Haiti ... just the mention of it can leave you scratching your head. Iit seems that this small, half-island nation (it's the west half of Hispaniola, Dominican Republic is the east half) has been a black hole of resources. I mean, every believer I've known has either been to Haiti for a short term trip or their church is active in some support ministry in Haiti.

May you quit scratching your head and may the Lord pierce your heart (that's sort of a benedictory blessing). The "rumors" of kids eating dirt cookies circulated the internest last autumn. It hit the national evening news a couple of weeks ago. Check out Vision of Hope Ministries

, for whom we recently took an offering that some of the people might eat rice and beans instead of dirt cookies. Henoc Lucien, pastor and church planter with VOHM, is a gifted and called and graced man. Glen Schreiber, our "district guy", is also on the board.
