We are Officially Haitian

Before Drex left to go to the states, He wanted to put up the Haitian Flag so we could finally be “Officially Haitian.” So drex,all the workers, and I hummed the Haitian National Anthem and then saluted the flag. We joked around with the workers that everytime they entered the property they had to salute the flag. So here we stand proudly hailing the flag of this beautiful land!

We just purchased more land!

I wanted to inform everyone that more land was purchased next to the land we have now. We are still deciding the use for the land, but good-flat land is hard to come by so we thought that is would be best to aquire it now. Just pray that God gives the Hands and Feet Project the direction and resources possible to accomplish his will. Thanks you all for your support in helping us purchase this land to continue the work of helping those in need. We are truly blessed. God Bless jeremy

We are back up and running!

Well for those of you that didn’t know, Drex and Jo flew back to the States for a couple of months to take care of some business and to relax a little bit. My name is Jeremy Picker and I have relieved them for the time that they are gone. I used to sell merchandise for Audio Adrenaline and I heard about what they were doing down in Cyvadier and asked if I could help with construction or anything else. Mark told me that they had the construction covered, but that his parents had to leave for a couple of months and they needed someone to oversee it while they were gone. I told him I would do it instantly and here I am. The first week here, Drex and Jo filled me in on all my duties and responsibilities. They crammed in a lot of stuff within a short period of time. I was a little overwhelmed, but I think I have handled it pretty well. I will have more to say in the days coming, so keep an eye out. The internet was off for over a week and I have been trying to catch up on things. Please keep me in your prayers as well as the children and the whole project. Looking forward to making some new friends on here. God Bless p.s. you can email me at pickyboom@hotmail.com or check out my personal blog: http://blog.myspace.com/pickyboom , all normal messages will go to drex in the states thx
