a HOME for our boys.

YOU GUYS!

i am so excited to give you some details on our boys home.

we have started an "adopt a box" & made a beautifully awkward video about it HERE

i wanted to write a post to give you some details!

SO. we need to have this box filled by 3 weeks! why 3 weeks? so we have enough time to get the house prepared, get beds, a stove, sheets, towels, all of the things a little house will need. the boys need to have the house ready by june. so we are in a time CRUNCH!

we will have a house mom that will live there & take care of them everyday. they will get all the meals they need, they will have someone to make sure they brush their teeth, do their homework, study for their test, read their bible, say their prayers ALL the things kids are so deserving of & most do not get. all of these boys do not have family that can take them in or we would work towards that. we don't want them to get lost in the system or live in the streets. HELP us HELP them. can you imagine raising yourself from the age of 4? never having anyone to tuck you in at night? take you to the doctor when you are sick? all of these things we want to provide for these boys. what they learn they can pass on. they will be able to sit down as a family at a table & eat. INCREDIBLE!

it is going to amazing to be apart of this. we will be able to teach the boys life skills! how to do their laundry, do their dishes, chores & how to be responsible for what they have been given. if they want to learn to build furniture we will teach them, electrical work? we will teach them. whatever their dream is we want to see that come to pass.

they will be able to pray as a family everyday, do devotions together. we want them to be apart of what RI does, so when we do community projects they will get to be apart of that. first hand look at giving back! these boys are used to having maybe one meal a day, no one to really take care of them & care for them so this is going to incredible for them. i am so excited about this i cry thinking about. it is a lot of work BUT one thing i know is with God ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!

i cannot wait to get this house & fill it with memories for these boys. what an awesome thing to provide a loving christ filled home for 9 deserving boys.

all the funds will be able to rent the home for a year & get things that are needed. if you want to be apart of this in any way please email us -- revelatorinternational@gmail.com

this song, "build my life" has been my heart for a few weeks now. i wondered why it was stuck in my head day after day - then i went to haiti this last trip & i knew why. God has a sweet way of reminding us of TRUTH when times are really tough. this is our first post as RI on a blog & def. will not be our last. usually we would probably write about who we are, who is on our board, why we do what we do but instead i want to just share about what is going on. this last trip to haiti was rough for my spirit. rough for my heart. new kids. sad stories. kids who have been there. things being taken from them. lies. deception. tears. a longing to be loved. need. urgency. so many emotions. my brain is filled with a jumbled mess of figuring out ways to get money FAST. there are so many children in need. so many children longing to be cared for. to be loved. to belong. sometimes i want to yell at God & say WHY? God, HOW did this happen. i loo...

haiti june 2019.

FINALLY! i spent a long weekend with the boys & it was SO NEEDED. they have grown so much & i was so insanely happy to see them. not in a photo or video but with my own eyes. let me just tell you getting there was something else. 8 months since my feet were on haitian soil & if you know me you know that is a LONG TIME. the day cory took me to the airport i accidentally left my phone in the car, the incredible ticket agent allowed me to use her phone to call him (insert praise hands) on his way home our car went crazy & stopped right in front of a library so he just coasted in (insert praise hands again). he is literally on the phone with me telling me everything as I am about to board the plane, i was like get behind me devil. an uber driver, a good friend, a tow truck, cory's step dad & an alternator later the car was good to go. when i walked into the house my heart was just overcome with thankfulness. yes we still need to raise $4000 before august ...

august happenings.

you guys I have 3 words for you, GOD IS GOOD. thanks to so many amazing supporters our rent is paid in full for the year for the #riboyshome we could not do what we do without your prayers & donations. you are all apart of our #rifamily & we are so blessed to have you.  SO MANY THINGS to tell all of you. we were in haiti 3 weeks ago & went with expectant hearts ready to get to work. we were so blessed to have ali come again (this was her 2nd trip) & I know the boys were so excited to see her. she prepared lessons for the kiddos at CAD & our #riboyshome boys. she spoke about Gods plan & purpose for our lives. she spoke about a time line of our day & how we can incorporate God in that time line & how we can show God to others. such a good reminder for us all! we were able to spend 2 days at CAD & were so happy. we were able to teach them how to play volleyball.  we were also able to bring mangoes from our pro...
