The bucket project

Greetings to all,

We have some GREAT news to share. First let me explain a few things about what is happening right now. Yesterday we had a small team arrive. They are from Titusville, Florida. What willing and wonderful hands to come at this time. They not only came to help, they brought a lot of things for the "Bucket Project". So, we have combined some of the things from our newly arrived container, some of the things we have purchased with funds God's people have sent, and some of the things this team brought. They started working as soon as they arrived. They sorted, stacked and arranged things to begin work today. It's not even noon and they have a full day in already. We praise God for the people who have helped this project in so many ways, with finances, items, and hands on. What this team is accomplishing would take Don and I weeks to do ourselves. We are so blessed. And in turn, they will be blessing so many, many people.

This first picture is early this morning as they started to get the buckets ready for filling. This picture is just a few of the finished buckets. But they aren't closed yet because Don and Pastor Mark are out purchasing some corn meal to go in the buckets, also.
This picture shows most of what we are putting IN the buckets. First and foremost are the scriptures (John/Romans, and tracts), then there is rice, beans, oil, spaghetti, peanut butter, tomato paste, a bag with soaps/lotions/shampoos, socks, Malox, tooth brushes, small table cloth, necklaces, tennis balls, and women's sanitary napkins. Missing from this picture is the corn meal. Now, as things run out, they won't be included, but the rice, spaghetti, oil, tomato paste and most important, scriptures, will ALWAYS be there. I just wanted to share with you how the project is going. We will be delivering some of these in the next few days. I hope to get some photos of that to put here too. We really are so pleased to have these great people here with us. What a blessing for us and the Haitians to have such willing hands to help.

Till next post, share Jesus love with others.
