Haitian Choir Practice

These were some of the dear ladies who graciously allowed us to interrupt their choir practice on Sunday afternoon (Palm Sunday). They asked us to sing a song for them, and then they sang for us. It was a mutually uplifting experience!

Team Report Next Week

Next Sunday evening April 22nd at 6:00 pm, the TCI Mission Team will be giving a brief report about the mission trip. Please come and hear about what the Lord did in us and through us during our wonderful week on the island of Provo, TCI.
