“REACHING OUT ”

I praise the Lord for each of you. It's believers like you that makes it possible for us to do the Lord's work. As I write this letter, I'm planning to leave this Friday for Haiti. Just to inform those that may not know, I've made over 70 trips to Haiti over the past 25 years. We have helped build 7 churches there and we have led thousands to the Lord. Debbie and I adopted a little boy that was living on the streets and his nickname as Bazoo. He was blind in one eye and had very poor vision out of his other eye. We also adopted another young man, whose name is James Benoit. This Ministry, with the help of all of our supporters, has helped keep James's family alive over the past 20 years. We helped him build a very small four room cinderblock home, which was destroyed in the earthquake recently. James has been my interpreter for many years and has always been my right hand in Haiti. Well, now he needs our help more than ever. At this time, he and his family are having to sleep on the ground outside of his home. James and Yevonne have three children. I’m taking a small three room tent with me, which will give them some protection from the elements. James has had to get what food he could on credit since the earthquake. When I get to Haiti I will need to help him pay all his food bills and I’ll need to help him get enough food to support them for a few weeks. We see all the food shipped into the country and stacked at the airport, but let me tell you from a very honest source, the people are not getting the food.

James has gone to the airport several times and each time he says the people that are able to get through the red tape and the crowds and are fortunate enough to get food and water are robbed and beaten by the gangs on their way home. James has told me twice, that he had rather buy his food on credit than to take a chance on getting help at the airport. I’ve personally spent over a year of my life in this country and I know firsthand how the corrupt government operates there. The wealthy will get richer from the tragedy and the poor will continue to suffer. We will need to help James rebuild his home and I need for each of you to help anyway you can. It will cost thousands of dollars even for this small block home. Some that are reading this letter could build the house and never miss the money. Others could buy ten blocks at two dollars each, some could buy a hundred, some five hundred. I only ask you to do what ever you can. God’s Word says, “He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.” Proverbs 19:17

God’s Word also says, “He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.” Proverbs 28:27
James and Bazoo are poorer than most. Let’s have pity on them and give unto them that which they need. God will bless us and we shall prevent and avoid a curse. †



Haiti Update
I just returned from Haiti last night (Sunday) and it was a trip never to be forgotten. I took a three room tent to Brother James and his family. I also carried him food and an air mattress with a battery powered pump. We raised enough money to pay off the creditors that helped James with food. We also were able to give him enough money to begin the clean up process, buy steal beams for bracing the roof and keep him supplied with food for a month or so. Below we have a list of materials needed to rebuild the walls of his house. We will need 2100 cinder blocks, 30 bags of cement, 1- truck load of sand and of course we have the labor.
2100 blocks @ 2.00 = 4200.00
30 bags cement @ 12.00 = 360.00
1- load of sand @ 200.00 = 200.00
Labor to clean up = 800.00
Labor to re-build = 1,050.00
Estimated total $6,610.00
I’m sure there will be other expenses we haven’t covered, but I know we need this amount to get started. I’m asking everyone to help a little. We’re going to try to get this work done within the next 60 days. Prices are going to climb higher and higher because of the demand. We need to move as quickly as possible. Because of your help, James and his family are now in the dry. Thank you for helping. †
