Missions of Love

A Haiti Christian Mission

Asa & Jean’s Update Dec 2011

| January 18, 2012

” Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds….Let us us encourage one another.” Hebrews 10:24

This verse was carried out during our trip in so many ways and by so many people. God truly has His hand in the work of the mission, from the Haitian staff to the short term workers. The ladies who came with us this time (you may read their reports elsewhere in this web site) were so energetic and enthusiastic that it spread to all around them. They cheerfully worked at all sorts of tasks – cleaning and reorganizing several areas, sorting large amounts of eyeglasses, teaching and preparing refreshments for a group of about 100 children and another group of 100 ladies.

The Eye Clinic is running well and Asa spent time there with further training for Guerby. We also worked out a computer program to keep track of the people seen in the Eye Clinic, particularly those with glaucoma, and order special glasses for those who cannot be fitted with what we have in stock. Dr. Blanc brought a class of his nursing students to the Eye Clinic and Asa instructed them on eye care and testing. He also had the opportunity to teach the anatomy and care of the eye to one of their classes in Port-de-Paix. Asa also repaired a large hole in the eaves of the residence, which had allowed a large red bat to visit us one evening. By way of news, Guerby and his wife now have a little boy, Odin Neemie. All are doing well.
