Guest blogger - Mom

Our 7 year old son, Benjamin, along with the help of our family, has decided to raise money for the relief efforts in Haiti. He heard the story of "Ti-Fam", a book about a young girl in Haiti, in Good News Club last year. That acquainted him with Haiti before the earthquake. So...he's going to help. I believe that God has placed this mission on our family's heart. Benjamin is going to raise money to send to Ti-Fam's mission. He's going to read books, along with the help of his brothers (who will read books to him that are above his reading level). We are looking for supporters for each hour of reading from Jan. 18th through Feb. 7th. Please follow along on our journey!

This mission is a great ministry that has been in Haiti since 1943. And they're doing a great work. They're overwhelmed with rescue operations right now. They have over 300 people in a 150-person clinic. And the staff are inundated with helping those who are suffering. So...if you can help Benjamin, just comment on one of his blogs and commit dollars(or cents!) to his hours of reading and send him words of encouragement. (He plans on reading 1 hour a day for 21 days.) You'll make one little boy very happy. And you'll be helping Haiti.
