This week I'm going to put a pause to the normal leadership stuff and talk about ideas that have been coming in for helping the people of Haiti. My prayer is that we can share some ideas and by communicating help the people of Haiti better.
My prayer in all of this is that the church rise up as one and flood the nation of Haiti with food, water, shelter, support, rebuilding effort, workers, and of course, the gospel.
One idea that came to me yesterday really caught my attention: A benefit concert. I expect that at anytime, the worldwide music community will start having benefit concerts for the people of Haiti. Why can't we do the same? Surely in your community there are some bands and a central location that you could use to put on a benefit concert.
As for me, I love the idea. After talking with my leadership development team last night, we decided to start putting it together. It's going to take some work. In fact, it's going to take a lot of work. But it's worth it. I'll let you know what organization we will partner with to get the proceeds to Haiti.
In the meantime, share some of your ideas with me. Let me know what you're up to to help the people of Haiti, and how your leadership team is getting involved.
Training Tomorrow's Leaders Today,
Matt
