Our June 6 Facebook post read:
Degaje (Creole for "make do"). That's what we're doing here at the RMI office. Board meetings are tomorrow, Thursday & Friday. A local church usually kindly lets us use one of their meeting rooms & their cafeteria provides the coffee, snacks & food. However, this week is their VBS & every single room is booked. So...our landlord is allowing us to use one of the empty office suites in the complex (thankfully the water & power are still on!). After some needed cleaning, we carted over tables, chairs and other items we need to set up a meeting area and food service area. This may work out after all!
It was cozy, but it did indeed work. RMI’s Semi-Annual Board Meeting took place June 7 and 8 here at the RMI Office in Lehigh Acres, FL. Since Rob & Becky had arrived in the area for the start of their 3 month deputation, they stopped by and gave the Haiti Field Report.

There were good discussions, reports were given, decisions made, steps of faith taken; there were some laughs and great fellowship, too. It is always good to look at where we’ve been and where we want to go. We can clearly see God guiding, moving and blessing. It is such a blessing to have a group of men and women who are committed to and love RMI. We could not do this without them!

Stay tuned in the coming months as we implement decisions that were made. There are exciting days before us!
