Dear friends, “My God is so great, so strong and so mighty, there’s nothing my God cannot do!” We sang the Sunday school favorite with the children in the Port au Prince orphanage as part of their nightly going to bed routine… I knew it to be true. But, Lord, the need is so great… […]
Fresh eyes…
Thinking of Mothers…
This past weekend we all celebrated Mother’s Day in one form or another. We either honored our mothers or our children paid tribute to us….. It made me think of our children in Haiti, the ones we all sponsor. Do they celebrate Mother’s Day? I really have a hard time picturing a day off for […]
Vacation Bible School in Nan Wo
We just returned from Haiti! Crosswater Church sent a team of youth group members and staff to hold the 1st ever Vacation Bible School for the 150 children of HIH’s Nan Wo school.

The dream has been carried by Dick […]
We can make a difference!
We have been home from Haiti two days and thank you for your prayers; I know they sustained us. It was hot, sticky, dirty, full of emotions, beautiful and wonderful. I love each person who came to serve and am so proud of their willingness to sweat together, eat strange foods, and laugh at ourselves […]
Back to School For the First Time
Thank you so much for your commitment to sponsor a child through Hope in Haiti! I never thought I would be writing a monthly update of any kind, but your response to helping these kids in Haiti has been wonderful and is spurring us on to reach more children and spread the hope of Jesus […]
Welcome to Hope in Haiti
Welcome to Hope in Haiti. The dream began in 1987, with a desire in the hearts of Dick and Dixie Montgomery to share the love of Christ by taking their family to work with children in a poor country. In 1989, with eight kids, they pulled up their roots in Duvall, Washington, cried some tears […]
