Six of our members just returned from mission trips. Five were in Haiti together: Ruby, Debra, Sherrie, Karen and Michelle while Nancy was with another team in Peru.
Courtesy of Tim, highlights of the Haiti trip:
The Lord allowed us all to participate as part of a powerful wave in His rising tide of love that is overtaking the shores of Haiti. Prayer warriors, those who donated, family members and those who were called to go all share equally as we celebrate the great victory that was won last week by the authority of Jesus Christ.
Those who were in Haiti got the witness the power of God's word over what is seen and unseen. They were able to witness the worldly manifestation of the spiritual battle that rages each day. They got to see God bind the schemes of the enemy. They witnessed the power of His love and Truth.
The Lord declares to all in Haiti, "I have redeemed you"...
The following are just a few examples of the redemptive work that occurred last week:
305...
...people prayed to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior at the medical clinic. The clinic was held in an area known as a 'strong hold of satan'. The gospel was presented to people on an individual or small group basis as they waited to see the Doctors. The Lord used a 75 year old man as the messenger to most of those who received Christ.
Over 1600...
...people were seen by the Doctors, Dentists and Optometrist. The overwhelming majority of these people would not be seen by local Hospitals due to their inability to pay. Medications and vitamins were distributed to all in need. Hospital arrangements were made for several patients who otherwise would not have been admitted.
Over 900...
...people were provided a free meal during the medical clinic.
Construction...
...of a new church/ multi purpose building was taken to the next stage. Materials needed to complete the final stage arrive next week.
A Container...
...loaded with construction materials and needed supplies arrived in Port Haitian. We learned as we were preparing to leave Haiti that this container would be admitted duty free. This is very rare in Haiti.
4 Rallies...
...were held in remote villages. Local churches worked together to build a platform, provide music and a sound system at each Rally. Two of the Rallies where held in front of a witch-doctor's compound. The Rallies were attended by hundreds. Strong messages from the book of Isaiah and the New Testament were delivered. The call was made for God's children to throw down their idols and return to Him. The call was made for the enemies of God to accept the Lord's offer to make peace through His Son Jesus Christ. Many responded.
An Average of 300...
...Pastors and church leaders daily attended a discipleship/leadership seminar. The four day seminar was led by an 80 year old man.
Over 1200...
....people were provided free meals at the seminars.
Radio Broadcast of 6...
...Rally messages were broadcast live, in their entirety, throughout the week

Let us all rejoice in the Lord. He has been good. He has been compassionate. He has been mighty. He has been God.
