Headed back again!

The orphanage in Haiti has received more funding to get started on the building again.  God opened up heaven and poured out His blessings on Sherry and her kids.  Now she is ready for Steve to return and help supervise the workers and help move the work forward.  We thought it was going to be late Feb. into March but things are progressing much faster.  She needs him to come ASAP.  Once again we are asking for your help to fund his trip and expenses.  We need heaven to open up on us to fill the void when he is not here working.  You can give online but today is the deadline for us to get it in February.  www.christianlightonline.com

BUILDING NEEDED IN HAITI, NOW!!!!

 URGENT REQUEST FROM SHERRIE FAUSEY.  Please read below.  Sherrie needs this work done ASAP and she wishes for Steve to come to supervise the work and groups getting it done.  We need the provision for him to do this.

"We will need our rooms on the roof sooner than expected.  One of the rooms was to be for Wisnal & Yvoinette who were getting married in December.  Both have lived on campus for a few years.  Their parents are demanding that the marriage be moved up to Oct. 30.  We don't have a room ready for them!!!    Please keep this young couple in prayer.  God will make a way.

 

My worker's problem is my problem.  We are like a family with me being the mama.  Please keep the wooden rooms to be built on the roof in prayer.  We need them ASAP!!!!!  It will cost about $5,000 per room and we need teams of Americans who can swing a hammer ASAP!!!!!  We also need the funding ASAP!!!!

I will have Pastor Leny start the Haitian masons on the concrete posts for the roof as soon as I can.  Then the Haitians can put up the tin roof.  It will look much like the church roof in the picture.  The outer wall will be of either concrete or wood.  All the inner walls can be of wood.  This way we can design the rooms to whatever size and shape fits our needs. We need 1 room finished by October 30th!!!  God will make a way."

 

Recognizing God in the small everyday things

How often do we get help from our Heavenly Dad and not notice it and give Him thanks and credit?  This jumped out at me yesterday.  I woke up with such and awful pain in my neck.  You know, that kink that gets in there down the side of your neck into your shoulder.  I knew I did not need this as I had a lot to do.  It was around 3 a.m. and I could not get comfortable or pain free to go back to sleep.  I started talking to Dad about it and asking Him to help the pain and help me go back to sleep.  I tossed and turned.  Prayed and complained.  I tried different pillow positions and combinations.  In frustration I took a deep breath and asked once more for help with the pain and flopped over on my back.  I remember thinking how it wasn't feeling too bad in that position.  Next thing I knew it was time to get up.  I had fallen off to sleep and even woke up with the pain gone.  I went about the morning and somewhere along the line heard that 'still small voice' asking me if my neck felt better now.  'Why yes, Lord, it does.'  Then stopped in my tracks.  'YOU put that in my mind to lay in that position.  And YOU took away my pain and I have not even said a single thank you!!!'   His subtle reminder brought me to my senses to be more aware when our pleas are answered and not just give the credit to our amazing intelligence.  After all Who gave us that intelligence?  ALL things come from Him even the idea for a more comfortable position at night to ease a pain in the neck!

Hello from flooded Haiti,

 

We had a terrible rainstorm last evening.  It was not a tropical storm but many people died in floods and mudslides.  EDH went out so we have no electricity everywhere except for the solar panels and generators.  Praise the Lord for our solar panels!!!!!

 

I walked though our ravine area this morning where most of our children live.  Some of them lost their possessions and some lost their homes.  Children came to school is old clothes and barefoot because they lost everything.  We can at least feed them.

 

We need to help the families of our students who lost homes and possessions in the flood.    We will distribute whatever clothes & shoes we have.  We are still assessing exactly what to do but we know they need help.  A lot of help.  Some are homeless.  And another rain storm is headed this way.

 

Please pray for our people in the ravine as we try to help them.

 

God bless you,

Sherrie
