Some of you have been asking what is going on with the truck we had donated to the ministry. Well, things have been BUSY! After a serious amount of prayer and council from many individuals it was decided that it would be more feasible and better stewardship of funds/resources if we would sell the truck stateside and donate the proceeds to the ministry. These funds (along with what has been collected so far for shipping the truck) will be used to purchase a vehicle in Haiti. It just did not make good financial sense to ship a vehicle estimated at $3400 value for about $5000- most of which we still did not have. This was a VERY difficult decision but one we feel as an organization is honoring and pleasing to God. We are blessed to report that all parties involved came to the same decision independently and then contacted one another to concur. Confirmation that this is what God would have us do.
So, at this point the truck is for sale in Colorado by the young woman who was donating it to us and we are still collecting money toward our vehicle fund. We will probably wait until I return to Haiti in early July to actually purchase the vehicle, but at this point we have let some friends I have there know we are looking. This will give us more time to raise money toward this project. If YOU or someone you know would like to help us get a reliable vehicle please contact us to find out how you can assist. Thank you and God bless you for your continued prayers regarding this matter. We know this is His plan and even though we would LOVE to have a vehicle sooner and get moving on this, we trust in His timing and provision! - Crystal :)
Currently we have $1800 in the vehicle account- we are praying and trusting God to provide the rest.
