From Elaine:
As I sit in my office here in Canada after celebrating Thanksgiving, I want to declare the goodness of our God. Here are just a few examples of why I am so grateful.
Psalms 36:5 Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds.
Praise items from this past month or so:
Close to 50 people from all over the world have visited Hope for the Island to minister alongside our Hope team.
39 young people gave their life to Jesus during Youth Ministry.
3 new monthly sponsors came forward for our Malnourished Children.
October starts our annual Bags of Hope goal of 500. To date we have reached 140 bags.
A timely one-time donation of $10,000 was received.
A local family has started a new tradition of filling Bags of Hope for Thanksgiving.
Faithful helpers continue to help me pack and ship off blessings to Hope for the Island.
SC Johnson Company is now donating all the Ziploc bags we use for Bags of Hope.
7 staff at Hope for the Island stood strong and declared their hope is in Jesus with water baptism.
Thank you my friends for your prayers and continued support. I am moved as I remember how faithful my God is!
