God Has Been Good To Us
// Rachel DeTellis
Haiti has been in the news frequently this past school year because of problems within the country.
Despite all these challenges, our Haitian pastors chose Psalm 13:6 as the verse of this school year. “We will sing because the Lord has been good to us.ˮ The verse was introduced at the directors meeting we had before the opening of the school year. At this meeting, reports were given of students saved during school chapels and summer events.
A new church is under construction on our campus in Flon, Haiti. This is built 100% by Haitians—providing jobs to support their families.
This summer, 244 Haitians from New Missions churches went on various mission trips within Haiti. They returned with an extra person because one pregnant mother safely delivered her baby early while out on mission! More than 100 people were saved, and 17 rededicated their lives to the Lord!
Also, three new wells were recently drilled on three more school campuses. New school buildings are being built in Masson, and their church is being extended. A church is being constructed in Flon, and boundary walls are beginning to go up at our Bire campus. God is always working and we will sing because He has been good to us! ~Rachel DeTellis
