Summer trips on website

We wanted you to know that the summer trips are posted on the website  http://www.heartsunitedwithhaiti.org/  Look at the tab on the far right hand side marked "trips" and you will find three trips to Chaveneau and two trips to Carrefour listed there.  There are two trips in June, two in July and one in August.  This is a very "ambitious" schedule, however, it is what we felt God asking us to put out there.  He will direct people to the trips if He wants them to happen  We truly feel that they will have participants and we will begin to hear from people soon about the trips.  Please contact us if you would like an information sheet and/or an application. 

Speaking of trips to Chaveneau I am excited to report that Pastor Duval and Michael traveled yesterday to Chaveneau with an engineer who agreed to look at the land where we hope to build the school.  He will make suggestions about building on that land and help design the school building we will eventually construct.  This is VERY exciting!  Things are moving along well and we should soon have an estimate of cost to erect the school building and/or ways for YOU to help out with either the physical labor or the costs involved.  This engineer charged $500 US for this service. 

On a personal note, I have ordered the brochures to be printed.  They should be ready sometime in the next two weeks so I can take them along with me when Ron and I travel to Haiti in February.  Also, I have been working more on the DVD which is still having technical problems (I am NOT a computer person).  The next step toward non-profit status is to register the organization as a corporation with the state of Pennsylvania which has a hefty fee ($125)  and then I must publish an advertizement in three papers which will also cost money (not sure how much yet).  So... you can see the financial needs are starting to mount, however, God is good and He has provided so far- He will send people who can help us with these expenses.  We believe that and we rest in this belief.

Have a great day and we really pray that we will hear from you if you feel God calling you to inquire about one of our summer trips (or the March one as well- there are still some spots left). 

God bless you for taking the time to read this and to pray for our ministry!  -Crystal
