Welcome Jimmy, our first child at CCF

We covet your continued prayers

In December 2008, the Lord put it in my heart to warn the church about trials and tribulations in 2009 as the ministry grows. Oh man, we did not wait for January to start feeling it specially the leadership of the church.
My family is not exempt from it either but we did not get the worst of it either.
We continue to covet your prayers for our leaders and ourselves as we step out in 2009 and boldly proclaim Salvation by Grace in Jesus-Christ our Lord and Savior.
What is great about trials and tribulations is that we know that the Lord already wrote the conclusion of the story: at the end WE WIN.
God bless you all and we will try to update you as often as we can. Our internet connection is becoming so slow that it is not even letting me read my email messages sometimes. Uploading pictures to the blog is even harder.
I love you all, may the Lord help us all share his love to others.

Children Ministry Christmas Celebration at CCPAP

We started with about 50 children but at the end we had about 140 children from the neighborhood joining us to celebrate Christmas at Calvary Chapel Port-au-Prince. Some of the gifts were donated by another local ministry. The gospel was presented to them, of course.

Christmas Celebration with the Street Kids

Our church, in collaboration with another ministry (Monique Cesar Guillaume Ministere), celebrated Christmas with the street kids we work with. It was a time to motivate them to stay the course, to focus on Jesus-Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit. We were joined by 2 well known Christian singers, one Haitian (Maggie Blanchard from Canada) and one french (Marcel Boungou, originally from Congo, Africa). We had a great time: food, gifts, singing make a great combination.
Next month we start teaching a couple of these young men how to drive. Keep them in your prayers if you can, it is easy for them to get distracted from what the Lord is doing in their lives. We lost some of them already.
