Teaming up with the organization 'Go Project', they will arrive April 14 in Port au Prince, Haiti and spend five days serving children orphaned by the recent earthquake. The focus of the trip is simple - help children recover and rejoice again. Activities will include playing games, singing songs, and making crafts but most of all they hope that the children experience lots of love through hugging and holding. The simple act of loving these children is critical to their health and gives them hope. The team will also carry down clothing, shoes and other supplies that will be distributed to orphanages throughout Haiti. If you would like to make a donation to assist in the purchase of supplies for the Haitian children or help fund the trip costs for one of the students, please send your tax deductable contribution to: Doulos Ministries 3205 N.
