Still Smiling...

Carl went over this morning to check on the kids at Good Rest and to assess any damage. One of the older boy's tents was completely demolished by the wind and rain. He is trying to move into the unfinished dorm room. Even more worrisome, a large tree branch fell on the church/school tent. Carl stopped by home to grab our saw and he is back over at Good Rest taking down the tree branch and helping the boys get an unfinished dorm room water-proofed so that they can sleep in it tonight.

Everyone calls this smiley face Dominica because his family came from the Dominican Republic.



A huge tree branch knocked over the church tent.

The little tent that could! While the bigger tent next to it has been completely destroyed, this small tent made it through the storm!

  2. Thank you for your prayers! The kids are doing well and all seem very positive. It has rained relentlessly all day, I hope that the people in tent cities are able to stay dry.
