Mission to Haiti...



I recently found out that a dear friend from college is raising support to go to Haiti for an entire year to do mission work.
For as long as I have known her, Marlo has had a super sweet and sincere heart.
So it was no surprise to learn that while in Haiti she will be working at an orphanage in Pention-ville.

Marlo has been to Haiti before and wrote about her previous trip to Haiti in her blog:
 
 
“I went to Haiti for the first time at the beginning of June. I was going as a small group leader with our church high school kids. I have lived in many other places before and have been on two mission trips before this one. Usually I get excited about traveling, but this time I felt nervous as well as excited. Going to Haiti was something new, and I had no idea what to expect. I had no idea what God would reveal to me on this trip."


She is having a silent auction fundraiser to raise money for her January trip and i wanted to contribute by donate a painting.  In no way do i want this post to be about be or sound like i am tooting my own horn.  I want to bring awareness to her genuine desire and love to go and help others in need.  I would like you to also support her if you feel led to.  She is going with an organization called Haiti Christian Orphanage and you can support her by purchasing this painting OR going to the HCO's website and clicking on the Simply Give tab and support Marlo Wilt specifically or make a general donation. 



100% of the proceeds will go towards supporting Marlo,
or you can make a donation here: HaitiChristianOrphanage.or​g

Let us not be satisfied with just giving money. Money is not enough, money can be got, but they need your hearts to love them. So, spread your love everywhere
you go.   -Mother Teresa
