PLANS & IDEAS for FUTURE GET-TOGETHERS:
Do you have an idea for what we might do? or a great suggestion
for a place to meet? Then why not volunteer to be the host for a future get-together?! A host simply selects the location and activity for the
gathering. An activity can be just about anything -- even something as
simple as "meet at McDonald's and have lunch." Anyone on the
H.A.I.T.I. Group e-mail list is invited to submit their creative ideas for a get-together.
Simply e-mail the details to haitigroup@yahoo.com and we'll publicize it to the
list for you! The next month for which we need a
volunteer host is OCTOBER 2003.
Check out some of the things we've done together recently, below.

The people extended to us a very warm welcome, and we were all blessed by our worship experience that evening.
