Today, was a tour of the immediate area around JoyHouse. We found a 20 year old boy, Moi, that had been injured in the earthquake. He had a serious cut on top of his foot. He hadn't received any care since the earthquake. We clean and bandage his wound, give him Tylenol and tell him we will come back tomorrow to take him to a clinic.
Then, a young girl is hurt too. She was running out of her house during the quake and was hit by a car. She had received NO medical care. She was very weak. After cleaning and bandaging her wounds, giving her water and Tylenol, we tell her we will come back tomorrow and take her to the clinic as well.
About JoyHouse
- Haiti JoyHouse
- JoyHouse began in 1996 when we saw a tremendous need in Haiti. Children that reach a certain age are sent out of the orphanges onto the streets. We started with 12 boys. We took them in and provided for their physical needs, sent them to school and began to minister to each child’s spiritual needs. Now, JoyHouse Ministries has a mission center that serves as headquarters for the church started by the ministry, as well as the mission teams. We currently serve four area churches and two orphanages. We are working to spread the Gospel of Jesus in Haiti. Our goal is to help support and encourage ministries in the area. With your help, we plan to do even more!
