Chris in Haiti




Christopher went to Haiti earlier this year with Stephanie (his now wife) and a local church group. He was invited to return by the missionary.  He has accepted their invitation and is now on his way to meet up with them 2 hours from Santo Domingo.  He was delayed getting there, as usual, the one who doesn't want our efforts to be successful, tried to get him all upset but he didn't allow that to happen.  Chris took it all in stride and now is on his way to meet the missionaries.  He had to catch a bus from the airport to meet them.  He will be working in Dominican Republic as well as in Haiti.

We had plans to get with Chris and go over some evangelism training but his trip got moved up and wasn't able to accomplish that.  He surprised us with a sudden trip.  However, I did send with him a Children's Ministry Resource Bible for him to use while there.  It has all the teaching materials in it.  A great resource. I asked him to leave it with the missionaries and I will give him another one when he gets home.  Hope he was able to get it into his luggage.

He just updated his status on face book-   "Well I finally made it. It took a strange cab ride and a sketchy bus trip and then asking somebody to borrow their phone to call Sam and Delores to meet me at the bus stop but I'm here lol. I can't thank and praise the Lord enough for keeping me safe and performing the first miracle I've seen coming here... the trip itself ;)"


I think he is pretty relieved to get there.

  1. He did make it there with the Bible. You never know what customs will conviscate in their inspections. We will be communicating with him on facebook.
