Prayer

We need prayer more than anything else in this life and in this world!  In the face of many needs, prayer is and will always be the thing that we need the most.  We will try to keep this page updated with specific prayer requests, but please feel free to email me if (really when) I forget so that we can be praying together!

BIGGEST PRAYER NEEDS:

  • TRANSITION – This is by far our biggest prayer need currently.  There are 2 major transitions happening right now:
    1. We are moving our kids from Hope Rising to a new place and there are many challenges that come along with the move.  Please also pray for our kids as they are moving for the second time in less than a year.
    2. Jess and Sophie have not been able to come to Haiti since Sophie was born on Nov. 2.  We are hoping that the adoption will be finalized soon and that we will be able to get a passport for Sophie so that our family can be together again. 

PRAISES

  • SCHOOL – After 2 grading periods, we are at 100% passing!
  • NEW EMPLOYEES – We now have 26 employees.  In a country where very few people have jobs that will allow them to provide for their families, this is a great thing.  Our employees do a great job helping us take care of the children, but please continue to pray as we learn how to manage employees in Haiti.
  • SPONSORSHIP – We are in the midst of a sponsorship drive, and we have already added 6 new sponsors in less than 1 month!  This is great, but we also need more sponsors…120 more to reach full capacity.  Please continue to pray, recruit, and then pray some more as we continue our sponsorship drive.
