Hi Doug, I have an amazing DVD series called 'FARMING GOD'S WAY' By Grant Dryden (BSc Agric. Hons. 1993). It is a 3-Disc Series that I have watched and it is amazing! I am planning to give it to Reg as a gift, when we go in December. I mentioned it to him a while ago, he may not remember. The awesome thing is God has been using Grant and this series since 2003 to bring practical insights, amazing success and deliverance to the impoverished, in many countries all over Africa. I will talk to Reg about it again this week. It is so simple, effective, full of biblical principles and powerful testimonies. Most importantly, it is achievable even in the smallest of land areas and is demonstarted clearly on the DVDs - step by step. It is in English but we could get it translated. The website is http://www.farming-gods-way.org/FGW.htm I will email Grant and see what he says about me translating it into French to even make it easier for Reg. I know it is not as good as someone coming in person to Haiti, and maybe someone still can, but it is so user-friendly and can be applied anywhere. They have had massive successes from following these principles in Africa! John and I even intend trying it out here on our own land for our Vegie-Patch in Australia!... (well it says anyone can do it if we follow the simple principles!! (we'll let you know how it goes... haha!)  Blessings, Cheryl

Reg called yesterday from Bouvier: he wants someone to come who understands farming. Several people there own land, and he wants to teach them how to grow the most productive crops. Anyone know someone?

Maybe if I do a 6 hour hike up to the mountains I will loose some weight :)

Hi wonderful ImpactNations family across the globe! Would you like to partner with us in helping to provide these precious mountain children of Bouvier (a long treck into the mountains behind Port-au-Prince) a new school building!?! If you look at the little shack in the background of my photo, you will understand the difficulty of schooling 120 children, ages 3 - 17 in this tiny earthquake-ravaged building that has mainly tarpaulins for walls. The children love coming to school and many treck between 1-3 hours to get to school each day. Since Pastor Reggie set up this school, with several Haitian teachers who volunteer their lives to educate the children and share God's love with them, all these children have not had to risk their lives and well-being to treck to Port-au-Prince schools (an 8-hour treck that put many at risk of rape and abduction.)
After my visit to Bouvier last December, I was determined to do more! The children were so blessed and excited that we had all funded their school for this year's supplies.Pastor Reggie's God-inspired-dream was to buy the land next to this tiny dilapidated school to build the new school. In January, for my 50th birthday, my friends and family donated to this land instead of buying gifts.... and we were able to send Pastor Reggie the full amount for the land! What a humbling experience! God is so good through those we love!!! And now the dream is to build the school here by the end of the year! We need the tents as the basis for the buildings. We will then treck to Bouvier with our team of Aussie tradies and clad the steel frames with corrugated iron outside and plywood inside! That's the plan at this stage!!!!! And the logistics are huge as all these materials- and our teams - have to treck into Bouvier - across the three mountains and three rivers!!! Thank you God for DONKEYS!!!!! Haha! Please consider partnering with us in this next step of the project. Project #513 is up and running! If you can't donate, please pray! We love you all and appreciate your prayers and covering! Many have made the treck into these 'Mountains of Revelation' believing for healing, and I am a testimony to this as well! (one girl was even raised from the dead!) This school will also be their weekend church and community building. Those that treck here in the future will have the old tiny building to stay in when we fix it up! Join us! Pray! Donate! Thanks so much! Love in Jesus' name, Cheryl and John Ward, Moonee Beach, Australia.
