GREETINGS IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST

AS WE CELEBRATE WITH THANKSGIVING AND A MERRY CHRISTMAS CELEBRATING OUR LORD'S BIRTH, we also want to say thank you to each of you, who make it possible for us to continue to serve in the country of Haiti since 2004.  

EXPANDING our TERRITORY!!

As we continue to serve there and possibly in the Dominican Republic (we can drive there from Haiti) in 2020, we ask that you continue to pray for us as we seek God's direction in all we do.

2019 was an exciting year: 
  • We grew to 18 groups and a possibility of two more groups soon.  
  • The prison ministry and how many of the inmates have accepted Christ and want more Bible study.
  • The summer conferences on the book of Ephesians were a great success
  • The Faithful Four continuing to grow and do more as Terry has taught and been an example to them
  • The book I (Carolyn), with Terry's help with the stories and Alan Balmer helped edit finished and published
  • The success of the small business loans
  • The success of the school presentations by Pastor Rousier and his church
  • Put some roofs on church buildings

We expect 2020 to be another exciting year:
  • The groups continue to grow all across Haiti
  • God expanding our territory
  • The Faithful four start a mission church in Port Au Prince
  • The prison ministry growing
  • The summer conferences will be in zones of Haiti so more pastors can attend
  • Another couple with their family coming to help
  • Going to the Dominican Republic with one or more of the Faithful Four to start a pastors group there and disciple
  • Continuing the small business loans
  • Praying God will make a way so Pastor Rousier can continue to go into the schools with sexual purity and the gospel
  • Praying God will make a way to continue working on Pastor Paul's church building (the one we attend in Haiti)
  • Pray for the rioting and unrest to come to peace so we can return to Haiti in January.  Right now you can't travel around the country so we can't travel up to the Northwest.
James 1:22 Be ye doers of the Word and not hearers only

Maybe you would like to help with a small business loan for a pastor and his family as a Christmas gift that keeps on giving because as they pay it back, it goes to help another pastor and family start a business to provide for their needs.
Also when we return, we would like to give all those that have helped in the ministry this past year a bag of rice. If you would like to help with that, the cost is $25 a bag and will need 16 bags.
