Looks like this coming week could be the week when Kenya and the multinational police/troops may come in to dismantle the gangs and bring order to Haiti. A lot of Air Force jet cargo planes have been landing at the Port-au-Prince airport to bring in supplies, etc. We have been[…]
Word from the Mission Field
“God Knows More…” Sometimes, when we think of our modern technology we are amazed at what our doctors know about the human body. Science has made remarkable advancements in studying the human body. We think they know a lot, but God knows more… If you want to know “how much[…]
Joseph…
