Team Update

We just received this update from team one. Team one is in Jimani (border town DR/Haiti). All are safe and healthy. This morning they arrived in Jimani not knowing what to expect. Last week our DR staff member Miguel Shaul had made contact with a pastor in Port-au-Prince who needed medical supplies and food. Since then they’ve been unable to contact him due to communication lines being down, they didn’t know what to do so they prayed. The team met up with Miguel in Jimani and were praying and discussing options when Miguel jumped from the car...

How Does God Really Feel About Haiti?

God's Heart

Seth Barnes wrote a blog about how God feels about Haiti, something that was revealed to him earlier this week: God weeps for his children. He sees the horror they’re experiencing in Haiti and he feels a grief that human words cannot describe. He sees the woman holding her crushed child and he feels the sorrow coursing through her being.

Worship is the...

Ministry Strategy

Miguel returned from Haiti and has been swamped with the mapping out the next week. Here are a couple of updates on what’s been going on. You can read the full story here. Yesterday was a tough day, full of hard work, and drenched in pain. A little Haitian girl the same age as my daughter Samantha had a leg removed from the hip. The mother is returning to Port-au-Prince to search for her other two children who have been on the streets since the earthquake. I pleaded with her to reconsider taking her daughter in, knowing that...
