HAITI UPDATE

Food, that is the big issue in Haiti right now. If you go to your favorite address bar & type in the word, "Haiti", you can read the latest happenings that are going on here. Many are hungry & tired of no jobs, no money & no food. It's a world-wide crisis; the price of grain which affects the price of basic staples like rice, corn & wheat are on the rise. Prices have doubled & are increasing here in Haiti daily & weekly.

Some are already asking what they can do. Our suggestion is this: If you are already giving to a reputable organization that is involved in an active food program, continue to give faithfully & consider an increase in your giving. If you are not currently giving to a reputable organization that is already active in a food program, find one & start giving today.

Mountain Top Ministries provides alot of opportunity for you to get involved in such a program. At our Gramothe school (Pre-K thru 10th grade) we are providing a hot meal at noon for each of our students & staff, about 600, 5 days of the week. At our Dumay school (Pre-K thru 6th) we are providing the same, feeding about 500. MTM also has a children's home of 13 children that recieve 3 meals each day. Keep in mind, all our staff continue to be paid the same salary thru all the rising of food prices. We will soon need to raise their salaries to help them meet the needs for their own families.

For the last 3 months we have had to increase the amount of money that we pay for the same amount of food for each of these programs. If you are already giving, thank you! This is an important time to give faithfully.

If you would like to send a gift to MTM to use towards our feeding programs, you may do so by sending your check or money order made payable to Mountain Top Ministries to:
MTM
C/O Calvary Chapel of Danville
2165 East Main Street
Danville, IN 46122
Please designate your giving to "food programs".

At the very least, please pray for Haiti. This last week has been a very difficult one for most who live here & we still have some difficult times ahead of us.

Thank you in advance for considering what you can do.

Sincerely,
Willem & Beth
