"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled."

Matthew 5:3-6

2 weeks to go!

In a little over 2 weeks I will officially be done with school and on my way to Haiti. So far I have raised over $2,000 which is well beyond my expectations. I want to thank everyone who has helped support me with both money and Prayer! Your prayers are much appreciated.

A few updates on the travel plans:

I depart Chicago May 18 from Chicago, only 2 days after I graduate.
Along the way I will meet up with the rest of the project team in Miami. From there we will Travel to Port-au-Prince, Haiti together early on May 19. We will be stationed in Bon Repos where the project site is. Due to the conditions we will be staying in tents along with the EMAS team who will be there for medical missions work with the El Shaddai Baptist church. We will be in Haiti until May 26 at which time we will return to the United states.

After the trip to Haiti, I will spend memorial day weekend with my family in Naperville. I then leave for Calgary Canada on May 31.

Continued prayers for the trip are much appreciated. It is amazing to see how Jesus has provided thus far.
