To the Supporters of our Haiti Mission Trip: We would like to express our appreciation for your support through gifts, prayer and financially for such a rewarding experience. Following is a brief account of our teams (16 members Mission Team) trip: Port au Prince has not changed much since the Earthquake, with clearing the rubble just starting a week before we arrived. With the government being so corrupt the people have little they can say or what they are able to do. The people are a strong group. After the Earthquake we were told that they did not cry out “Why me?”, they cried out and “Repented to God”. When we arrived in Port au Prince we were welcome guest in the Guest House of Pastor Renes Deciere, working with Haiti under God. Our first step in our mission was with the girls (6 -12 years old) orphanage, surrounded by a tent city of 1000 tents and 5000 residents. Here we dismantled all of the beds, painted them and returned them to their rooms. This is one of the orphanages where our Food for Starving Children is sent. We formed relationships with the girls and shared our gifts with them, as they shared as much with us with the braiding of our hair and their talent in drama, dancing and singing. Outside the orphanage, in the Tent City we touched the lives of a number of persons. One, an 80 year old woman who lived under a tarp covering a tree branch, on the very edge of the driveway (all she had). We were able to purchase the items and build her a tent with a tarp floor and a cot so she was able to sleep off the ground. She, as well as neighboring tent residents, danced and sang praising God for the tent and cot. Another, a young boy who helped with the painting of the beds, lived alone in the Tent City and did not own a pair of shoes and was not able to attend church because of no shoes. One team member gave him a pair of his shoes and another member gave him the paint sprayer he had helped use. He now was able to find work and attend church and was very appreciative of the gifts. Another, a teen age girl with twin 6 month old babies who lost her husband in the quake, we were able to purchase diapers and gave her a great assortment of baby clothes, as well as hygiene kits for her own use. We also met a young man with wife and small child. This man dug in the rubble for 3 days to dig is wife out who had her leg crushed and lost everything. This man speaks in 3 different languages and taught biology in one of the schools that the quake destroyed. He now is looking for a job and we were able to give his name and hope that he will be able to be hired. We also met 3-4 young men that had been attending college and wanted to continue however, the college no longer exists or their workplace no longer is there to support them. We were able to help one who had translated for us and plan to send him some tools for his education. In Port au Prince we visited an orphanage for Aids Children, who have lost both mother and father. The orphanage is located in a basement apartment with no electricity, no sunlight, no running water, no yard to play in and damp from the rain running in. It was so dark inside we were barely able to seen each other. They were about to be evicted for unpaid rent, however if their rent was paid up and they were able to pay a month’s rent upfront they would be able to move to the upper remodeled apartment where there would be more room, sunlight, dry conditions and wired for electricity (electricity out do to earthquake). We were able to provide the moneys’ so the children were now in the upper apartment by the time we left Haiti. We also left for them two suitcases of clothing, coloring books, crayons, a ball and candy.

We then moved on to Saint Marc, with a team of 17 from Pennsylvania, to the YWAM Haiti base (Youth With A Mission) to build two duplexes within one of the YWAM Tent Cities. The YWAM Tent Cities are not so crowded, much cleaner, have water available nearby, supervised by YWAM and offered transportation to the clinic and to the churches. YWAM is also building a market and a school in the area. In Saint Marc YWAM has built a clinic that received the overflow of patients after the earthquake. The Mayor of Saint Marc, a drunkard, hinders each project that the YWAM attempts. YWAM was sponsoring a Crusade during the time we were there in their stadium, bringing in thousands of people worshipping each evening. The mayor had all of the banners advertising the crusade, that YWAM had registered for and paid for, taken down. However, the crusade was a success. We met a number of young people in Saint Marc wanting to get their education and children needing to go to school. Team members want support a number of these children. For $ a year we are able to support one child. This covers the uniform, books and shoes. It was so rewarding when we turned over the keys to the duplexes, after days of hard work in the hot sun, to the four families. These four families now are out of the tents and are able to sleep off the ground. This allows four more families to move from the crowded Port au Prince Tent Cities to the YWAM Cities As we met with Pastors in Port au Prince as well as YWAM in Saint Marc, it was pointed out how the people must be educated in a new way of thinking and behaving so when the country has elections for government officials or President they are able to give an educated vote. 46 persons are running now for president, who see only the dollars that they may pocket and not how they are able to help the people of Haiti out of poverty. There is a group in Port au Prince attempting to start a “Premoval Group”. This group is dedicated to work with the citizens to become: Convinced Christians who are equipped for every good work. Honest citizens who are able to work toward the development of the country. Men & Women spurred on by righteous, honorable, pleasant and praiseworthy thoughts and who can foster harmony and social peace. Respectable people who believe in spiritual, moral, and civic values and who want to build a society that is more just and prosperous. They plan to promote this through conferences, seminars, literature, drama and the media throughout Haiti. They do need support through prayers, with advice, financially and with material resources. As a team we felt that this is a need in Haiti and we hope to support it. Thank you to all who supported the team through gifts, prayer and financially. Your gifts did reach the people. It was a very rewarding Mission as we touched the lives of each individual, and we hope to continue our support to Haiti.

How can you help? There are 135 kids in the village of Timonet. Our goal is to enroll all 135! School for 1 year = $300 per child Pastor Renes who welcomed us in his guest house, he needs financial support for the PROMOVAL program. Any amount.
