YOUR DONATIONS ARE LIGHTING THE PATH TO EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN IN HAITI

10/28/2024

 
We received the following update from Lophane Laurent, Field Director at Mission Haiti:
Blessings to everyone!

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the members of LCC, especially our generous sponsors and donors, for your unwavering support. Thanks to your kindness, this year we have been able to give 70 children the opportunity to attend school again. This is particularly significant, as many children faced challenges that prevented them from going to school. The joy and relief expressed by their parents is a testament to the positive impact your contributions have made in their lives.

During my recent visits to several schools, I witnessed firsthand the resilience and enthusiasm of the children. Despite the safety concerns surrounding my journey, the warmth and joy I received from the students made every moment worthwhile. Their smiles and eagerness to learn remind us all of the importance of our outreach efforts, which align so closely with LCC's mission of fostering education and hope.

We kindly ask for your continued prayers and support for the communities we serve, particularly in Haiti. The spiritual growth and well-being of these children and their families remain at the heart of our work, and your prayers are invaluable to us.

May God continue to protect and bless each of you, your families, and your ministries. Thank you once again for your incredible support!

With gratitude and blessings, 

Lophane Laurent

WE NEED YOUR HELP TO FEED THE PEOPLE IN HAITI

The crisis in Haiti, one of the poorest countries in the world, has reached a heartbreaking level, with millions facing starvation and dire circumstances exacerbated by rampant gang violence. As highlighted in a recent report by the World Food Program (WFP), 5.4 million individuals are struggling daily to secure food for themselves and their families. This figure represents one of the highest proportions of people experiencing acute food insecurity globally!
 
At LCC, we are unwavering in our commitment to provide life-saving assistance to those in need in Haiti during these tumultuous times. Thanks to your steadfast support, LCC has made significant donations of food to Mission Haiti, directly impacting the lives of those in desperate need. Your generosity has provided nourishment and hope to countless families, demonstrating the profound difference that community support can make.

The need for food is dire!
 
Dr. Nancy Swisher, Vice President, Mission Haiti Board of Directors, and Lophane Laurent, Field Director, provide a recent update painting a heart-wrenching picture of the struggles faced by families who are not only grappling with hunger but also the emotional toll of despair and uncertainty.
Picture
The situation in Haiti remains perilous. Mission Haiti has continued our food distribution in the Port-au-Prince area through local churches. This area is most affected by the ongoing gang activity. We use a small team and a discreet process so as not to attract the attention of the gangs. God's comfort and words of prayer are given to all who attend - a ray of hope in the darkness.
 
Our current funds for food distribution will run out in October.
 
We are hoping and praying for more financial support from Lutheran Church Charities so we can continue this vital work. Any support LCC could provide would allow us to feed the hungry and share God’s word of hope. 
 
Thank you for your consideration. May God's message of hope and comfort continue to shine through you and the work of Lutheran Church Charities.
 
Dr. Nancy Swisher

It is hard for me every single day to give an update about the situation in Haiti.
 
On October 3, a Haiti gang massacre left 70 dead in the rural town of Pont-Sondé in the Artibonite region setting many houses on fire, forcing over 6,000 to flee. My heart is broken because I can’t go there to help my brothers and sisters who are in bad situation and they really are in need.
 
Please continue praying for Haiti! May God bless your families and your ministries.
 
Serving Jesus Christ with joy!

URGENT HELP FOR SYDNEY KESSA’S CRITICAL MEDICAL JOURNEY

10/1/2024

 
Picture
“Preaching His gospel and serving His people in Jacmel, Haiti.” – Rev. Marky Kessa, First Evangelical Lutheran Church of Jacmel, Haiti
 
The enduring partnership between Lutheran Church Charities and Ministry In Mission and Rev. Marky Kessa, First Evangelical Lutheran Church of Jacmel, Haiti, has fostered significant change in the lives of countless children and families in Haiti.
 
Through your past generosity, we have been able to bring uplifting Vacation Bible School experiences to hundreds of children, ensuring they not only receive spiritual nourishment but also vital meals during challenging times. Your contributions have been instrumental in providing emergency food assistance during periods of civil unrest, making a tangible difference in the lives of those in need.

Picture
Now, Rev. Marky and his wife Sydney (pictured), who have dedicated their lives to serving others, find themselves in need. Sydney is currently battling a serious health issue, and it is imperative that we come together as a compassionate community to provide the immediate assistance they require.
 
Please read a plea for support from Jaclyn Rychel, Founder and President, Ministry In Mission:
 
Dear Haiti Missionaries and Supporters:
 
Our faithful partner Sydney Kessa (Pastor Marky’s wife) is in need of our immediate support. Sydney has been the anchor holding our projects together for over 15 years. Without her, Ministry in Mission could not function in Jacmel, Haiti. She is now in need of our support through prayer and funds to provide medical care.
 
Recently, Sydney received a diagnosis from a physician in the United States that she has a mass in each breast. Following the advice of her oncologist, she is scheduled to undergo biopsies to determine further medical procedure. Unfortunately, with no health insurance in the U.S. and the lack of medical professionals in Haiti capable of performing this specific surgery, Sydney has decided to travel to Mexico City, where her sister is a physician and can assist her in navigating this critical journey.
 
The estimated cost for her round-trip airfare and the necessary biopsy surgery is $7,000. To put this in perspective, had she pursued treatment in the U.S., the expenses would have soared to approximately $11,000. Many of you, our devoted Haiti supporters, have kindly offered to help in times of need. Now is the time to rally together and extend that support to Sydney.
 
Please pray for the best outcome.
Thank you very much,
 
Jaclyn Rychel
Founder and President, Ministry In Mission

Let us come together as a community to uplift Pastor Marky and his wife Sydney during this challenging time. Your contributions, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in her life and her ability to receive the care she urgently needs. Additionally, your prayers will provide her with the strength and comfort necessary to face this journey. Together, we can embody the spirit of compassion that defines our mission at LCC. Thank you for being part of this vital effort!

YOUR SUPPORT IS SAVING LIVES IN HAITI

9/16/2024

 
Thank you for joining LCC in supporting our mission to aid the vulnerable in Haiti during these challenging times. Your contribution, no matter how big or small, can make a difference and help alleviate the suffering of those affected. Together, we can make a meaningful impact and help save lives in Haiti.
Because of your unwavering support, LCC has been able to provide funding for building, supplies, and opening Habitat Care Center Haiti operated by Meshac St Amour, President, Habitat For Children Ministries.
 
LCC partners with Grace Lutheran Church in Port St. Lucie, Florida, where Meshac is a member, and its Pastor, Rev. Cris Escher to help provide medical supplies, equipment, and medication for the clinic.
 
Thanks to your generous donations, we also made substantial donations for food to Mission Haiti. Please read the following updates from President Meschac St Amour and Lophane Laurent, Mission Haiti, to learn about the impact of your support.

On Saturday, September 14, Habitat Care Center held a mobile health clinic, where we served more than 200 people. They came to consult for different diseases and we had several specialists serving the people: An eye doctor, gynecologist, internist, orthopedic, and pediatrician. We started the day at 6 a.m. and people were already lined up to meet us. We finished around 5 p.m.
 
People were really happy because the area needed these different services. Many people are suffering in the community. There is indeed a large hospital in the Nan community, but access to it is not easy because people cannot afford to pay for the services.
 
Thanks to the Habitat Care Center, the service came to the people, and the people felt restored like dry land that was waiting for rain.
 
When it comes to buying medicine, many just can't afford it. People are asking Habitat to find sponsors to subsidize their medicine so they can pay at a lower price.

DONATE - HABITAT FOR CHILDREN MINISTRIES MEDICAL CLINIC

I want to thank all of you for your prayers. Recently we had a big VBS in Port-au-Prince, especially in Delmas with 150 kids. We had a lot of fun, we played and danced. I shared with the children the story of Daniel and the lions and taught them how it is important to pray to God.
 
The situation in Haiti is desperate, especially in Port-au-Prince where the gangs control 80% of the capital and hire kids to kill and kidnap people. Anytime we can help one of those kids learn more about Jesus, is very important.
 
I hope next time I will be able to have more kids because the budget was only for 150 even though more came. Thanks again in the name of those children!

Supporting Ukraine: Two Years and Counting

"[the God of all comfort] who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God."
(2 Corinthians 1:4)

In addition to working with the pastors of the Synod of Evangelical Lutheran Churches in Ukraine (SELCU) to continue to provide much-needed support to the people of Ukraine, Lutheran Church Charities partners with Archpriest Mykhailo Kuzma (pictured with Rev. Chris Singer, LCC President/CEO) of Immaculate Conception Ukrainian Church in Palatine, Illinois, to help refugee families settle in the United States.
 
To showcase the impact of your support, we released a series of video interviews in June featuring individuals directly impacted by your donations. Today, you'll hear from Inna Kaniuka who escaped the horror of war with her family and received help from the Ukrainian Church in Palatine.
 
Together, we are bringing hope, love, and faith to those in need. Thank you for being a beacon of light in the midst of uncertainty. Please consider giving generously to the Ukrainian Relief Fund. With your help, we can provide assistance and spiritual guidance to those who are in need in Ukraine and the refugee families in the United States.

The Ukrainian Relief Fund is a unique opportunity to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those who are suffering and starting over. By offering both material support and spiritual guidance, we can help bring hope and healing to those who need it most. Thank you for your support.

Remembering Those Who Had to Leave - Inna's Story

"The morning of February 24 changed our life. When I opened my eyes and woke up very quickly, I heard bombing sounds. I quickly woke my kids up and told them that we had to go and that we couldn’t stay
here.
 
When I met Father Mykhailo in such an unexpected way, he connected me with people who are my angels in this world and I realized that I’m not alone.
 
I believe that it's all God's plan. I'm sure that in this way God showed me that He is in my life, that He loves me and supports me." — Inna Kaniuka

TRANSFORMING LIVES IN GHANA

8/15/2024

 
Picture
Last week, Rev. John Donkoh, president of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Ghana (ELCG), visited Lutheran Church Charities and provided an update on the well-digging and Gospel-sharing work being done with partner Church Without Walls (C-WOW).
 
Rev. Donkoh included LCC in a series of stops with mission partners in the United States to raise support for new wells and medical clinics.
 
LCC has supported Donkoh and the ELCG effort for nine years — and because of your generous donations, dozens of wells have been dug, providing much-needed clean water, improved health, safety, and community.
 
Watch Rev. John Donkoh's message below to hear the impact of your donations in Ghana.

"We are trying to bring people to the saving knowledge of Christ and to also help them to meet their needs, especially in the area of clean water and the medical or health needs of the people.
 
LCC has been very instrumental, working closely with Church Without Walls, and the churches to be able to provide clean drinking water in the rural areas."
 
— Rev. John Donkoh

The ELCG has grown from eight congregations in 2018 to 28 congregations in 2024. Providing clean water and medical services through Hope Medical Centers in Gomoa Kumasi and Kintampo have allowed Christ-followers in Ghana to share the love of Jesus in multiple regions of the country of about 34 million people. 
Picture
When the ELCG goes into a village and drills a well, the impact on lives is immediate and life-changing, he said. More than punching holes in the ground, the ELCG establishes a relationship with the village and, with the help of the village elders, introduces the village to Living Water.
 
Please donate to help LCC continue to support this important work in Ghana.

Help Save Lives in Haiti

4/22/2024

 
The situation in Haiti is critical, with millions of people starving and in desperate need of assistance. Thank you for joining LCC in supporting our mission to aid the vulnerable in Haiti during these challenging times. Your contribution, no matter how big or small, can make a difference and help alleviate the suffering of those affected. Together, we can make a meaningful impact and help save lives in Haiti.
Because of your unwavering support, LCC has been able to make substantial donations for food and medicine to Mission Haiti and Habitat For Children Ministries. We received the following updates from Lophane Laurent, Mission Haiti and Meschac St Amour, President, Habitat For Children Ministries:

It is a pleasure for me to write you this note on behalf of the people in Haiti to explain what this food package represents for us now. I want to thank God for his mercy and love, and I want to thank all of the members of LCC, especially the donors and sponsors who never stop supporting LCC with their prayers and money. 

You can imagine how hard it is right now to feed your family, where the food is very expensive and not easy to find because of gang violence. Before, when the inflation was 15%, I used to buy a bag of rice for about $15, and now, with the inflation of 60%, it costs $45 to $50, and you can’t find it everywhere. In our food package, we give rice, spaghetti, cream corn, sugar, and oil vegetables, and each family receives one and has food for about four or one week, depending on how many people there are in the family.

Please continue praying for Haiti because almost 6 million people are starving or are homeless because they don’t have a job, and 80% of businesses are closed or destroyed by the gangs. Most of the owners left Haiti, so this is a part of the situation in Haiti now. But Mission Haiti never stopped its job in Haiti and kept going on all our projects even though it was difficult for us.

My friends, now you can understand why I say this donation is more than a blessing for my people. Our airport is closed because of gang violence and all the shipping also, and we export almost 90% of the products we use in Haiti.

In the name of the parents and the kids in our scholarship program, especially in my name, I say thanks so much, and May God bless your families and your ministries.

Christ is Risen. He is Risen Indeed, Alleluia!

On Sunday, April 7, 2024, Habitat For Children Ministries organized a prayer day for Haiti. During that time of prayer, we prayed to God for the situation of violence to calm down and stop. The prayer was called "Habitat Unity Group Day of Prayer." We asked God to be merciful to the people of Haiti because they are hungry, and everything is getting so expensive. The people can't afford to buy food anymore. The trucks that carry merchandise to the countryside are forced to pay gang members at every stop. Many hospitals have started closing their doors, and patients are forced to return home because there is no medicine and gas for the hospitals to work as they should. 

We also offered up praises and thanks to all the people who help us and our organizations to continue with God's work while everything is going on in Port-au-Prince. Habitat For Children Ministries is still working diligently in the countryside to deliver food and take care of sick people. We praise God for that opportunity!

Picture
Speaking with a friend from Port-au-Prince last week, he said to me humanitarian colleagues emphasized that these departments do not have sufficient infrastructure, and host communities do not have sufficient resources to cope with the large number of people fleeing Port-au-Prince. Also, speaking with a police friend over the weekend in Port-au-Prince, he said that of the 53,125 people who fled Port-au-Prince from March 8th-27th, nearly 80% already had been forced to abandon their homes and were living with relatives or in crowded and unsanitary makeshift shelters across the capital. The countryside is getting filled quickly, and now we are dealing with a lack of everything.

More than 85% of Haitians leaving the capital have been crowding into buses, risking travel through gang-controlled territory where gang rapes have been reported arm gunmen have been known to open fire on public transport. The transitional council, which will be responsible for choosing a new Prime Minister and Council of Ministers, has yet to be formally established.
 
"So, we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."  (2 Corinthians 4:18)

Thank you for joining LCC in supporting our mission to aid the vulnerable in Haiti during these challenging times.
 
Because of your unwavering support, LCC has been able to make substantial donations for food and medicine to Mission Haiti and Habitat for Children Ministries in collaboration with Rev. Cris Escher of Grace Lutheran Church (LCMS) in Port St. Lucie, Florida.
We received the following update from Meschac St Amour, President, Habitat For Children Ministries:
On Sunday, March 24th, we went to the countryside to distribute food at a church where our missionaries have visited in the past. It was a beautiful day! The service was great, and we were able to provide some relief. The people at church were very hungry, and they said that this was 'A gift from God.'
 
We would like to continue to support the church and the people with food because the country is still blocked in some parts. Hunger has increased because food is expensive, and these people do not have bank accounts or any way to get funding. We at Habitat want to encourage anyone who is interested in doing something to help with this program to do so now. This way, we can continue to provide food for those in need.
 
We encourage you to join in our efforts by making a donation to help those who are hungry. We know that with your prayers and financial support, we can help many people and make a difference. The pastor and the congregation at church were very happy and hope for more support in the near future. Will you be that blessing for them?
