2009 Gifts of Hope Dinner A great big THANK YOU to everyone who attended our Gifts of Hope Dinner in Vancouver on Thursday, October 22nd. We were thrilled to be in Vancouver for a second year, recognizing several new and returning individuals. We were thrilled to introduce the new Gifts of Hope Catalogue, filled with practical ways of supporting impoverished people and indigenous ministries in Eastern Europe. We were also blessed to have Andriy Korniychuk from Rivne, Ukraine. Andriy is the lead pastor of Grace Baptist Church. Grace Baptist Church is a young, fruitful and growing church that has impacted the communities in and around Rivne. through Andriy’s illustrations he gave us a greater understanding how his church members serve and reinforced the effectiveness of supporting indigenous pastors and ministries. Thanks to this evening HART was able to raise awareness for HART’S Child Sponsor Project, ministering to orphans, providing micro loans, supporting summer camp ministries and supporting indigenous ministries and pastors. From this evening HART was also able to raise funds for these ministries and others found in the Gifts of Hope Catalogue! THANK YOU to all who graciously gave this night with your time and finances.
