If ever we needed a miracle as missionaries… we need it now. There in nothing on the news at all about the violence which has permeated Haiti… nothing on CNN, nothing on Fox News… It’s as if “Haiti didn’t exist.” Only the few missionaries who are left, and the “good Haitian people,” know what is happening.
We are almost completely out of fuel (gas and oil) in the country, and it is now $10 U.S. on the “black market.” Gangs control nearly every area of Haiti… There are only a few large towns that have not been taken over.
The Police are virtually non-existent because they do not have the same ammunition the gangs have. The Prime Minister is in charge of the country and he is “just the same as the gangs.” Ever since President Jovenel was killed last year, the county is upside down. We have heard that OAS, the Organization of American States, would come to help us “if” the United States would join them. However, this is not happening. So we, the Haitian people, and a small number of missionaries, are at the mercy of God…
But the “good news” is this… “The things which are impossible with men, are possible with God.” Luke 18:27
So, today from Haiti we want to encourage you, who need a miracle in your life, don’t be discouraged. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever! He loves you, and will come to your rescue if you only believe… He is the God that makes the “impossible… possible!” So, no matter what you are facing, we want you to know that God is still on the throne, and ready to make the impossible… possible! We are believing that too for the country of Haiti!
