HOPE HAVEN - Cap-Hatien, Haiti - a home where critically ill children find healing, rest, and God's love. As the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere and one of the three poorest in the world, Haiti faces a critical food crisis compounded by the devastating effects of late summer tropical storms and hurricanes. www.eternalhopeinhaiti.org
UPDATE: JANUARY 2010
Our Haiti Mission Team has returned from Cap Hatien! Follow the team's journey at http://carl-Haiti.blogspot.com. Team members were Pastor Ralph Satter, Carl Schone, and Keith & Adrianne Meadows. They served as part of a larger development team from four different churches (approximately 30 people), purchasing and delivering medical supplies, visiting orphanages and nursing homes, and helping out on various construction projects.
The team was able to spend some time during the week with Cheron Hardy and the children of Hope Haven, an orphanage for medically challenged and/or critically ill children which we help support through our church missions offering. (Read more about this special ministry at www.eternalhopeinhaiti.org.) We look forward to hearing all about the team's experience very soon!
