Since my daughter introduced me to the Fuller Center, we have been energized by Millard's life history and vision. Now comes the Haitian crisis, and we -- along with MANY in our area in various organizations (church, charitable, ...) -- are looking for the best way to help after our initial financial support to organizations we trust to get the aid to the people.

There are many Haitian members of the congregation my wife and I attend. I would like to seek sponsorship by my church of one or more of the homes proposed. However, when one member who has been a Haitian supporter for years (and was funding a school for computer training in Haiti long before this crisis) called, he was not able to get any specifics about where in Haiti the homes will be built. My subsequent attempt to find out was also unsuccessful. Is this information available now? Thanks, and God bless.

[From Fuller Center Staff:  Thanks for your note, Bill, and for your interest in helping Haiti.  At this time, the Fuller Center does not have an exact location for rebuilding in Haiti.  We are working out those details as quickly as possible right now.  You have been added to our e-mail list to receive updates.  Any others who wish to receive updates, please send a request to info@fullercenter.org or check our Haiti page often.  Thanks!]

It was nice working on another house Feb 3rd. It made the day less mournful. I'll be sending the best of the pictures that I took yesterday to the Fuller Center.

LEAD THOU US ON, KINDLY LIGHT!

On this first anniversary of the passing away of our most beloved founder president, Millard Fuller, we, the Board of the Trivandrum Fuller Center for Housing, vow to follow his footsteps in the light shed by the torch borne by him from above and to accomplish the mission of 'eradication of poverty housing' as envisaged by his humanitarian ministry. Adv T H Lawrence, Chairman, Trivandrum Fuller Center for Housing, Kerala, India. February 03, 2010.

Thanks you so much for your [David Snell's] time and your sharing at the conference in Shreveport. It was so good to meet you in person to see you are the same in real life with having fun with this incredible ministry. Blessings to you as you serve. If I can be of asssistance, or our group, let us know as we are getting to learn the ropes as to where we fit into the whole picture. I did talk with Linda Fuller while at the conference and I am so hoping she will be able to make a trip to Grand Rapids before or following Indianapolis Build to speak to our ECON Club and some LARGE churches where this is interest and funding, and a book signing, etc.
