October 2007
Dear friends and family,
We have had information
about the new property posted for a while on our website, but I thought I would
share it in this newsletter as well. Over the past year we
have been in contact with the Department of Human Development regarding a
children’s home or a women’s center. We
asked them to tell us if there was a greater need for a women’s center or a childrens’
home. They have finally recommended the
opening of a women's center. They feel the women's center is more needed
now and by meeting the needs of mothers in abusive situations we will also be
meeting the needs of their children. The
women’s center will house and train women that have been removed from abusive
situations and their children. We
believe that we were sent to Belize to minister to the children of this
country. We have gladly embraced this
new plan.
The goal of the Southern Region for the next year includes building a new
camp on the Gordon property. 2008 will
be the first year of this project. We
hope to finish the first dorm, the dining hall, the camp director’s home and
possibly the chapel. Click Here for details! These are ambitious plans, but teams are
lining up fast and everyone seems eager to get the job done. It’s always amazing to see God work. Also, during June and July of 2008, we hope
to renovate the existing camp. The dorms
will be used to house women and their children.
The other buildings on the property will be used for training in various
skills such as computer skills, cooking, or sewing. The plan also includes a first aid room and a
clothes closet for those with special needs.
Please pray for the work as we have already begun to develop the Gordon
property.
Gary Williams brought a team down from Georgia led by Sam and Kim Gamble at
the end of October. The team worked at
We are constantly amazed when we see how God works through the teams He
sends to Belize. This particular team
was made up of a great praise and worship team and a puppet team which the
children loved. They also had several
members of the team who know sign language.
The amazing thing about this is one of the girls in the village is deaf
and has learned sign language. The team
members were able to minister to her.
She was able to understand the church services for possibly the first
time. As a result of meeting her they
learned of the Cayo Deaf Institute in Western Belize and wanted to visit. We knew right where it was and had been by
there but never stopped. We were able to
take them by the Institute to meet the directors and now they plan to return
and possibly minister at the Institute. God is good!
