The COBBA Orphanage in Haiti


As I mentioned in my last post, a group of us are preparing for a missions trip next month to the COBBA Orphanage in Arcahaie, Haiti.

COBBA is a Christian orphanage run by Papa, his sons Joe and Jude, and Teasar.  More than 20 beautiful children live at COBBA.


We have many plans for and things we hope to accomplish on our trip.  But one of the most important things is for us to spend time with the children and and show them the Love of Christ.

We are busy planning a bible study focused on how much God Loves them and are bring along the following activities so we can add a little fun to their day.

  • Face Painting Supplies - I'mm especially excited about this because I kids love face paint, I'm I doubt they have ever had their faces painted before
  • Sidewalk Chalk - We can teach them to play hopscotch 
  • Bubbles - I'm sure this will be a huge hit with the little children
  • Hair Ties - They love to braid hair and I have a lot so I'm sure I'll be sporting a new hair-do on the way home
  • Popcorn, Melting Chocolate and Nuts - We are hoping to make them a special treat
If you have any other ideas for fun activities we can do with the children, please leave a comment and let me know.

Thank you for your recommendations and continued prayers.
