Bernadette and Eric Lindquist.

St. Francis prayed for God to make him a, “channel of His peace.”
He also prayed, “where there is despair, let me sow hope.”

The Linquists live this prayer!

When our friends in Haiti suffer, the Lindquist Family feels their pain, and without calling attention to themselves, they respond in love. 

They have traveled to Haiti with HART on mission (Eric was officially our oldest HART missionary…and yet, the most cheerful and grateful)!

When they learned from Fr. Louis Merosne that people were meeting for church under tarps held up by tree branches - they leapt into action, and helped get a beautiful church built (“Holy Family”). 

And when Bernadette learned that HART needed a treasurer, she left her new retirement status to serve on our board, where she is greatly appreciated and revered. 

St. Francis continued his prayer stating that, “it is in giving that we receive.”

The Lindquist Family receives love from the people in Haiti, and from our HART Family. 

Thank you, Jesus, for the Lindquist Family. They are wonderful channels of your peace to many people.
