Starting to pack!!

Tonight was a wonderful evening. I was able to have my team over for dinner and fellowship time. It was so great to have spouses and children come with too  and share in the evening. It was a great way to come together and get to know everyone over some good old Italian food!!!

We planned out some of the activities we are going to do at the orphanages. I cant wait for this! Some of the things we are going to do are: face paining, friendship bracelets, finger puppets and some masque’s out of paper plates. Simple things that are going to mean the world to the little ones who really don't have many toys.

I was able to fundraise the money for the trip and then some so I was able to buy many need supplies to bring down and I had many amazing donations from friends and family.

I know most people are wondering about the hurricane….. We are still planning on going, this is when help is needed the most. The hurricane is not new to God, this is all apart of his plan. He knows we are coming and he will know how to use us on this trip. We are the hands and feet of Christ! I cant tell you how excited I am. 2 days!!!!!!!!! I know I have been bad about keeping up on here so from here on out I am going to write every day (given we have an internet signal)  I hope everyone can check in and see what is going on during our week in Haiti.

I just want to say thank you to my husband who has been so amazing during this. He has been so supportive when I had times of doubt . He has been truly amazing. I hope one day to go on this journey with him.

For those who have facebook, I will be able to post more pictures on there and a Group was made where our team leader posts updates. Just message me and I can add you to the group :)

I am going to get going. Busy weekend getting ready and spending as much time with my kids and I can!

Many blessings to you,

Chalayne
