HAITI:

GCF is involved in the kick off of an all new project. In addition to the well drilling program and conducting medical clinics, GCF has joined Living Water Ministries in Haiti in developing a new orphanage in Gonaives. The land has been purchased and plans are being drawn up. We will keep you updated on this exciting project as it develops.

In February 2018 our team, led by medical doctors Doug Wilsey and Mike Kelly, conducted four medical clinics around Gonaives and Port-au-Prince, serving over 600 patients desperately needing medical care. (See prior post here) For many this is the only chance they have to see a doctor. Depending on funds, the doctors want to start going twice a year in order to give these people consistent medical care.

GCF also continued supporting our water well drilling and purification filter systems installation program. To-date, the Haitian team has drilled 45 wells at as many Christian churches. To God be the glory as his gospel goes out to those drawn in by pure water.

INDIA:

You may recall that about 3 years ago our GCF well drilling training team went to Vijayawada, India and trained a team there on using the Water4 manual well drilling equipment. Since then they have drilled multiple wells through Charlie Abro missionary and founder of Light India Initiative. 

GCF also established a woman’s sewing training center and annually provide funds for cloth purchase for the trained women there. 

We also provide funds on a monthly basis for food to a small Christian orphanage in Vijayawada that houses approximately 15 children. 

MEXICO:

Over the years several of our members have done mission work through Sunnybrook Christian Church in Piedra Negras, Mexico. GCF continued to send monthly financial support for the Casa de Paz Orphanage there. 

LOCALLY:

GCF continued to support local organizations including Salvation Army, Mission of Hope, Wings of Hope, Meals on Wheels, and Our Daily Bread food pantry just to name a few, in addition to different benevolent needs of people in our community.
