Elderly Care Home – Haiti
Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father, to visit orphans and widows in their distress…. James 1:27
We began construction of the Elderly Care home in September by sending $10,000. The picture below shows the progress that was made with this money. The footings need to be strong and deep because eventually this will be a two story building. The bottom floor for the elderly and the top for staff who come and work with them.
In November we started seeking support for the next $10,000 which we hoped to raise by the end of the year! To our amazement the money came in very quickly and by early December over $13,000 has come in. This money has been sent to Paul Romeus and they are already proceeding with the construction. Each dollar is valuable and Paul does a great job of making it go as far as he can.
Contact was also made with a hospital in central Nebraska concerning beds. They were building a new hospital and were willing to donate fourteen beds which will complete the 20 we have been looking for! These will be moved to Henderson on December 15th. Thank you for your prayers and support!
Your prayers for starting this ministry are needed as follows:
1. $100,000 for construction of the first floor and equipment.
2. Haitian staff that have a heart of mercy and are faithful and teachable.
3. Equipment to be donated that is near to Henderson, Nebraska so we can save money on transportation.
4. Wisdom in planning the building.
5. Donors to help support an elderly person once it is established.
This is the latest picture of the construction.
