FHL Week 2009 Recap
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Greetings in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ! What a privilege to work alongside all of you in these past few months. FHL Week 2009 was the largest impact we had in terms of number of salvations, people we touched, and projects completed and generated. The overall value of our projects and services in all categories saw significant improvement. It truly became a Year of Hope for many in Indianapolis and the hope within us became the tangible expression of God’s love to His people. Heaven came down and His Presence was evident in our communities.
Words cannot adequately express the miracles that happened (and are still happening) during of Faith, Hope and Love Week 2009. But here is a partial list below:
- 2 communities were transformed both spiritually & physically (Riverwood & Elizaville)
- 25 individuals were brought to salvation
- Creative miracles were witnessed, such as:
- people who were in wheelchairs started to gain strength in their legs and started pushing their own wheelchair (or jumped)
- transformed individuals
- Countless projects were generated for continuance after FHL Week 2009
- Numerous new relationships were started
- FHL reached out even farther to areas such as:
- Lebanon
- Avon
- North of Noblesville
- More businesses provided resources
- The Indianapolis Deputy Mayor preached the Gospel at the Circle in front of the general public
Thank you so much for allowing me to serve with you. As I mentioned in the past, FHL Week is just a beginning of the continued flow of God’s blessings to our communities. In the weeks to come, I would like to touch base with you to see FHL could serve with you or how you could join us in serving together.
I am sure that it is almost impossible for me to thank everyone personally so please extend my sincere gratitude. It’s been and will be my honor to work alongside with you again!
FHL Week 2010 is July 25-31, The Year of Love
Eph. 6:23-24, “Peace to the brothers (and sisters), and love with faith from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace to all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.”

By Merlin Gonzales, Pres., Faith Hope and Love
Recently, Habitat for Humanity asked Faith Hope and Love to partner with them to build a house for a Hispanic family. FHL President, Merlin Gonzales thought it would be good that the house be built by different nationalities. Ralph Taylor, International Affairs Coordinator for Indianapolis Mayors office agreed to call a meeting at WFYI Ch 20 on Monday, May 11th.
The meeting resulted with several ethnic groups to partner in building the house in the Martindale-Brightwood area starting June 3- July 11. The immediate need is to staff the June 3th –June 5th house build days. Two shifts are offered, from 7:30am to 11:30am and from 12:30pm to 4:30pm.
