the title says it all.
GOD IS SO GOOD.
we want to take a minute & say THANK YOU to every single person that gave your hard earned money to RI to make this boys home possible. we have all cried many tears of just being blown away & thankfulness.
the fact that we just started this thing wanting to do honest work in haiti & that we have so many amazing supporters is incredible. our dream of our school & our home for children has started a little early. boys that we have known for years needed our help & we took a step of faith & you guys came in & blew us away. NOW we have a house for them. a house mom that will take care of them. they will get good meals including the fruit from our land in mirebalais where our school will be one day. they will have a shower which they have never had. they will have a working toilet which they have never had. they will have a comfortable bed with a pillow. they will have a closet to put their things. things that no one can take away from them.
can you even imagine that?
these children have seen & been through things NO ONE should ever have to endure. they are respectful. they are smart. they have dreams to be lawyers, dentist, doctors, pastors, soccer players & with Gods help we will help them achieve those dreams. GOD IS SO GOOD.
we cannot even begin to tell you how excited we are for this.
UPDATE:
we sign the contract for the home today! (monday)
the guy who owns the house gave us a deal- he marked the house down $2000 so instead of us paying $10,000 for the year we are paying $8000.
we raised the initial $5000 to sign the contract & he is letting us pay the rest in july! so instead of using our fees for a hotel we are able to use them to pay the rest of the house off!!
NEST STEP: we have to have beds in the house before the government will give us our papers to take children in. SO. we have found an awesome company in haiti with great prices. the bunk beds are $286 & that comes with a mattress. they also come apart in case they want like a twin bed.
STAFF: alix's mother will be living their with the boys to take care of them just like any mama would do. we will also have a man living on the property to take open the gate, to take care of things on the property.
HOW GOOD IS GOOD! we are literally coming into an empty house & making it a comfy home for these amazing boys. i will be adding photos to this post later to show you the house & the boys!
continue to pray for us. continue to pray that we get the money for the beds. if you are wanting to donate towards the beds our PayPal is revelatorinternational@gmail.com - just put in the note riboyshome bed
we know this is a HUGE thing for you to give to this. PLEASE know how appreciative we are. without our sponsors we couldn't do what we do. if you are interested in coming & seeing our boys home email us! revelatorinternational@gmail.com
BONDYE BENI OU!
