True Manna

Man-na (v)
1.
In the Bible, the food miraculously provided for the Israelites in the wilderness during their flight from Egypt for 40 years
2. Spiritual nourishment of divine origin.
3. Something of value that a person receives unexpectedly
 

Bringing True Manna to Many

In December 2012 we served 21 people and started our first feeding program for the families that had sponsors through our CHOSEN school program.

Back then we fed 15 children & 5 moms 3 days a week.

These families were so malnutritioned; we were treating viruses, fungus and sicknesses daily. Now thanks to supporters we have seen a transformation. These families and many more are getting that "something valuable" and "spiritual nourishment" from God and KAH. God has been growing us in numbers every year and this year we got an amazing blessed partnership with Kids Against Hunger. This partnership equips us to feed a better balanced meal which is helping so many children grow physically and mentally.

"Kids Against Hunger’s meals offer all nine of the essential amino acids required for complete nutrition – something that can’t be said about other typical food relief sources such as rice or beans alone."*

Serving KAH food which is fortified with vegetables, soy and 21 vitamins and minerals has made HUGE improvements in the health and growth of all our families.
Also with this partnership we have been able to expand outside of Montrouis, Haiti to Gonaives, Haiti as well. There, a school is giving free education to the elementary students in one of the poorest places I have seen. Even with their tuition being free most children can not go because they are not able to eat breakfast or come to school with a package of crackers for snack time. Providing the school with this food ensures that children are actually able to come because they are certain to get a meal! That meal is PACKED with nutrients to help their brains grow too!
About 300 hundred meals are being served each and every Monday, Wednesday and Friday in our programs. God is so good! That's 900 meals a WEEK... that's 3,600 a MONTH! Whew... that's a lot. All because of God's provision and favor. 


 Not only this but before any meal is served we have bible classes taught to children and to adults which include music, memorizing of scripture and a lesson out of the Bible to minister to the specific listeners needs. We are using poverty as the open door to the Gospel...That is the TRUE manna!
With God's hand of provision we only have to pay customs on each pallet which is $150. In Montrouis one pallet of food lasts 16 weeks! This is where we need your help. By you donating $150 you would be providing 6,240 meals to the community in Montrouis alone. We have 3 pallets on the way and need your support! We only need 9 supporters to give $50 to achieve this goal! Please consider giving to this program! Theree are many ways:
BY MONTH
3.5 gallons of Oil: $63 per program ($126 total)
3 sacks of charcoal: $55 per program ($110 total)
Spices & extra seasonings: $12 per program ($24 total)

What can you commit to this:  This Year? This Month? This Week?
Whether it is $12 or $1,200 ... 100% goes directly to these programs.
