Ephesians 3:17b-19

"And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."

A God-sized Vision for Haiti

I have a friend who is a Pastor in Haiti. His name is Vilmer Paul. He has what I would call a God-sized Vision to reach the children of Haiti with the truth about Jesus. Haiti is a country steeped in voodoo. Vilmer has written of girls who have been burned badly through voodoo rituals performed by others. For several years Vilmer has run a school at his church. They currently serve 700 children in an inadequate building. They have the opportunity to purchase land that would allow them to serve many more. They have already raised much of their needed funding but more is needed. I wrote a couple weeks ago about the true fasting mentioned in Isaiah 58. This is our chance to do some of that. I do need to add a caveat for full disclosure. The most recent deadline with the landowner was Feb. 15 and since the payment came up short they could refuse it and a judge could make Vilmer forfeit the monies already raised. I'm choosing to believe that God gave Vilmer this vision and that if we give, the landowner will accept. Will you prayerfully join me in giving? https://www.paypal.com/fundraiser/charity/1640452
