This is a picture of our sponsor child. Her name is Richelandie Bris and she lives in Haiti. Today, October 4th, is the first day of school for children in Haiti. Richelandie attends the Bonnette school which suffered some cracks from last year's earthquake but is otherwise safe. Other schools in the area were not as lucky and still require repairs.
Richelandie is holding a picture of the folder that we sent to her, she really enjoyed looking at all of the MCS students and learning about our school.
Last year the staff and students raised enough funds to send Richelandie to school. This year we hope to do the same. We will have another collection for Richelandie at our annual Christmas pageant which will be held on December 14th. We need to raise $385 for her to go to school in 2011.
We also continue to pray for Richelandie and the rest of Haiti, and encourage you to do the same.
In His name,
MCS Staff
