Food 4 Haiti Packing Night
02/21/2010
50,000 meals are packed and are set to be shipped to Haiti on Wednesday! We had over 400 volunteers show up ready and willing to serve.
With all the volunteers we had from the church and the community we were able to have all the food packed and loaded back in the truck by 6:45pm and the church cleaned up soon after! It is such a joy to be a part of God's work in Haiti and to have served with such an large group of people with such willing hearts. The meals will be shipped to an orphanage 80 miles outside of Port au Prince along with a playground next week. (See blog entry below for more information.)
It's exciting to be spreading God's love to the people of Haiti and to have been able to share God's love with so many people from the community through serving along side them in the relief efforts. We had a prayer all throughout the night and were able to stop briefly at 5:30 and share with all the volunteers exactly why we are doing this kind of ministry.
What an exciting night!

Awesome job team! Now let's be in prayer for the impact that will be made in the name of Christ as these meals are to Haitians in need!
