Support us through your Lenten Contributions!!

LENT... A time for preparing ourselves for the glorious resurrection of our Lord and Savior!! As you know, there are three main parts of Lent: prayer, fasting and almsgiving. I pray that you use this season to draw closer to the Lord!! It’s so awesome to see each other’s relationship with Jesus soar to new heights!!! Glory to be to HIM!!!

This is also a time when you are approached by many organizations for almsgiving. Well, I would like to throw another one out there.

HANDS FOR HAITI

 

I know there a lot of organizations asking for people to donate for their Lenten sacrifices. While I don’t intend to sway you from these obligations, they are all good, I am just offering another option. Consider donating to a local mission where you know exactly where your money is going. We take groups to Haiti to help with whatever is needed in the Artibonite Valley region (60 miles north of the capital of Port au Prince). We also offer scholarships to young people you would really love to have the mission experience but just don’t have the resources. These are some of the things that we have done and will continue to do:

 

Accomplishments so far:

• Built shelters in Port au Prince.
• Distributed school supplies to earthquake refugee school kids.
• Built a home for an earthquake refugee family that had lost everything.
• Distributed trees to poor Haitian villages in the mountains.
• Help with the children’s tree nursery.
• Volunteer @ Mother Theresa’s Home for Malnourished Babies

Future/Ongoing projects:

• Building another tree nursery.
• Distributing fruit trees to more villages in the mountains..
• Building latrines in outlying villages.
• Working in the children’s nursery.
• Volunteer @ Mother Theresa’s Home for Malnourished Babies.
• To build a mission house as our home base and be able to employ local Haitians there!!
• … and many others as the needs come up!!

As you know, we are just starting out, but growing steadily!!
