Hello to all of my friends and family!

The Lord has given me the opportunity to be a part of a short-term mission trip to Haiti this coming year - January 15-22.  I will be heading out there with a team from Watermark Community Church (which I actually just became a member of recently!)  I am really pumped to see what God does through this trip to expand His Kingdom and encourage the hearts of His followers!

Watermark is excited to continue partnering with Mission of Hope Haiti (MOH), an Evangelical, holistic ministry that has been operating in Haiti for over 40 years. The MOH complex sits on 90 acres of land and employs over 150 Haitians. Their ministry reaches approximately 7700 children through the School of Hope, houses almost 70 children in the Hope House Orphanage, serves more than 2500 patients every month in the Hope Clinic, shepherds over 1000 adults, youth, and children from surrounding villages through the Church of Hope, and feeds over 90,000 Haitians each day.  You can find out more information about Mission of Hope at http://www.mohhaiti.org/.

With all of that said, I could really use your help in two ways.  First, and most importantly, I could really use all of the prayer you could give!  Prayer for not only the time that we are in Haiti but for the time leading up to the trip as well as after we return.  Secondly, I could use help financially to cover a portion of the cost of this trip.  If you would prayerfully consider investing in this trip I would really appreciate it.  

I am really looking forward to going to Haiti but also to coming back and sharing my experience with all of you.  Thanks!

Jon
