What do our Haitian kids from Nan wo do when school is almost out for the year to celebrate? Last week Pastor Louinet rented four buses and took 350 kids to the beach. Many of these kids have never seen the beach, although it is only 1 1/2 hours away. They pack lunches, crowd into […]

The rest of the story
After a restful day of worshiping with brothers and sisters in Selio on Sunday, the team was able to carry on the work ahead of them, but not without a few troubles… Monday, 2:32 pm – Cold and wet day today! Awoke to continued constant winds and rain, also most of the night, low 60 […]
Sunday in Selio
Dixie and the team have not been able to send updates since mid-day Sunday. Please pray for some better cell phone coverage! In the mean time, check out the events of Sunday morning! 7:30 am – We are on our way to church in Selio, another small mountain area. I will explain more later. We […]
A Mountain-Top Experience
The team ascended into the hills toward Kawo early Friday morning. It was a grueling hike that took all that they had, but everyone made it safe and sound. Read below for their trip journal: 6:30 am – leaving for Kawo. Five miles in a truck, then hiking up, up, up. […]
Savan Brüle
Today the team repacked their belongings for tomorrow’s hike, visited partners working in the local orphanage, and went on a trip to a school that is special to our hearts: Savan Brüle. This little church / school educates children up to 6th grade with a teaching staff that, thus far, receives no compensation. Though they […]
Kawo: The plan (now in progress!)
On Tuesday night, the team left Seattle for the annual trip to the remote and desperatley poor hamlet of Kawo, Haiti. Flying all night, we arrived in south Florida in the morning, then on to Port au Prince where we were picked up at the airport by Ebenezer Glenn Orphanage (EGO) staff. We hope to […]
Final greeting from Dixie – January 2017
Dear friends, After flying out of Port yesterday we all went our separate ways on different airplanes. Harley and I arrived home at 1:30 AM very tired, but thankful for the Lord’s protection throughout our travels. Today we have no power, thus I’m sitting at Starbucks to send out pictures and thank you for your […]
Trip journal – Sunday and Monday
Sunday 1pm Church has gone on now for 3 hours, with Joel teaching from Psalm 23 about how the Shepherd (the Lord) calls us by name. The team acted this out by playing the sheep as Joel called each of us by our names. As you can imagine, Harley was the lost sheep : ) […]
