Daniel here. I have the privilege to take my first trip to Haiti with the same ministry Jennie went with in July 2014 - Heartline Ministries - Haiti!
I am headed to Haiti the week of October 17th on a trip designed to use soccer as a way to bring the Gospel and love of Christ to the youth in Haiti. Through a partnership with Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) in Haiti, we will organize and support soccer clinics and host a tournament towards the end of the weeklong experience. We will also spend time during the week at the various Heartline facilities supporting the work they are doing in partnership with the people of Haiti. This includes the maternity center, the men's discipleship program, the women's education center and likely visiting some orphanages and other places throughout the week.
Please pray God would continue to prepare our team for our time in Haiti. Pray for the hearts of the Haitian people we will have the opportunity to love. Pray God, in His grace, would work in and through us as we share the Gospel in word and deed. Pray that many would trust in Jesus as Savior and King. Pray for our safety and our families while we are away. Thank you!
You can also support our team through donations of items requested by the FCA in Haiti. It is very difficult to mail supplies to Haiti, so our ability to pack them with us makes a big difference. FCA has provided the following list of items that we are trying to collect. You can either mail them to me (prior to October 14th) or send me a donation which I will use to purchase the items. Anything is appreciated. Let me know if you need my address.
Thanks again for your support!
