Haiti update




Greetings prayer partners and supporters. I just had a very successful trip to Las Cayes, Haiti. We spent a week ministering to Haitians on the southern coast of the island through prayer and by providing medical care. Our team of five (one MD and his wife, one Pharmacist, one RN and me) joined the local missionaries to run the clinic. We saw about 700 patients and I saw almost 400 people wanting glasses. We had one Haitian that knew English come to translate for us. He had just been released from prison and was trying to get his life back. After serving with us a couple of days he spoke to Dr Jim and was led in the sinner's prayer. We are praying that God will radically transform this man so that through his testimony many will come to know Christ. In addition to running the medical clinic we were priviledged to help James and Rachael (the missionaries) run a childrens outreach. 350 children from the community came to worship, play games, and hear an evangelist speak. Every child was also given a bag of rice and other food to take home. It was fun to feed the children both spiritually and physically. Thank you for your prayers and support. We couldn't do what God has called us to do without your help. God bless you.
