nine:three (part one)

It was nine months ago yesterday that we landed in Port-au-Prince, Haiti to serve at the Heartline Guesthouse.  We’ve been blessed to see and do a lot in the past nine months.  We’ve had the honor of serving a number of teams and individuals.  Here’s a quick look at the past nine months.
