Tent CIty Transformation






This past week, we did a "mini DTS" (discipleship training school) at another tent city. This week actually went by very well. By the second day, we had over 10 people coming up to us each day, asking for prayer, and many of them asking to accept Jesus Christ into their heart. Seeing their passion to learn about Christ, their childlike faith, and their eagerness to get prayer and not be thinking about what other people were thinking about them, blew my mind. Adults.. living in a destroyed nation and city, where most people thinking there is absolutely no hope here.. hope was all around this tent city. There were also around 20-30 kids that would join us, wanting to play every morning and afternoon, which we had a blast doing. We brought jump ropes, bubbles, toy sets, and other fun things to bless them with and to play with them. The children here in Haiti, and especially the children that basically only have the clothes on their backs.. are such joyful, loving, and fun kids to be around. I would say a lot more happier than the children in American who have an entire wardrobe of clothes and every toy they could ask for. These children have joy in them, and it shows every day in their eyes and their actions. They love on us, and love to be with us. They all call us "Hey You!". So we call them that back :) This week was what we were waiting for on outreach.. getting to these lives changed, hearts opened, and people accepting Christ into their hearts. What a blessing it was to be able to be a part of these peoples life changing moment in their hearts. Here are a few pictures from this week's tent city. Enjoy :-)
