HAITI 2010

The January 2010 mission trip to Haiti is now full!! The areas of service for the January trip are medical/dental, well drilling and VBS. Our hope is to make 2 trips to Haiti every year, so if you missed signing up for this trip, stay tuned for dates for future trips!

S.o.S. would like to thank everyone who contributed 40,000 tablets of vitamins & pain relievers that shipped out on the container with the van to Haiti! Additional medical, dental & well supplies filled the rest of the container for our January visit.

S.o.S. still needs to raise $10,000 to pay for the water wells that will provide clean, safe drinking water to the orphanage children who are drinking contaminated water that makes them sick every day (over 50% of deaths in Haiti are said to be caused by water-borne illnesses). As New Hope has adopted the Eden Garden Orphanage as our international focus, we should see these kids as OUR kids!

To make a tangible difference in the lives and overall health of these children , mark “S.o.S. Haiti” on your tithe envelope or through online giving at http://lookingforachurch.org. Checks can be made payable to New Hope and mailed to: 12350 Hall Shop Rd., Fulton, MD 20759. Please note "Haiti Well Project" in the memo of your check. Thank you for giving!
