A few months ago, teams from the January 2012 C Squad got to help make a young missionary's last wish come true. They partnered with Be Like Brit and Mission of Hope International in Haiti to build a new home and school for 66 children. And they learned what it looks like to see people fully living out their callings from God. This is their story:



"Our primary goal has been to finish laying a foundation of concrete for the Be Like Brit orphanage. Without a fancy concrete mixer/pourer, we form a bucket brigade and pass the concrete, pour it, then pass the bucket back. The labor is challenging yet rewarding, as I truly believe in the work being done by this organization."
"We watched a video about the Gengels' journey, and I could not keep the tears away. Britney looked so full of life in each picture we saw of her in Haiti. Len told us that burying a child is the most unnatural event a person can endure, and he took every chance possible to encourage safety on our adventure.
Knowing Len, working on the rooftop of the orphanage, seeing the beauty of Haiti below--it was all so powerful. The chain of events that led to Be Like Brit was full of tragedy and beauty. Len's love for his daughter brought him to Haiti.
What I have been given this month is inspiration. To see people fully walking in their callings has been an invaluable gift--one I am incredibly thankful to receive. "
