Update on the Bowls and Spoons in Haiti

We are so overjoyed to receive the generous gift from the Mid-South District based on Pat’s sharing her experience of the need that many children didn’t have bowls or spoons. The need was in many districts including those Pat visited and in Jeremie which received a direct hit from Hurricane Matthew. We sent money to Haiti at the end of November with instructions to buy bowls in those districts.

We notified the districts that the money was sent with instructions on how to use this unusual donation. Pastor Isaac in Jeremie replied immediately fully trusting God would provide:

“Greetings to you in the name of Jesus.
I give glory to God for this great gesture of love towards children. We were in prayer for God to think of us in this sense.
By faith we had already bought 500 bowls credit. I was in contact with a store in Jeremie and who understood the situation, he sold us 500 bowls credit.
Thank you for all and a big thank you to our sponsor.”
Pastor Isaac provided an update keeping us posted and accountable for the donation. He also included the following photos.
“I would like to think you for your effort to us after the hurricane Matthew. I buy for the schools and the receipt of the for bowls. The vendor give us as gift 1500 spoons one for each children and 17 ladles and 17 sieves one for each school.
Thank you brother all thing work very well and the construction of the storage go up very well also.”
Pastor Isaac

Thank you again for your big hearts and dedication to be sure the children in Haiti are fed physically and spiritually! I am so touched by Pastor Isaac’s response and faith. It is a blessing to see how God uses His faithful to
accomplish His work.
Merry Christmas!
