Your Donations Will Be Personally Delivered in October!
 Greetings from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, Today was a great day for those kids because I distributed school supplies to 70 kids. My friends, you can’t imagine how they are happy because they didn’t expect that. I gave them pencils, pens, notebooks, rulers, etc. Thank you to LCC sponsors and our donors for continuing to support our poor kids. Tomorrow, everyone will be able to go to school because now they have school supplies. May God bless you all and your families. Please continue to pray for my country, Haiti. We love you like you love us. Blessings Lophane Lutheran Church Charities has supported the education of students from the tent city in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, since 2012.
Public and private education in Haiti costs money - there is NO free education. Our Lutheran schools also charge, but they are less expensive than the public schools. The cost of tuition is $65 per month. Thanks to your generous donations, Lutheran Church Charities is able to continue its mission of providing aid to those in need. We are proud to work with our Mission Partners Mission:Haiti and Ministry in Mission to purchase and distribute vital supplies to the most vulnerable in Haiti. Your contributions are making a real difference in the lives of those who need it most, and we thank you for your continued support. We received the following update from Lophane Laurent after he distributed food to those in need:  Greetings from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, There is no word to describe how much we appreciate your donation to help my people receive a food package for a week with their families or friends. I asked the pastor for 60 families, and he invited 100. It was hard for me to see that many people and I had food only for 60 families. My heart was broken to see the 40 left with their empty bags. I want to thank you for continuing to support my poor people with a food package for one week. May God bless our donors and sponsors and all of the members of LCC. Please continue praying for us because things getting worse every day, but one thing I know is that our Lord is in control. Blessings, Lophane The needs in Haiti are great and ongoing. Please prayerfully consider making a monetary donation to enable Lutheran Church Charities to continue to send funds to Haiti.
LCC received an update from Oksana Svidruk of the Immaculate Conception Ukrainian Church in Palatine, Illinois, with whom LCC is partnering to provide urgent aid for Ukraine, particularly for the orphanage at the Parish of St. Nicholas, Ukraine, Ivano-Frankivsk  Dear Lutheran Church Charities, We extend our heartfelt gratitude and warmest greetings to you on behalf of the entire orphanage at St. Nicolas Church. Your recent generous donation of $9,000 to aid in the construction of our orphanage house during these challenging times of conflict in Ukraine has deeply touched our hearts and filled us with hope. Your selfless act of kindness demonstrates the true essence of humanity and compassion, and it has given us the means to provide a safe and nurturing environment for the orphaned children who have been affected by the war. Your support is invaluable, and it goes beyond financial assistance – it signifies a bond of solidarity that reaches across distances and differences.  With your help, we are now one step closer to realizing our vision of providing a loving home for these young souls, a place where they can heal, grow, and build a brighter future. The impact of your contribution will ripple through their lives, offering them a chance at a better tomorrow.
Once again, thank you, Lutheran Church Charities, for your unwavering support during this time of need. Your compassion will forever be engraved in the story of our orphanage and the lives of the children it shelters. We are profoundly grateful for your dedication to making the world a better place. May you continue to be blessed with the strength to spread love and hope to those who need it most. Best Regards, Oksana Svidruk
Greetings, everyone, from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I want to thank all of you who have been praying for my Haitian people, especially after the big storm that damaged Leogane and a part of Port au Prince, especially in Tabarre and La Plaine. Last week my team went to La Plaine to do a food distribution where we served 40 families with a package of food for two or three days, depending on how many people were in the family. We are planning to go to Tabarre to serve another 30 families. Please keep us in your prayers because this area is very dangerous. I want to say to all of the members of Mission:Haiti and especially thanks to all of the members of LCC who continue praying for us and support us by sending money to buy food to distribute to those people who are in need. May God continue blessing you all. Lophane Please prayerfully consider making a monetary donation to enable Lutheran Church Charities to send emergency funds to Haiti to help provide food during the current crisis. Thank you for being a part of the Mercy and Compassion Ministry of Lutheran Church Charities.
 Your Donations Purchase Drinking Water and Necessary EquipmentThe ongoing conflict in Ukraine has resulted in a dire humanitarian crisis, with thousands of people in urgent need of assistance. Thanks to your steady donations, LCC can continue supporting the Synod of Evangelical Lutheran Churches (SELCU) pastors in their relief efforts to provide critical aid in hardest-hit regions, as well as a sense of hope and stability.  Most recently, they have been providing assistance to the residents affected by the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam in the Kherson region. LCC received the following update from Pastor Valerii Verba. A Trip to the Flooded Part of Ukraine After the Explosion of the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Station The situation is so unusual for us that from the beginning, it was not clear what to do and how to participate. Very quickly, from all over Ukraine, motor boats were taken to the Kherson region, which was flooded after the explosion of a hydroelectric power station, to evacuate people. The water rose more than 6 meters from its normal state. Many houses were completely flooded, and in some settlements, a lot of elderly people and animals died who did not have time to get out of the water danger.
When we were able to go, Pastor Oleg Shevchenko and I bought equipment for pumping water from flooded premises, tools, materials, fuel for motor boats, generators, and just drinking water. War is a terrible problem for all life in the conflict zone, but when the constant shelling of residential areas of settlements is mixed with a flood and mortal danger from water, it becomes really scary. The shelling does not stop for a single day, which greatly complicates the evacuation and rescue work. Valerii Verba
 Food Delivered Immediately to Those in Need Because of your generous donations, LCC was able to send funds to Haiti this past week to buy food, clean water, and cholera kits for those affected by the recent flooding. We received the following update from Lophane Laurent:  Greetings, everyone, from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. There are no words to explain our happiness. My brothers and sisters thank you so much for thinking of these people, and I want you to know that since the storm happened, we are the first and only group who visited them and bring food for them. We are going to another place to bring food and cholera kits because the leaders in this area told me there are a few people already touched by cholera. Please pray for my team, who will be traveling there, to have a safe trip. Thanks again to all of the members of LCC and Mission:Haiti and especially our sponsors for continuing to support Haiti. God bless you all. Lophane

Your Donations Needed to Purchase Food That Will Be Delivered Immediately The most urgent need right now is food. Lophane Laurent is in Haiti now and is able to buy food and deliver it to the Pastors in the affected areas to distribute.  Blessings to everyone! It has been raining so bad in Port-au-Prince and there are a few blocks that are flooding. People in an area called Tabare close to the U.S. embassy and the international airport are asking for help and we can’t do anything for them now. Please keep them in your prayers as it still raining so bad. I can’t go out just to make a short visit. Please keep me in your prayers and Haitian staff. The video is from the Leogane area by the LCMS building. Blessings, Lophane Laurent Please prayerfully consider making a monetary donation to enable Lutheran Church Charities to send emergency funds to Haiti to help provide food during the current crisis.
Thank you for being a part of the Mercy and Compassion Ministry of Lutheran Church Charities.  More Sponsors Needed - School Starts September 11 Giving Hope and a Future in an Otherwise Hopeless Situation Lutheran Church Charities has supported the education of students from the tent city in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, since 2012. Public and private education in Haiti costs money - there is NO free education. Our Lutheran schools also charge, but they are less expensive than the public schools. The cost of tuition is $65 per month. The civil unrest in Haiti continues to disrupt all aspects of life. LCC received the following update from Lophane Laurent in Haiti:  Greetings from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, The kids continue going to school even with all the unrest but God always guides them and their parents. Yesterday I spent a good time with the kids sharing the gospel and talking to them about their future. We have 4 of them who will graduate from high school in July. Please keep them in prayers, they are from the first group to get the scholarship program after the earthquake. Inflation is now 47%. Food is getting more expensive every day and there are no jobs because most of the businesses are closed and their owners leave Haiti. 70% in Haiti are not working. So I can tell you when you support a kid to go to school it’s more than a blessing. Please tell the donors thank you so much from the parents and the kids. May our God continue to bless each of you. We love you so much. Lophane Laurent
