June 30, 2011

Great week with the New Work Fellowship Church team. Several new people on the team and lots of " return " people. Always a joy to see familiar faces. Some of the team went on well pump repair, some worked in the clinic treating patients, others work on getting the electrical put in the new addition of the clinic. After clinic the ladies cleaned off all the shelves and medicines bottles in the pharmacy part of the clinic.....lots of cement dust with all the construction going on. Painting the addition to the clinic and the inside of one of the houses we built in TiTanyen rounded out their week. Saturday night was so special as they showed the Jesus in one of the tent areas and 43 people accepted Christ. WOW! God is good.
Years ago when we first came to TiTanyen I taught conversational English at the seminary. I had a young man named Samuel in my class. During Samuel's last year of seminary he almost died with tuberculous . He had a very tough type to treat and spent two months in the hospital and 4 months recuperating at home. God raised him up to pastor two churches in the Cap Haitian area...about 6 hours northeast of TiTanyen. God has blessed his ministry as he has stayed faithful to him. Our hearts were saddened when Samuel's wife called Thursday and said Samuel had passed away. He leaves a wife and two children and congregations that will miss him. Pray!
