Hard to believe that a month has passed since our last training Project. We had an amazing time with 35 of our Haitian brothers at the Back To The Cross conference in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. We had the privilege of hearing John Piper speak on 5 occasions. Many of the men have since reported back to us that they learned more at this conference than any they have ever attended. God was so faithful in providing all that was needed and above and beyond what we had expected. I want to thank all the helpers that traveled from far and wide to help make this a success. Larry, my friend from AIM, traveled from Calgary on the "red eye" and then another full day to arrive, Steve and Walt came from Virginia and helped out with driving the vans across the island. What a blessing it was to have these men helping in so many ways. A special thank you goes out to John McArthur's ministry for donating 40 of his French Study Bibles for the men. It was amazing to watch them dig into the word. These men live in extreme poverty and really have so little in their language as resources. The French Bible was as good as Creole to them. Also a big thank you to John Pipers ministry for donating the Creole book and the many French books. Each man was able to go home with a mini library. Thank you, Thank you.
Praise God for all that He is doing. This conference opened many doors for The Project. Many bridges were built and new relationships and friendships were formed. The men are all eagerly anticipating the next project of "The Project".
I look forward to be able to announce very shortly the next training project that we will be sponsoring. We continue to see the great need for providing resources and training for the Haitian Pastors. Please join with us in praying for Gods leading in all of the planning.
Over the next few days I will be giving short reviews on special things that happened on our last trip.
