Welcome

(continued from home page.)

First, we work with missionaries and ministries already on the front line, and secondly we approach each challenge in a creative and individual way.

We began our efforts 6 years ago, bringing supplies to several orphanages in Haiti. While visiting the missionaries and nannies that ran the orphanages we realized the desperate need for diapers, and started sewing them ourselves. Then others joined in our diaper making efforts. Today we have groups of women who sew, and others who donate material.

When Christian Freedom International told us about their "self-help" program for persecuted Christians, and showed us the lovely handcrafted items these Christian brothers and sisters were making, we started offering those handcrafts at our Missions Marketplace. This created thousands of dollars worth of sales. These sales directly help our persecuted brothers and sisters in Thailand, Burma, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and Laos to support themselves.

Later our trips to Haiti took us to the streets and to the homes of desperately poor Haitian families. We responded with WORK Haiti a program that brings work to these families. Now, one family at a time is being transformed from dependency to self sufficiency.

We hope you will enjoy a leisurely trip through our site and that you will learn more about The Least of These. We invite you to find your own unique way of becoming involved.
