Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
We are in Port au Prince getting supplies. Praise the Lord! We have the truck! Please pray for our trip and the truck taking our roofing supplies up the mountain. We will be heading out early Friday morning.
Thanks to all for your continued support and prayers. All, no matter how big or small helps and God multiplies. Your PRAYERS are so important. Words just can't express what all of you mean to us.
If all goes well and no problems or unforeseen expenses, we should have enough to get the roof on and moved in.
Quote from Jon Courson commentary "We will become shrunken little people if all we are concerned about is our little world. The Lord desires us to be big people-expansive in our view of His world and a compassion for the lost." Acts 1:8 says we shall be (not should be) His witnesses. Matthew 28:19&20 says to GO ye therefore (not if we want to) but a command.
Imagine what would happen if all Christians were sharing Christ while meeting needs of the poor (by feeding, clothing, etc), sick, in prison, etc., just like Jesus said in Matthew 25, in our communities, country and around the world. I believe true revival would break out and many would come to know Jesus as Savior and Lord. There would not be any need for government to intervene and try to tell us what we can and cannot do. Think about it.
As we do the above in Haiti, we have seen it open doors for the Gospel. Some accept Jesus as we minister, but, sadly, some reject it. Hell is very real, we need to be on our knees and out on the streets wherever we are. Missions should be a priority in our church and in our personal lives wherever God has us planted.
We are excited to be a part of what God is doing in NW Haiti and you should be also as you are a part by giving and praying, and some of you have gone and I believe more of you will come and see first hand.
Prayer needs:
Our house finished so we can move in sometime in September
Items being shipped from Ohio to Haiti to be released to ship and no problems

God's blessings,
Terry and Carolyn
