Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ

 

We are praying for rain and patiently waiting for God to answer that prayer.  Please pray with us, it is needed, especially for gardens!

 

• Sexual purity till marriage:12 schools around 900 students.
• Pastors in the market: around 50 salvations and many more have recommitted their lives to the Lord. Glory to God in the Highest!!
• Given out 24 goats 20 to go.  One of the goats just had 2 kids, the herds are starting to build.  Praise the Lord!!
• Film ministry is going great. See set up picture below.
• Ladies have been going out to share the love of Jesus.
• The children on Wednesday's have been learning the Easter story. See picture below.
• Sewing classes are going great too, hope to be able to continue them in September.

 

Would like to help the pastors continue their work in unity by helping them with VBS' again this summer.  Last summer they had 2100 children with 290 salvations.  Let us know if you would like to help with that again.  It averages out to be about $50 per church involved.  We anticipate having 30 churches this summer.

 

 

Word of testimony from a supporter.  He said "You came to the Church of living Water in Warsaw and shared of your work in Haiti.  I'm on a fixed income.  I prayed and this is what the Lord God showed me to give." He sent $50 to purchase a goat. 

 

Saw on the wall of a church here Roman 1:16

 

We will be back in Missouri April 14 through May 24.  We need a vehicle to borrow during this time if anyone has an extra one to spare those few weeks.

We have two young ladies from Jackson Mississippi going back with us to spend the summer, then plan to return to our area to work full time.  They will be working with an orphanage in our area and staying with us for now and helping with some of our ministries too as they have time.  We look forward to their stay with us.  They are taking a huge step of faith.  They have been teaching and did not renew their contract for next year as they feel called to Haiti.

 

FYI:2015 monthly budget:

1. Rent for our house: $225
2. Salaries for our workers $1000 (interpreter, helper, sewing teacher, abstinence teachers)
3. Ministry/supplies (pastors, wives, children, sewing, school presentations) $500
4. Food, internet, gas and diesel, propane, phone, travel, truck expenses, life insurance and misc $1500
5. Needs in the community: Hard to put a figure on this one. We help when we can and have the resources.

 

We have $1100 committed each month because God laid it on your hearts, and many of you give throughout the year as God lays it on your heart also.  God has been faithful to provide for our needs and we know He will continue to do so through His people.  Thank you for being obedient.  You are a blessing to us and the Haitian people.

 

Persevere in godliness, it is the safest

place you/we can be.
