We are excited to share with you the details of our upcoming trip to Haiti. As you know our family has committed this year to serve as the US Directors of the non-profit, Christian Friendship Ministries.
For the last ten months we have worked double time, since we both work full-time jobs as well. It has been a real family effort (kids stuffing envelopes, running fundraisers together, visiting and sharing at various churches).
And now, as we pack for six weeks in Haiti, it feels like a glorious finale at an Independence Day fireworks show!
We will leave California on July 1st, arriving in Haiti on July 2nd and return around August 5th.
We are thrilled to have three teams from Fresno and Clovis join us this summer. Our first team is from Soma Christian Church in Clovis. This team will be teaching at the women’s conference at our church in Pignon, Haiti. The second team will be leading a men’s conference. They are led by Pastor Chris Schultz from The Well Church in Fresno. The last team will lead a youth conference, led by Pastor JR Coleman of The Word Church in Fresno.
We are so encouraged by those willing to serve in Haiti this summer.
Would you partner with us in prayer for the next few months as we prepare to leave and while we live in Haiti? We would so appreciate it if you could set aside a little bit of time each day to pray for our family and for Haiti. You can stay connected to what we are doing via Facebook or through this blog.
We also need to raise a bit more money for our summer expenses. Since Tanner is leaving his business, he will also lose all of his income for almost 7 weeks. We need to raise another $3,700 by June 30th. We are very aware of the costs and sacrifices involved in traveling to Haiti so often, but we know how vital it is to our work.
We are so grateful for your encouragement and prayers. This journey should never be traveled alone, so thank you for joining us!
Blessings,
Tanner, Stacey, Gabe & Claire Munro
