Christmas In January

I am going to let Ms Agnes and the children in the pictures speak for themselves. I'll just say PRAISE THE LORD FOR HIS PROVISION!

Dear Richard and Darlene,
Greetings in Jesus Name. I would first give my heartfelt thanks for the Christmas gifts you sent to me and the children. May the Almighty God bless you very much.
I have sent some of the photos which we managed to take. You will see all the children very happy and checking the boxes, you will see them playing with the yooyo. You will see me opening my gifts while the children are around and one of them helping me putting my necklace round my neck. I tell you it was such a great day for the orphans. You can see Julie who came to witness the children receiving their gifts. One is of the children each one with his/her blankets because the one I sent the other day, most of the orphans had gone to the bore hole to bring water for bathing, but this time they were all around and each of them participated. I can tell you this was like heaven on earth. I would again thank you for the toothpaste and tooth brushes for each of them,also the pencils and shapeners.
I don't have words to express how happy we felt.The whole place was filled with the Joy of Christmas.
God bless you.
Agnes

New Team Member

I am excited to announce the addition of a new team member dedicated to helping us here at Fair Havens and also to feeding the hungry. His name is Ryan Peaslee. He is a biologist for the state of Alabama and expert fish farmer. He recently read the newspaper article in the Mobile Press about us and was moved. So, he called me a few days ago and let me know he wanted to help. I was able to go by and meet him today. Ryan is a fine young man with a beautiful family. Drew is his wife and he has two children. Although Ryan is very busy on his job, he is going to help us with the science part of the mission. He is a very humble young man and I believe the Lord is going to use him in a great way. He is already planning to join us on the Uganda mission in June. We are excited to have him on our team.

God is blessing

Don't you just love the smiles on these little faces? Priceless!

It is hard to believe that we just met Ms Agnes and kids in Jinja in May 2007. It is also hard to fathom now fast the Lord wants to do His will in our lives. It may not seem like much but the sell of the necklaces has brought stability to Ms Agnes and the children. The Lord has faithfully provided opportunity to sell the necklaces and produce income for the children. Attached is a picture of the kids with their new blankets that were brought by the sell of the necklaces and through donations of some very kind folks. All the children are in school and all are eating regularly. We hope to do more projects as time goes on. See our project list on the fairhavensministries.com web site. Will you help? We need to continue to sell necklaces and also we need to go and do some work on site. Would you like to join in with us? You can join in by going with us, or by praying for us or by donating monies to fund projects or you can do all three. Just write to me at winterrb7@myway.com
