REDEEM HAITI

spence77 — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 19:50:08 +0000

Grace to the Nations is working in Haiti right now to help those affected by the earthquake. Already, a medical mission has been set up at Quesqueya Christian School and an orphanage discovered yesterday in an area that had received NO assistance is being given help and hope.

You can follow GTN and Spencer Nix at the Redeem Haiti website, where you can also give and sign up to volunteer. You can also follow Spencer’s updates on Twitter. Please pray with us and be amazed as we watch God connect the community of believers into this community of need!

GTN’s Work in Haiti Earthquake Relief

spence77 — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 03:39:53 +0000

The goal of Redeem Haiti is for the Christian church to “take up the call to action and commission with God.” The recent earthquake in Haiti has provided countless opportunities for the church to do just that. Spencer is working with our partner churches in the Dominican Republic as well as here in the States, and with many individuals within those churches. He is currently in Haiti coordinating relief efforts to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those affected by the earthquake.

Please join him and get involved by going to the Redeem Haiti website. Pray, give, volunteer, spread the word! And may God be glorified as our community of believers is connected into the community of need in Haiti!

Shoes for Street Children in Santiago, D.R.

spence77 — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 18:44:32 +0000

An opportunity has risen during my trip to the Dominican Republic. One of the ladies who works year-round with children on the streets in Santiago, Dominican Republic is attempting to give 30 children new shoes for Christmas. I would like for Grace to the Nations to assist her in this project, but I need your help. I would like to raise $300 ASAP and use these funds to buy these children shoes for Christmas. If you would consider helping it would be greatly appreciated. GIVE NOW and help a child in need this Christmas. Thank you!

The Wenceslas Project 2009

admin — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 21:54:43 +0000

I sent out a holiday newsletter last week informing our supporters that we are unable to do our regular Christmas project (The Wenceslas Project) helping local families with Christmas and sharing grace with them. I cited the fact that we had little response from past supporters and those that did respond, responded that they would be unable to help this year. However, since that holiday newsletter went out last week I have had many calls and emails from those asking about the project and desiring to help a family. Unfortunately it is too late in the process to do the normal project, however, if you, your family, your church, your business, or your Sunday School class would like to help a family in need this Christmas, I can still connect you to family in need and you are free to help as you see fit. Contact me ASAP if you’re interested.

GTN will be doing The Wenceslas Project for children in Haiti as part of the REDEEM HAITI ministry. We will be able to do much with far fewer resources. If you would like to make a donation of any size, $5 will supply a child with a great Christmas gift and a warm meal, please do so now. We would also love for you to send GTN a Christmas card, but instead of wishing us a Merry Christmas if you would simply write, “Joyeux Noël” and maybe a favorite verse, we will deliver these cards to Haitian families the week before Christmas. Send your cards to:

Grace to the Nations
P.O. Box 70
Canton, GA 30169

The deadline for delivering your cards will be Saturday, Dec. 12.

Have a very Merry Christmas and may His grace be with you.

Atlanta Flood Update: October 12, 2009

admin — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 10:21:00 +0000

Grace to the Nations (GTN) continues to work with local victims of the 2009 Atlanta Flood as well as distributing donations to others who are helping. Our focus has been on the immediate needs of food, clothing and shelter. To date GTN has distributed over 2,000 lbs of food, as well as clothing and other household needs. You, your families, your businesses and your churches have made this possible. Saying thanks seems like such a small gesture. Those who have received have been generous with their thanks. Many times the food or clothing has been far less meaningful than simply the encouragement they receive from knowing others care for them.

We would also like to say a special thanks to New Media Atlanta and ReTech South for their financial contribution and the wonderful example they have given the technology community in Atlanta. download Long Good Friday, The On that note, over half of the response Grace to the Nations received regarding the flood came through social media like Facebook and Twitter. We were able to connect with people far from our community and get them involved in ministry efforts. As Bob Dylan once sang, “The times, they are a-changin!”

I would also encourage you to go and read this story about local believers who took it upon themselves to get deeply involved and connected into the community of need.

In the days ahead we will continue to work with any local flood victims through our Life2Life Mentoring ministry as we assist them in rebuilding their lives and pointing to One who is greater than any flood. Continue to pray for the families affected, go out and get involved. HopeAtlanta is continuing to organize volunteers in ministry efforts. If you’re available, go and serve. BE the church!

Grace be with you,

Spence Nix

Atlanta Flood Update: Wednesday, September 23

admin — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 19:56:37 +0000

Been on the ground today in those areas most affected by the flood in Cherokee county. Local needs have been our first priority. I was able to give away some food and gift cards to families in need as well as evaluate the true situations of the calls we received. I’m happy to say that from all the resources gathered that the need for immediate assistance in Cherokee county is low. Those that I met that are in some need are making it with the help of neighbors and other support from friends and family, which is awesome. There are five families as of today that are still looking for shelter for an indefinite amount of time. If you are interested in meeting this need contact GTN immediately and we will go from there.

Many of you are local and are looking to help and wanting to donate supplies. And since GTN is about connecting people like you to the community of need we are expanding our search for the need to downtown Atlanta. We are attempting right now to partner with a local city church that is organizing and mobilizing for flood victims (video below). So feel free to contact me for donations of all supplies: clothes, toiletries, food, etc. We will be gathering them and taking them to the church in the city. I also hope to give you more volunteer opportunities as I meet and evaluate the needs in the city. голова болит секс

Needed items:
- Canned foods
- Toiletries of all kinds
- Underwear, socks
- Diapers
- Wipes

Atlanta Flood Update

spence77 — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 18:57:48 +0000

Grace to the Nations (GTN) is receiving a variety of calls from both supporters and those in need. We are not a disaster relief ministry (though perhaps we should start that ministry???), however we are doing what we can to assist and connect folks. Thanks for the overwhelming calls of support. Many of you have offered your time, services, and tools. Churches have offered space and resources as well. So thanks and God bless you. голова болит секс

For the most part, locally, the government services have handled the immediate needs. From the calls we’ve received homes are still flooded and wet and the clean up is yet to begin or in the initial stages. Families are devastated at the loss of much of their material possessions and those calling GTN have little to no support structure (church, family, etc.). So be praying for these families.

What is GTN currently doing? We are trying to focus on immediate needs of food, clothing, and shelter while the larger agencies (govt. and nonprofs) mobilize. We have already started the process of pointing people to other resources and we are trying to do this relationally and hold their hands and head up while dealing with larger nonprofits and the government, which can be very intimidating in and of itself. If you would like information about a specific family, perhaps you would like to come along beside them and personally encourage them and help them more intimately, please contact GTN. We will try to connect you.

That’s it for now, I’ll try to update with more information as the needs come. Follow www.facebook.com/GracetotheNations or twitter @grace2nations for more updates.
