St. Marc

It's Saturday and we have been in St. Marc now for one day. It is absolutely beautiful here. The location of the base is 20 feet from the waterfront. Although the shoreline is completely covered in trash, that doesn't take away from the fact it is the Caribbean Sea, the water is aqua blue, and it is absolutely beautiful here. The location of the base is also perfect. It is right underneath the mountain with all the houses. This week when we go out, i will snap shots of where i am staying at here and post them :) The past month, in the DR and in Port-Au-Prince, we have not have the opportunity to leave the base, without getting babysat. And yesterday, our FIRST day in St. Marc, they send us out in groups of 3 on a 3 hour scavenger hunt of the city of St. Marc. It was wonderful. Finally getting to get out in the city on our own was such a blessing. We will be working in the brothels with the prostitutes and also be working in the prison ministry here. This base has been working with the prostitutes in the brothels for a while now, and a few girls have recently got saved. But they don't know what to do now, because they only get paid every other month or so, and they feel they can't leave their jobs cuz they dont know completely how to trust in God yet. We are so honored to get to be a part of this ministry and get to witness and show God's love to these women and girls. Keep our team in your prayers as we are here for 17 days in St. Marc. God is going to be doing some amazing things. Thank you all for everything!
