Dear Friends and Family,
We all know what happened on January 12, 2010, when a 7.0 earthquake hit Port-Au-Prince, Haiti. Since that day the world has scrambled to provide relief for the Haitian people who were completely devastated. I myself am no different in trying to find ways to go to Haiti to help with the relief effort, praying about finding an organization to go with to Haiti. As you well know by now, I have become a more seasoned missionary and have had the opportunity to help people throughout Latin America.
Throughout the last 4 years, I've had the opportunity to work with Global Expeditions and have gone on 5 trips with them. They recently informed me that they would be taking a small group of seasoned missionaries to Haiti to help with the relief effort, and they wanted to know if I was interested.
In Haiti we will be helping set up and serving in a refugee camp, we will be rebuilding an orphanage and facilitating medical care for the orphans. I do not know the specific details, but I will update you as they become available to me.
I will be leaving on March 16th, and returning on March 24th, but I need to have all my funds in by March 1st. That leaves a little over 27 days for me to raise the money. I know it's a quick trip and a quick decision for you to pray about supporting me.
I can't do this alone, I need your help. The trip costs $1352 plus airfare to and from Miami International Airport, which I researched and calculated to be another $350, coming to a total of $1700. I pray that you would be able to help support me on this trip, and together we can help rebuild Haiti.
Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in supporting me. Thank you for your prayers and support throughout the years.
In His Grip,
Joe Diaz-Romero
