Mission Trip Plans

Plans for the mission trip to Cap Haitian have been completed. The week of April 8 - 16 will be used to build two small shade houses which will be used to grow food and medicinal herbs for use at the birthing center operated by Mamababyhaiti. Travel arrnagements have been made and money has been wired for purchase supplies in Haiti.

The week of July 16 - 23 has been scheduled for a trip to Guatemala to build a large greenhouse for the ministry of Roger and Vicki Grossmann. The greenhouse will be used by the Quiche Indians to grow food. The Polymer greenhouse cover and shade cover have been ordered and will be delivered to Vine International who will ship them to Guatemala in May. We would like to have a group of aboutr 12 people make this trip. Since construction will be at a high elevation, more workers working shorter periods of time will be needed.

We had such a wonderful time having you 3 guys here with us in Haiti. Thanks for your wonderful gift of the shade houses. The plants inside (and outside) are growing like weeds! - Dr. Sarah and the MamaBaby Haiti Team
