NEW LIFE FOR HAITI FUND-RAISING BANQUET: On October 12 (Fri) at 6PM, we will host our first annual New Life for Haiti Fund-Raising Banquet at the Walkway at 1501 Lakeland Blvd in Mattoon. It is no secret that it costs money to work in Haiti. Within the next two years, we plan to build a school, a medical clinic, and a base of operations near Marfranc. We just purchased a work truck to transport supplies and people to our work site. We will need a lot of behind the scenes help in planning this banquet. If you are interested in helping, talk to Michelle Donnell.

HAITI MISSION TRIP: The first work team will start building the school in Marfranc, the Haitian village that has become the center of our focus-area September 23-October 1. The second team will work November 11-19. Team members will meet in Miami that Sunday evening, then fly into Haiti on Monday (and back home on the following Monday). You need a passport, which can a couple of months to get, and you need some vaccinations. Application can be made online at www.newlifeforhaiti.org.
