Dear Friends and Family,

We are thrilled to share with you that we are temporarily moving to northern Haiti. We have been offered an unexpected opportunity to help build a university in that region. After discussion and prayer, we feel that God is showing us that this is his timing.

       

A New University

Vision of Hope Ministries is building a Christian university on 25 acres of land south of Cap Haitien. In an area of prevalent illiteracy and poverty, this institution will be one of few places of higher education in the country. The previous Christian university was destroyed in the January 2010 earthquake.

John Mark has been invited to help supervise the building project during the first phase of construction. We anticipate being in Haiti for six months.

The Building Process

The first phase of construction will be to build dormitories for students, apartments for western professors, and classrooms. All of the buildings will be up to current earthquake standards and include generators and solar power to fill in when conventional power goes out. Local workers will provide labor for the project, and teams of skilled contractors will come from the US to help with specific tasks.

Assistance

We would love it if you prayed for us as we get ready for this new season. We are excited about the changes ahead.

Additionally, we ask that you would consider supporting us financially. we need to raise $15000 to cover travel and living expenses as we donate our time to this project. Please consider a monthly commitment, or making a one time donation. All support is tax deductible and automatic withdrawl is available.Please make checks out to Glad Tidings, and don't forget to make note of our names on the check.

Thank you so much,

 John Mark & Moorea Holmes
