Our living arrangements in Haiti have changed a little. We will begin our adventure in Haiti by living with Esperandieu Pierre and his family. But, after careful consideration of many issues, it has been decided that we will eventually move into staff living apartments on the Nehemiah campus. We will have about 500-600 sq. feet all to ourselves. So, our current dilemma is that a container leaves for Haiti this coming Saturday - the container that needs to have ALL of our apartment furnishings loaded. So that means I need to have everything together by Friday morning so that it can all be packed and shrink wrapped. Yikes. Everything that we send down in the container will stay in Haiti...for whomever lives in the apartment after we come back to Indiana.
So, we are asking for any help you can give us. See the packing list below - if any of you have extras of anything on the list, or see anything at a store for a CHEAP price, we'd love your help. Most of all we covet your prayers for peace!
Many thanks,
Jay and Amy Shultz
I will update this list each evening....please email me if you have a donation and I'll work out how to get items from you. Blessings!
WOW! We are amazed and so excited to see God moving...our list is dwindling definitely quicker than I'd anticipated....which is a blessing since our friend Mr. Mann is coming to pick everything up on Thurs. so he can get it shrink-wrapped on the skid on Friday....
