CareBag

The Women's Club here in my community in Florida had a speaker named Rozanne Brown last year.  She is with an organization called CareBag.  I was captivated by her dedication and passion to help homeless people.  I learned that others felt the same way.

CareBag Mobile Showers

"Every man, woman, boy, and girl, should be able to have access to the basic right of life that is proper hygiene. We will accomplish this through our Mobile Shower Unit.

Access to water and sanitation is a basic human right. It is important because it’s about so much more than just a shower or using a private toilet – it’s about providing dignity to people."

When we were on the Power Tour last summer, my friends and I
saved our toiletries each night from our hotels.   
We ended up with a goodly amount.

 

Some friends and I have also saved from other trips and cruises.

Homeless Times

A couple of us from here at Savanna Club (a 55+ community) plan 

to go to the grand opening of the CareBag Mobile Shower Trailer.

CareBag Dedication 

This will be an ongoing need so I, for one, will continue saving my hotel toiletries.  

Would you care to join me?

CareBag also qualifies for Amazon's Smile program.  

Our Mission Team in Haiti in 2019

A mission team from my church here in Florida went to Haiti very recently.

We've been working with a sister church there for some years. 

They discovered that there are protests going on because of the rising costs of fuel and corruption in the country.   Rocks were thrown at their shuttle bus, which sounded like gunshots. There were some injuries to people on their team.
The next morning their bus was accompanied by police in front of and behind them.  They managed to make it to the airport where a plane had come for them. They were really shaken up but were sad they didn't get to see "their kids" again.

The man who reported to our congregation said he was reading it because he was too emotional to just tell it.    However, they do plan to go back when things settle down.  

"Thousands of Haitians took to the streets of Port-au-Prince on Friday in the latest display of public fury at the government over rampant corruption, economic malaise and other grievances." Danger in Haiti
Haiti Travel Advisory as of February 14, 2019

Please, let us pray for the poor people of Haiti - that things will settle down soon and our mission team will be able to return in peace.
