DECEMBER 2020

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phil 4:7

2020 has carried so many challenges. I think we are all looking forward to starting a new year. Everyone has had personal challenges unique to each of us including the pandemic, strong political views, and racial concerns. I am sure God is not caught off guard. Jesus reminds us that He has brought us back to himself. No one needs continue to feel lost or tossed by the winds and waves of confusion or conflict. The peace that passes understanding keeps us anchored in the deep love of our heavenly Father.

This has also been a difficult year for Haiti. Even so, through you, God has brought hope to those who struggle every day. The children you supported will be going to school again this year. The food you gave provided relief when the cost to eat became expensive. When medical care was needed, your gift to the clinic meant they would still receive treatment. Your continued gifts to Vine Ministry meant Pastor Daniel’s support continued when many in Haiti could not work.

It is with a heart full of thanksgiving that we are rejoicing in your demonstration of love.

Our mission is to partner with the Haitians to enhance their spiritual, educational, and physical well-being.

We are looking forward to 2021 continuing another year filled with the abundant grace of God.
