The eyes of the Lord watch upon everybody and everything in this wide World.

God will pay you back. Looking for Psalms 41.
Will keep in touch.
Your sincere friend,
Pastor Geordany

Halfway There!
Due to a bit of pushing and thanks to a few stunning contributions, the 2011 Haiti Medical Mission fund has just surpassed the $2K mark....with two months to go! PaPal has been giving me fits, requesting all this documentation to ensure my fundraising is "legit," so I have provided them with ample papwerwork with regards to the Mt. Carmel Orphanage, Pastor Geordany, and the Mt. Pleasant Church of the Brethren. However, the hospital contributions have really picked up this week thanks to some very socially-minded doctors and nurses....they saw me scramble last year and do in two weeks' time what I have two months' luxury to perform this time around.
As we head into this Thanksgiving Holiday, we have much to be thankful for, not least of which is each morning we wake up safe, in warmth, in health, and surrounded by our loved ones. But we should also give thanks that we are not starving, dying of cholera, or living in a tent city with displaced/deceased family scattered to the the four corners of a third-world land.
Thank you everyone who has contributed so far!

Off and Running....
Well, in one week the Medical Mission has passed the $1000 mark...a pretty decent start. Last year the entire project cost about $4500, but that included airfare, which I will take care of myself this time. In addition to food, medications, and supplies, dollars were used to hire Hatian travel guides/bodyguards, gasoline for the generators (everything at the orphanage is run on generator power, and gas sells at a premium), and some construction supplies to expand the orphans' bunk room (one 8' 2x4 in Haiti....$40!!). So....I make my appeal....let's keep the donations coming,
Special thanks so far to Hurricane Mikey, Angy, VegasLindaLou, Tim M, Marc R, Paul N, David W, and a whole host of others for getting me to this point.
I plan on posting an entire contributor list as the trip gets closer.

Hello Dr. Eric,
Hope this email finds you and family well. The GOD,s mercy upon us because through the earthquake, the cholera and the hurricane Tomas during 9 months, we are safe. How great
our God? He is good all the times. Praise His Holy name.
We never cease to pray for your comeback to help this poor people in their needs. The Island of Haiti is really suffering for everything.
Dr. Eric my friend, trust that, my problems are increasing day after day. I am fighting and
staying on my knees praying to take care of the orphans. You remember that before the earthquake I got 22 children, after that, I got 34 and now I have 41 orphans children.
They cannot stay at home without school. The Lord blessed me they all going to school but,I have lot of money to pay soon. It,s very hard for my wife and I. We need more patience, more love to support them.
They living in the new building, praise the Lord. If God leads you to the electrician and painting people who has same burden with you, bring them to help us please.
Ask your folks to pray for my ministry because you know I have 16 poor churches to take care and some schools to pay teachers. Let them know to trust with me, God can do all.
Dr. Eric please, try to find some relief for the orphans suffering everyday.
Anytime you have money for them, send it via Western Union or Money Gram and after 2 hours I will receive it. Just send me the confirmation number.
Please, share our sincere greetings to your wife and children. Try to bring more people with
you next months. May God continue to bless your ministry.
Your Haitian friend,
Pastor Geordany Joseph

Dear friends,
This January's destination will be the same- Pignon, Haiti- an inland town overrun with orphaned children from the earthquake. The caretaker is Pastor Geordany Joseph, a man of about 70, and his wife. The nurse practitioner and I will pay our own travel expenses and incidentals, and would like to let the prospective contributor know that all proceeds will go to purchasing medications for the clinic, as well as basic necessities for the children (water purifiers, hand sanitizer, etc...).Simply click on the button below to make a contribution to my medical mission to Haiti that much more successful. Thank you!
If you would like to donate but not thru PayPal, contact me at edk1228@gmail.com and I can give you an address to send a check or money order. I also need to let you know that since I am not a federally recognized charity, tax deductions do not apply.
