Women's Conference 2011!!

Every year Sharon works with the CRC of Haiti to organize a national spiritual retreat with the women of the denomination. This is one of the most exciting and rewarding things we do all year. When people set aside a few days to give God praise and hear his Word for their lives, good things always happen. Unfortunately, it is very challenging for the participants to find the needed funds to cover the conference. Often the women do not have enough money for transport to the conference and end up walking many miles with food and bedding on their heads. Almost always, the money provided by the participants is not enough to purchase the kind and quantity of food people like, so it is necessary to make do with "bread and water" for the duration of the conference. Thankfully, God's Word says that we "do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God." (Deut. 8:3). We pray that this kind of bread will be found in abundance at the upcoming CRC of Haiti women's conference at the end of June. Pray for Madame Solange (pictured above), the national women's coordinator for the CRC of Haiti, and Pastor Bellizaire (pictured above), pastor of the church where the conference will be held, as they work together to plan the event.
