitian Children's Home (www.haitianchildrenshome.org)
Fri, June 12: another day at the Haitian Children's Home
Sat, June 13: Danny will drive us back to Port au Prince, then we will head out to visit and take donations to 2 orphanages outside the city: God's Littlest Angels (www.glahaiti.org) and Three Angels (www.threeangelsrelief.org)
Sun, June 14: attend a church planted by Missions Door (www.missionsdoor.org) and possibly see their local community center
Mon, June 15: visit the office of Compassion International where we will meet a child sponsored by Kris' family and see some of their ministry then drive to Montrouis where we will spend the final days at Canaan Orphanage (www.canaanorphanage.org). Bobi Bender, a missionary at Canaan, has been helping us with much of our planning, and we're looking forward to serving with her.
Tues, June 16: Canaan's Medika Mamba clinic day (www.medsandfoodforkids.org)
Wed, June 17: flying back home

I'm sure we'll have more prayer requests in the next few days, but for now we ask prayer for these few items:
* health in the coming week and strength for packing & preparation
* details of our "transition" times in travel, particularly upon arrival in Port au Prince

Thanks for sharing in blessing the people of Haiti!
