The Economic Situation Is Difficult In Moulin Haiti!

I received the below e-mail from Pastor Luc Joesph today Nov. 23th 2013. The village Moulin is a remote mountain village in the north western region of Haiti. The Pastor Imfranc is in need of help. Please read and pray if God would have you to respond to this urgent need. It is our desire that all churches and schools be self supporting but this is not always possible in hard economic times.

Ministry in Haiti has been going forward in 2013 Praise God!

Sorry for the failure to keep you posted via the Haiti Blog for a long time. However for some reason I have not been able to log into the Blogger account for a long time .... however it appears that has change. Technology is wonderful when it works when it doesn't it's a little frustrating.

In 2013 we have had some good thing happening.

In February Pastor Luc, Pastor Maula, Brian Easley, Brad Gray, Macdo and Myself made a trip to Dominican Republic  after we had a wonderful Pastors Conference in Gonaives. both were very successful.

During our trip to Dominican we had 6 people accept Christ. Praise God.

Pastor Paul Galbraith BCC, lead a team back in April and then another team doing VBS in July. again in August an Evangelism team with real success.

As I write  in November Pastor Paul has a team doing Medical missions in Haiti this week as well as a couple of men building Bee Hives to gather Honey and promote pollination of the garden.

Wow, a lot has gone on this year, and God's hand is guiding.

Thankful for all who have gone to help and the leader who have invested in the ministry.

God Bless

2013 Summer VBS Gonaives Haiti

The 2013 VBS hosted at Christ Compassion Orphanage was a great success.  300 children, youth, and adults gathered from various churches, most from Pastor Luc's and Pastor Maula's, and some from other churches in Gonaives.  A team of 8 from Indiana and Ohio helped host the VBS, teaching the Bible Stories and Health and Hygiene lessons.  That team included Paul Galbraith, Kelsey Fisk, Nicole Newell, Harrison Bottorff, and Joseph Trimmer from Brandywine Community Church, Katie McKeeman from Park Chapel Christian Church, and Joanna Peders and Rachel Shimrock from Friends Church:  Willoughby Hills, Ohio.

 

All who attended the VBS were encouraged and challenged to pass on the knowledge gained from scripture and the health and hygiene lessons to their families and communities back home.  Between lesson and worship times, everyone enjoyed playing, eating, and spending time together.

 

Before leaving, the team passed out some clothes and toys to the children at Christ Compassion Orphanage.

 

 

 

Paul Galbraith and Kelsey Fisk stayed in Haiti to work with Pastor Luc on some projects with the Jezi Dlo water purification systems and the children at Christ Compassion Orphanage.  

 

A team led by Mick & Carla Ireton, Grace Gathering Church, Fort Wayne, IN, will travel to Gonaives August 10th-17th, to host a VBS at Gonaives Church.   This VBS will focus on evangelism to children and families in the downtown area, plugging them into the Gonaives Church.  

Orphanage Garden is growing & growing

we have been trying to purchase a plot of ground for growing a variety of produce for the orphanage children to get a more balanced diet. The Land Deal closed, the children helped plant the garden and as you can see it's growing .... they will be able to get 3-4 crops a year from this plot, and they should have excess to even sell some to help with expenses.




Gonaives Church under construction.

 The first level of the new church building for the Gonaives Church is underway, it will be a 2 story building so we have a ways to go to get this finished.

Transformation Leadership

Happy to report that our leadership conference last week was appreciated and very well received.
