JUST MERCY
Photos
Friends came from the US to help and together we made the hike to the remote village of Lalou in the mountains. Long time JUST MERCY friends, Len Clevenger and Sid Davis came to visit on Ile a Vache and we sailed to the small island to look at their broken water catchment system and see what could be done to fix it. The sawmill arrived on a freighter, was unloaded, and put to good use. Janet came to join Bill for the month of February to take part in working on the base, visiting with the neighbors, administering first aid on a daily basis, feeding people, having Bible story times on the deck with the children, and having many interactions with people.
