Bethel
Dear Friends,
We first wrote about the village of Bethel in our June 2004 newsletter. Here is an excerpt from that letter.
This past Tuesday, some of us went along with Pastor Diogene and his Port-au-Prince team to share in a Bible Study in the village of Bethel. This is the village we were introduced to through [...]
Dear Friends,
It seems this week everyone is looking back over the past decade. Some make lists of the best and the worst. Some relate memorable experiences and stories. Some merely reflect on where we’ve come these last ten years.
I actually did this – somewhat unintentionally – a couple of months ago. I was doing some [...]
Dear Friends,
Pastor Diogene often asks me to extend his greetings and appreciation to his friends and supporters in America – so on behalf of Pastor Diogene, “Thank You so much for partnering with us in reaching out to the lost of Haiti.”
A couple of weeks ago Pastor Diogene presided over six marriages in the village [...]
Dear Friends,
Thank you so much for all of your support. It is such a blessing to reflect on this past year, seeing how God has used many of His people across the United States and Canada to meet the needs of the poorest of the poor in the country of Haiti. We have seen many [...]
Dear Friends,
In early February we had a short term mission team from Southridge Community Church in Langley, BC, join us in Tricotte for nine days. They took over 100 soccer balls and uniforms with them and put on six mini soccer camps for children in our schools and orphanage. The kids really enjoyed learning a [...]
Dear Friends,
As we begin this year it is our desire to continue to share the gospel of salvation through Jesus Christ to the Haitian people. We’re not always sure exactly how God wants us to do that. Isaiah 55:8-9 says “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the [...]
Dear Friends,
I just returned from four and a half weeks in Haiti. A team from Grace Community Church in Auburn, WA, spent the past ten days with me ministering in the Tricotte area. We were able to show the Jesus Film five times with many children responding to the Gospel invitation. When we showed it [...]
Dear Friends,
I just got back from ten days in Haiti. Due to the extreme rainy weather conditions, I couldn’t get to Tricotte. The rivers were too high and the roads were too muddy. So I spent the time in Port-au-Prince. That wasn’t my plan but I keep learning that it’s not my plans that matter. [...]
Dear Friends,
“Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done. Sing to Him, sing praise to Him; tell of all His wonderful acts.” I Chr. 16:8-9. We do give thanks to the Lord for all He has done! We do desire to tell of all His [...]
Dear Friends,
I extend greetings to you from Pastor Diogene and his wife. They, along with a team of 50 believers from his Tricotte and Port-au-Prince churches, spent December 21 – 25 sharing the gospel at an evangelistic crusade in the village of Bethel. Pastor Diogene was so excited as I talked to him on the [...]
