In September 2009 our church http://www.longhollow.com/ began a Crazy Love Campaign. We learned that our church would be partnering with the Global Orphan Project to build an orphanage in Jeremie, Haiti. I knew nothing about Haiti, besides that it was an island shared with the Dominican Republic. Special offerings at church were collected to fund this project. Our family engaged in this campaign and the word "orphan" became a regularly used word in our home. We began saving money to support this orphan village. The land was purchased in Jeremie late in 2009, and in January 2010 we broke ground in Jeremie. A church, orphanage, school, clinic, and bathrooms were all built. I decided to go on a medical mission trip to Jeremie with others from church, in June 2010. It was an amazing trip, and changed my heart forever. Our family continued to pray for what God had in store for us. He is leading us on a journey to adopt a little girl from Haiti. Thank you for reading our blog and supporting us.
