Parade of Smiles ’17 counting down…

Dear Faithful Friends,
We are leaving for Haiti today! Monday 11/6! This will be the kind of trip we like to call a “parade of smiles”… talking one on one with every single child you are helping reach through Hope in Haiti, and taking home photos and important information for our sponsors. 
 
We would love for you to follow our daily by either signing up on our website or on Facebook This year there are 593 students so we have lots of work ahead of us getting them all updated. Many of you have helped in the past and understand the hugeness of this project.  Thank you always for your support and prayers.  Each of our team members thanks you. Pray for them by name…
