Each August we see the happy faces of the students as they register for school. The students are required to bring their report cards from the previous year as proof of their attendance. The excitement is tangible, and they are proud to continue with their education.
In this month’s newsletter we decided to feature one of the students who my wife and I have supported since he was in the second grade. His mane is Carl’s Henry. As you can see from the two pictures, he has grown quite a bit over the past several years. We had the privilege of meeting him and his mother this past year when we were in Haiti registering the students. Carl’s Henry will be a senior this next year and has been studying 4 languages (French, English, Spanish and Creole), history, economics, math and biology to name a few. It seems that sports are his favorite since he received a perfect score in that category. It was such a delight to meet Carl’s Henry and wee what God has done in his life and how the child sponsorship program through Vine Ministry has helped to give hope and a future.
Please take this opportunity to support a child in school this year. The benefits to each child are too numerous to mention as their lives are changed today and in the following years. Please email us the following information as soon as possible. The final deadline is August 1, 2018.

We had a wonderful time of sharing at Fairview Church of the Brethren in Williamsburg, PA April 22. All of us were blessed to meet old friends again and share in celebration with this loving group of people.
This month we will be at James Creek COB, Myerstown COB, Trinity UMC, Fairview COB (Masontown, PA), Canaan COB and in June, Blue River COB. Dates and time can be found on our website or last month’s newsletter.
It was 13 years ago in May that LeRoy returned to his home with the Lord. Vine Ministry continues to carry the message of hope that LeRoy and Evelyn began those many years ago. We are always grateful for the way he poured Christ’s love into those around him.
Our most sincere thanks to all of you our friends.
This work in Haiti continues with your prayers and financial support.
