THIS WEEKEND's NEWS
1. Haiti Relief Update
Galatians 6:10, "So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone , and especially to those who are of the household of faith."
It has been over two weeks since Port-Au-Prince, Haiti, was hit with a massive earthquake that destroyed buildings and devastated families. In response, our church has joined with dozens of other churches in an effort to bring relief and restoration into this destitute country, by partnering with
Churches Helping Churches. In doing so, we are able to strategically help the local church in Haiti, which is being greatly used of God in spreading the gospel of Christ in word and deed amidst this tragedy.
If you want to give toward this relief and rebuilding effort, please do so by writing on your cheque memo line or on the front of your offering envelope "Haiti". Thank you.
Please note: All other giving towards Harvest Brampton should be indicated simply by making cheques payable to "Harvest Bible Chapel" (not to "Harvest Bible Chapel Brampton").
