The mission of Hope For The Hungry is to "Share the Bread of Life with a Starving World". God has called us to serve people who suffer from hunger that is both spiritual and physical. According to scriptural mandate, we offer food for the body and salvation for the spirit to those who do not know Jesus Christ and will suffer eternal death without Him.

Sabbath

Our sabbath in Haiti started off great. Our first night of sleep was really nice, and it helped that we were all really tired. We got to experience a Haitian tradition of pumpkin soup this morning for breakfast. It was really good and got us ready for the day. Before we left for church we were able to get some work done and prepped for the week. We unpacked the backpacks and shoes for all of our kids and were able to pray over them and stuff them with some extra goodies. We also started the prep process for all of our vbs supplies... It will take all day to get everything ready. 



After this we went to church and really got to experience life in Haiti. Although we didn't understand much we were able to worship alongside our brothers and sisters here in spirit and truth. It was truly an experience we will not soon forget. 



The rest of the afternoon has been spent hanging out as a team and getting things ready to go for the week. All of our supplies are sorted and organized and ready to go. 



We also had a cold front come through with a thunderstorm, so we enjoyed rain on the tin roof and temps in the high 70s, sorry not sorry. All in all it has been a great sabbath. We are eagerly waiting for VBS to start and continuing to make new relationships.

Pray for our VBS as it starts tomorrow. 
Pray for the kids, teachers, and helpers to come and understand the truths we are sharing. 
Pray for confidence as we all lead out tomorrow.
