Proverbs 21:13

If a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, he too will cry out and not be answered.


I am not sure what the future schedule will be. A lot will rely on what happens over the next few months. We are taking some time to regroup and rethink what the plan is. I know what some of the needs are, and which ones we want to fulfill, it is just how we go about doing this.

Orphanage in Omoa

Orphanage in Omoa

Currently the desire is:

1. Find a good, reliable solar powered fresh water conversion device. I am looking for a sub $3000 solar powered water supply that can be hooked up to a local river, swamp or whatever and will put out at least 2000 gallons of fresh, clean, drinkable water per day. A lot of disease in third world countries is spread by contaminated water. If we can find and sponsor devices that can be either shipped and assembled, or assembled with local materials to these places, one village at a time we can start supplying fresh water. I hope that over the next six months or so we can find something and start providing at least one per month to villages in Haiti and other countries. If you know of something, please let me know. Any input will be valuable. Also, if you have the desire to go and set these up once we find them let me know as well as I will keep a list of willing volunteers. We will most likely work with missions already in country. I also would like to talk with some biologist type people about this.

2. I already have a computer set up designed and am now looking for sponsorship. I hope to find companies and/or individuals to sponsor the cost of the computers, software, and shipping to Haiti and Honduras. I will also look to put together teams of about 5-7 people to go down to set up and get these operational. I will need teams of 3-5 technical people (Windows, Linux, Cisco, etc.) and 2-3 general labor type people (carry boxes, set up desks.) Teams will have to get their own costs sponsored through their local church or friends/family. I will have all the airlines and vehicles lined up, and will let everyone know the per individual cost once the trips are set up. I hope to have the first trips set for early in 2009. Please email me if you would like to be considered.

Thanks for everyone's help, and as always I will be praying for you. Please pray for the following;

1. For good experiences working with the people that will help us accomplish all these goals. I can do a lot of arranging, but with out a lot of people to help there is nothing that would ever get done. Please pray these people will come, and that the ones already helping will be blessed by their experience.

2. Pray we find a good source for producing potable water. Also pray we find the right places to deploy these, especially the first one as that will be the "test" market. Pray that I can work a deal for quantities of these in order to get better prices. Also pray we find either a good economical way to ship these, or that we can find the parts in country to build them.

3. I really would like to find a biologist/hydrologist to work with. This does not need to be someone to go in country, but sort of an advisor role.

4. Pray for energy for me. This takes a lot besides all the other stuff I am doing. I have to make a living for myself while I am doing all this, so this is sort of my side job. I do have some things going on the side that are investment issues, and if those go well that will be good. So basically, if it is God's will everything will work out. Please pray I am, and will continue to, follow God and his purpose.

5. Pray for some other missions/organizations I care about. LifeLine Christian Missions out of Ohio, IMPACT Ministries out of North Carolina, Evergreen Church Reconciliation out of Beaverton Oregon, and Humaninet out of Oregon.
