How can we as a ministry with you our partners repair and rebuild Haiti ?
First, I want to thank our partners for the overwhelming response of prayers and compassion for our brothers and sisters in Haiti as they are still recovering from so much devastation and loss. Please continue to PRAY for the nation of Haiti. MV has been working in Haiti for over twenty years and because of our partners’ generous giving we have started meeting the immediate relief needs on the ground. Here is a post from Ed Lockett, Field Coordinator, and Manno in Haiti.
We went out with a big sack of rice and some money to help the community out. They were very happy. We spent the morning checking in with people and we gave out a couple hundred pounds of rice and a fair bit of money to families to help for the moment. As we are able we will be doing much more of this. Manno and I are already making a list of huts to rebuild/replace.
The leadership of Missionary Ventures International has put together an immediate plan to meet the critical needs on the ground and a long range plan once the immediate relief is met. Once the roads are repaired and the country is stabilized, we will prepare for construction, medical, and evangelism teams to come in and rebuild the homes, churches, schools, and communities that have been destroyed. If you are interested in joining a team in the next few months, click here and we will contact you with the dates and projects.
I believe with all my heart that out of the ashes of Haiti will be reborn, repaired, and rebuilt for the Glory of God.
