Vizyon on a Hill (Damier)

Thursday night we drove up to the third church Jay helped to establish. It sits high upon a rolling hill watching over at least 100 miles of shoreline getting gently caressed by the warm, turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. We got there just in time for a spectacular sunset with clouds painted deep orange,ContinueContinue reading “Vizyon on a Hill (Damier)”

Vision Church, Pétionville

Tuesday after our arrival, we loaded up a bus with about 35 of theContinueContinue reading “Hurricane Matthew Relief Day Trip”

Steve & Megan’s Pre-Trip Letter

September 10, 2016 Bonjou Friends and Family!
