Rebuilding Security Walls AFCA Village Progressing

In Haiti security means a wall. With many thanks to all who have prayed and given, the final stretch of wall along the north side of the Village in Port au Prince is being restored. When the 2010 earthquake hit, sections of the wall collapsed or tilted. The thousands of refugees who had fled their fallen homes to tents in the Village are now being resettled elsewhere. Ministries at AFCA can now recommence. To protect the Village, the walls will be topped with barbed wire. Pastor Renes Deciere shows what the walls are like and looks forward to getting the work completed in the coming months.

Rural Christian School Marbial, Haiti Rebuilt by Many Friends after Earthquake

Come take a video tour with us to the beautiful campus of the Ecole Bethesda de Marbial high in the rugged hills 10 miles northeast of Jacmel. This is the birthplace of our Associate Director for Haiti, Rev. Martinez Jovin. On a recent visit to inspect the work were Emma Jovin, Dr. Claude and Huguette Noel (Director for Haiti) and Joe Bradley (President of Partners with Haiti).

The only access to this remote site is by a gravel road that criss-crosses a river bed that is impassable after any heavy rainfall. The 2-hour drive from the paved highway was much rewarded when the team was greeted by the happy faces of children playing in the yards, while many others were obeserved in their studies. A special treat was enjoyed when visiting the Boy's Home to have heard two uplifting spiritual songs from the students.

It is hard to imagine the amount of work that has gone into the reconstruction after the 2010 earthquake destroyed almost all the buildings. This would have not been possible without the support of the many friends who donated funds, and who traveled to Haiti on work teams to render direct assistance.

The Mission of Partners with Haiti

The mission of Partners with Haiti is to fulfill our Lord’s Great Commission as stated in Matthew 28:19-20 and in the spirit of Matthew 25:25-40, to provide the following: A channel of support for Haitian Christian workers and projects; setting up sister church relationships between churches in Haiti and U.S. /Canadian churches; assistance in the growth and development of the churches; provision of U.S. and Haitian speakers to present the work; and encouragement and support for the development of Haitian National leadership.
