Setting Up

Trying to find a "free" web master tutor has resulted in trying this blog format to keep the information flowing, especially to those who are not Facebook "savvy". Life is a bit busy here at the moment, but I'm inviting all of you Haiti travelers to send pictures that can be used on this blog from time to time.

Currently here are updates that I have of interest to Shenandoah District Churches of the Brethren:

* A Haitian style meal will be offered at the home of Mark and Diann VanHuss on March 13. Tickets are $10.00 each and proceeds will go to Haiti Missions. Contact Mary Anna Cline 433-1871 or Mary Sue VanHuss 434-0260 for more information.

* Trinity Episcopal Church of Staunton, VA is sponsoring a musical event from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. on March 14 to benefit Haitian ministries. Various churches involved with Haiti are invited to put up displays or have items for sale to raise money. Please call Becky Miller for more information.

* Kits are still needed for Haiti. Contact the District website for more information

* Speakers are available for your church to learn about Haiti Missions and also about how to plan a mission trip. Please contact Janet Elsea 271-3000 for more information.

* Pastor Geordany Joseph of LaJeune, Haiti is currently in the US. He will be speaking at Mt. Pleasant on the 7th; New Dale on the 14th and others are being scheduled at this time. Watch this blog for more information.

* Family size, quality tents and cots are still needed to be sent to Port au Prince and surrounding localities to provide shelter to homeless during the rainy season. Please contact Henry Elsea, 271-1533 for more information on that endeavor.

* A Ham Pot Pie supper is scheduled for April 10th at Mt. Pleasant. More information will be forthcoming.
