Dear Friends and Family,
I would like to invite you to imagine for a moment your church. What does your house of worship look like? Now imagine that same sanctuary without any pews or chairs. There may be a pair of very narrow, backless benches, but they are extremely miserable to sit on. Should you desire a place to sit you would have to bring your own chair, every week. As a longtime missionary’s kid in Haiti, I have experienced this first hand, many times. This is how most small rural churches function in Haiti.
Musset, a longtime employee of Global Outreach Haiti, attends one of these churches. He has asked if our mission would donate some benches to his church. It will cost $125 to build one twelve-foot long bench. I am asking you, or a group of your friends, or your Sunday School Class (you get the picture) to please donate $10 to help sponsor a bench. A dozen people can sponsor a bench.
For my High School Junior Project I have decided to build twelve benches for Musset’s church. With my father’s supervision I will order all of the materials, weld the legs, plane and paint the boards, assemble, and deliver the benches to the Musset’s church.
If you would like to donate to this project you may send your donation to the Global Outreach International headquarters in the envelope provided. If you prefer to send in your donation electronically, you may do so at: http://www.globaloutreach.org/missionary-donation
