We flew into Miami  last Wednesday. Got to speak to 70 or so youth at Turning Point at Calvary in St Augustine FL Sunday morning, sharing what missionaries actually do on the mission field, its not all preaching and Bible studying like many people think, especially kids. Mechanics, plumbers, electricians, medical, computer fixers, well drillers,  photographers, engineers, cooks, etc....all gifts are needed.  Many people don't realize they can be a blessing to share God's love. With out these people the preachers and ministers can't live and disciple and share God's love. Here at Global Outreach Haiti Mission all these talents are needed, but most of the time the few of us have to do the best we can because we don't have these talents. Teams come and will have their gifts God has given each one and help us in these areas and we wish we could keep there passports so they would have to stay. We enjoy sharing with youth and children what missionaries are doing and that they too can be one here in the USA and over seas also, where ever God calls them.

These are a few pictures of whats going on in Haiti now, many UN bases all around Haiti





One of the buildings on Delmas, the main street in Port au Prince, still not removed

         A new building being built back in the city. Around 3 million living in or close to Port au Prince

                         Hope for Tomorrow!
 12 years ago the Espwa Pou Demen (Hope for Tomorrow) flannelgraph ministry was started by a missionary couple at Global.  Started by Eileen, asking her Haitian housekeeper if she wanted to help with the flannelgraph ministry.  Today that flannelgraph ministry is being run by the same Haitian lady and includes many more leaders who are taking this ministry all over Haiti. She put together a 2 day conference for 162 leaders from all over Haiti (February 24-25). What a success, a house keeper leading this ministry without the help of Americans. Sure they still send down flannel kits and help fund training conferences every 2 years. PTL!!! This is what its about Discipling Haitians.

One of the teachers leading 100 kids that don't go to church at a Saturday program (these kids get a meal at this program)

                                     This is a craft the leaders learned at the conference

                                              Look at these happy faces making flowers

                                                         These Haitians love the kids

This was the first time some of these leaders had traced their hands and used scissors before

 
                                            Our outdoor chapel holds close to 400 people
