Dear Friend of CrossWorld,
We desire to keep you informed of what God is doing in CrossWorld, first so that you can pray, and secondly so that you might share these things with others, and personally ask God what He would have you to do about taking His glory to the nations. Following is a brief word about a critical need in Haiti, that affects the summer camp that Bonita Sparling will be involved in in July. Would you pray with us this Thursday and in the days ahead? We'd sure be grateful. We'll let you know when the answer comes.

When does a Christian fast? When they long to hear from God more than they long for food.
The water situation on the plateau in Haiti is critical. Holding camp there would be impossible without water. Yet, we know that these precious children need to have a week of fun where they can play together, pray together, study God's Word together and receive an abundance of hugs, smiles and encouragement. Camp runs from July 14 to the 21. It will take a lot of rain to fill the huge cistern behind Manis and Judy's house, but, GOD CAN DO THIS!
Thursday, June 14, we are setting aside as a day of fasting and prayer. If you would like to join us, we would be thrilled. The God, whose creative power not only brought forth water but set its boundaries, can surely fill the cistern to over-flowing, at the same time, watering this parched land and filling up the water holes that the people depend on.
Between now and then, I would ask that you spend time looking in His Word to remind yourself again of the awesome power of the God we serve. In addition, I would ask that you find two people who will pray for you as you commit to this, that you do not become weary in prayer. We are in a battle, and while you raise the rod for Haiti, you need your Aaron and Hur to stand with you. The verse that we are using to guide our day of prayer is Ephesians 3:20 and 21 "Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations for ever and ever. Amen."
