We need a bunch of “ONES”.  Would you be ONE to be known as ONE who believes in and supports our RMI National Missionaries?  Seriously, we need you, yes you, to be ONE. We are investing heavily in our Haitian Missionaries, but we can’t do it alone.  We want to dig in even deeper, but just are not able due to a lack of resources. Have you met them?  Appreciated them?  Trusted them?  Believed in them?  Do you love them?  Show it to them by joining a select team of people who stand with them and support them. Be the ONE.  Please, donate here and choose Haitian Staff!

NEW Water Filters available as part of our “Water for Health” initiative.  These filters are made from a mixture of clay, a combustible material (sawdust or rice husks), and colloidal silver.  Produced in Haiti by Haitians with Haitian materials! What: You can provide safe drinking water to a Haitian family. The technology of these filters is simple, effective and sustainable. The filters use a round-bottom ceramic pot made of clay, charcoal, and colloidal silver that filters out 99.99% of turbidity, bacteria and protozoa. It is designed with a rim and is placed on a five gallon plastic storage bucket with a spigot at the bottom for dispensing. The filter supplies much needed clean water and lasts at least 5 years. Why: The water situation in Haiti is among the most dire in the western hemisphere. The lack of clean water prevents many young women and children from attending school and

As you think about what kind of gifts you will buy for your family and friends, RMI would challenge you to consider adding a different kind of gift to your list this year.   A gift of a water filter, food or a goat would be a life changing gift for a needy Haitian family.  Give it in honor of a loved one, make it a family project or ask your family to purchase one of these as one of your gifts this year.   Clean Drinking Water – $75 A simple and yet profound way to impact a third world family’s health costs only $75.   Half of all Haitians have little to no access to clean drinking water and are susceptible to many water borne diseases.  Providing a Water For Health water filter provides a family with clean drinking water. These filters are designed to be simple to operate and

Last Tuesday was an exciting day for me and for those of us who work with the Hope for Kidz Child Sponsorship Program because we rolled out phase two of the Deworming Program.  Earlier in the year, we rolled out phase one of the program.  I wrote a report in March on all the reasons we believe deworming (one pill, once per year) is an important part of the HFK program.  To read about that again, go here.  For the 2012-2013 school year we dewormed 9,000+ kids in 33 schools.  This year, we were able to add all the satellite locations that have sponsored kids as well as a few new sister church schools.  That alone is a huge expansion. For the 2013-2014 school year, we dewormed 12,000+ students and teachers! The deworming program is not just for the sponsored kids, but for every child in all of our schools

November 15-22, I (Becky) had the chance to go out with the team from Florida Bible Church from Miramar, FL to visit their sister church in Maniche.  Rob was brave and stayed home with the kids for the week. I really enjoy these opportunities!  RMI always says our ministry is the “ministry of presence” and usually my ministry of presence is in the home with my family and in support roles with RMI in the areas of bookkeeping and hospitality.  It sure is good for me to get out into the village with our teams.  It really gives me a renewed sense of purpose and perspective.  Well, enough about me! This week we had a team of 11 and one of RMI’s new missionaries, Star Harvie, came with us for her first experience with a sister church team. The team with Star and I: Maniche is less than an hour’s
