Returning to RENMEN: How you can help

Dear friends and family,
I'm happy to tell you that I am returning to the RENMEN Foundation in Haiti from Dec. 28-Jan.8th! I am excited that the Lord has blessed me with the opportunity to bring a group of people from Leading Lives 2 Christ to love on His children - "I tell you the truth, whatever you did for the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me". Matthew 25:40.

Below are our needs for this trip and how you can be involved in the Lord's work at RENMEN and in Haiti:
  1. Pray. Prayer is the greater work! (James 5:16) Please pray for the team of people the Lord is bringing together to minister at the RENMEN Foundation between Dec. 28-Jan.8. Pray in advance for a spirit of unity between all members of the team and for financial provision and favor of schedules. Pray that God would work and move and use us to draw people to Himself and that He would shine through our interactions and give us insight about how to best spend the time He gives us there. Please also be praying in advance for our team's health and safety. If you would like to learn more about the RENMEN foundation the story of how it began is here. You can also read about my first and second trips.
  2. Financial Support. I need to raise just approximately $1000 to cover my flight and room & board at RENMEN. There are additional costs, including travel insurance & pre-departure medical care so please know that every bit of financial support helps. If you are interested in contributing towards a specific cost of the trip an itemized list is here. There is no such thing as a "small" donation. All donations are tax-deductible through Leading Lives 2 Christ, a registered non-profit under Internal Review Code section 501(c)(3). Please contact me if the Lord places it on your heart to support me in this way. **Note that I was able to purchase a one way ticket there but still need to buy the return ticket**
  3. Donate items our team is collecting to bring: diapers, pull-ups, and baby wipes are high-need items. We are also collecting gently used girls clothing.
  4. Help/serve at "The Gathering" on November 12th at the Rock Church, where we will be having a night of worship, prayer, and fellowship and sharing the vision the Lord has given us for this trip.
