Bill Montgomery

Bill returned to Haiti on Aug. 15th along with our friend, Jim Hulstedt, who came to help for the third time in the last three years. After checking in at Fonds-Parisien with Clenold and Nono, we headed to Ile a Vache with several work projects in mind for the new base. We wanted to try to get the water catchment system in and a latrine/shower built to improve the sanitary conditions at the base. But while all this work was going on the next three weeks, “life” constantly stopped the work with people showing up with medical problems and other needs. Interspersed with it all are the opportunities to share God’s love with the people in different ways. As Bill recounts ….

Bill spent May and June in Haiti working very hard to get the two new smaller bases built and to get moved out of the base we sold to Yvrose. It was a HUGE job. We are grateful for the many people who came to help. In the midst of it all, as always when working in Haiti, there were regular people needing help in so many ways. Bill wrote the following update.
