I am pleased to announce that effective Monday, March 8, Mr. Fulton Hawk will be joining the Del Oro program department as our youth program specialist.
Fulton comes to our division after having served as member of the territory's youth department team. He brings countless skills in youth programming, graphic design and public speaking, but most of all, a fervent love for the Lord and an intense passion for getting young people excited about Jesus and serving Him through the mission of The Salvation Army.
And yes...that adorable little girl Isabella and his fabulous wife Chrissy will be coming along too. I would ask that you pray for Fulton and his family as they transition to the area. I know when they arrive you will do all you can to make them feel a welcome part of our wonderful Del Oro division!

The Jackson Family
Please lift up the Jackson family in your prayers. Since the funeral of Mrs. Jackson (Red Shield F.U.T.U.R.E. Director), there has been a lot of media attention revolving around the funeral parlor misplacing the body. May the Lord strengthen the Jackson family during this time of loss, and dealing with the media. May the Lord comfort and give them His Peace.

From Maj. Jeannie B
Here's an additional prayer request: Majors Marquez from THQ and others were to meet for lunch today. The Marquez' were given the wrong address and went into a restaurant (the wrong one?!). They were in uniform, the gal who met them has an Officer brother in New York. He has liver cancer-the Dr's went in to remove it but it was inoperable. The sister had just found out, and asked for prayer.
From Capt. Dave Allen
I was just informed (about 10:15PM, Friday January 29) that Virginia Russell was Promoted to Glory. Many people knew this wonderful lady. Our Lord is now taking care of her. Please pray for her sister, Ruth, Daughter, Joyce Ann, her two sons Steve and Allan and Family and friends.

From our Divisional Commander
We received word today of the passing of Cadet Misty Raup's grandfather, Paul Heringer, who died of natural causes in his home in Sidney, MT. Mr. Heringer was a great man of faith and loved people immensely. Both he and his wife were members of the Missionary Alliance Church. A service for Mr. Heringer is set for spring or early summer to allow for everyone in the family to travel. They are expecting treacherous weather in Montana this weekend, so a brief burial service is planned with the few that are there for now.
From the General Re Haiti
Dear Colleagues in Christ,
The whole world is by now fully aware of the devastating earthquake which hit Haiti on Friday, 12 January 2010. This was just six weeks after my wife and I made an official visit to Haiti to conduct the Caribbean Territory Congress. During our visit we drove often through the very streets and past the very landmarks (such as the Presidential Palace), that are now in ruins.
We thank God for the swift and pragmatic lead being given by the territorial leaders, Colonels Onal and Edmane Castor, who originate from Haiti.
During our visit we met Majors Lucien and Marie Lamartinière, the divisional leaders for the Haiti Division, together with all the officers in Haiti. We were impressed by their devotion to their callings and to their delight at being in Army service. The local officers and soldiers, and the junior soldiers, were full of enthusiasm. The impassioned singing still rings in our ears. The fervent prayers remain a powerful memory. Our numerical strength in Haiti represents fifty percent of the soldiers of the whole Caribbean Territory.
Therefore, my main purpose in writing to you is to ask that you once again call your territories / commands to prayer for Haiti on Sunday, 31 January and Sunday, 7 February 2010. Recent International News Releases have already requested prayer support. Please pray for:
the citizens of Haiti whose homes and livelihoods have been destroyed;
the children of Haiti, many of whom lie injured;
the bereaved families, too many to number at the present time, and with corpses still lying untended in the streets as I write;
those in government and in public service in Haiti trying desperately to restore a semblance of structure and order;
members of the international community bringing medical and other relief;
our own Salvation Army personnel from territorial headquarters in Kingston, Jamaica, and from overseas territories and International Headquarters, ministering to the needs of both body and soul in the Name of Christ;
Please refer to the International Headquarters website and that of the Caribbean Territory, as well as other territorial websites, for moving and graphic pictures which can support your call to your comrades for fervent prayers, over and above the encouragement you have already given to that end.
I am most deeply grateful to you all and to Salvationists everywhere for your godly and compassionate responses to this major tragedy.
As we pray for Haiti and for those bringing merciful relief and help, let us exercise strong faith that the hand of Almighty God will somehow bring good out of tragedy and chaos. We cling tenaciously to our belief that God can and will do this.
With my deep thanks.
Yours in Christ,
Shaw Clifton
