Kingdom Builders International Prepares to Build school in Haiti

Dear Sir or Madam,

Thank you for your interest in helping us reach out to the victims of the earthquake in Haiti.

We have plans to build a school in Mayan. It is a small village setting in the foothilds of the mountains. It is located on the coastline, northwest of Port-au-Prince.

It is our desire to build a school in their village where they may attend free of charge if they are unable to pay the small tuition fee. Kingdom Builders would also supply school uniforms as well as supplies to the students on this "free" program.

Not only will this school be used for the students to receive an education but it will also serve the community as a whole by serving as a church on Sundays. We will also use the building to house "free medical clinics" to the people of Mayan & surrounding villages.

We'd like to extend the opportunity for you to partner with us as well provide education to the children of Mayan, Haiti.

Kingdom Builders Intl Inc was founded in 2006 by my late husband & myself after living and serving in Haiti since 1998. Our organization is faith base, non-profit and are under the 501c3 exemption of Wings of Faith Christian Fellowship of Grayson, Kentucky.

We believe that we are called to serve those in greater need and Haiti has always been embedded in our hearts. We love the county and her people and desperately want to do all we can to meet the Haitian people's needs at this dire time.

We thank you for your interest in helping also & we look forward to how we may all work together to provide a sound education to those less fortunate in Haiti.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at any time.

God Bless,
Patti Cunningham

Grieving the Loss of a Friend

On Tuesday December 29th 2009 our good friend and ministry partner Randy Cunningham went home to be with the Lord. He had just flown to Haiti to continue his missionary work there with his Adopted son Jude. After getting to their home in Haiti, and unpacking. Randy laid down to take a nap. A while later his son Jude came into wake him and Randy was unresponsive. Jude somehow got Randy into their vehicle and drove to the U.N. There Jude was turned away and told to take Randy to a local hospital there in Haiti. By the time Jude got Randy to the hospital it was too late and Randy was pronounced dead. They believe Randy has a massive heart attack in his sleep and passed away peacefully.

At that point their son Jude was there in Haiti by himself far away from his family here in the U.S. The next day Jude had an emergency meeting to get a VISA back to the U.S.

Today January 4th 2010 Jude will be coming home. He is a young man in his 20's and has been through so much in the last week please say a special prayer for Jude. Also today is Randy's Viewing and tomorrow is the funeral. For those who have lost a parent and a close loved one will understand the pain and sorrow this family is going through. Please lift them up in prayer.

Randy and Patti Cunningham are missionaries to Haiti, Jamaica, and Uganda. They also founded Kingdom Builders International. We have only known Randy and Patti for just a year and losing Randy has really hit JMC Ministries hard. If you would like to learn more about Randy and Patti's ministry and missions work visit their myspace page at www.myspace.com/kingdom_builders_intl

They also have a P.O box posted on their myspace page that you can send cards or letters of encouragement to them during this time of grieving. We know they would appreciate them if the Lord leads you to do so.

Randy we know you are in Heaven celebrating with our Lord, and we will see you again. We love you and miss you.
