Haiti…what the media is not reporting
Post Disaster Sunday in Haiti, as reported by CrossWorld.org
Five days ago – tens of thousands died; some are still buried alive; many others have not been found; thousands of homes are destroyed. The Haiti earthquake is a mega disaster!
But what does Sunday morning five days later look like – at the seminary – and all over Haiti?
People are worshiping God – “they are…singing, praying and rejoicing in God’s provision of protection,” says Phyllis Schmid. Worship services were held all over Haiti and at the seminary, Professor Jacques Louis preached and several people trusted Christ as their Savior. One young man requested to burn his charms and fetishes asking Bruce McMartin to run home to get some diesel fuel and matches. God is at work in Haiti.
Reuters news agency reported Sunday “many Haitians turning to God”. CW MK now a missionary in Haiti, Judy Dilus, heard a Haitian senator on the radio calling the nation to prayer. One thing is certain she says “people are turning to God in great numbers”. The National Post in Canada reports, “they praise God for their misery; they thank Him for sparing their lives and cheer each other up with rousing choruses of popular Haitian hymns.”
Perhaps not a normal Sunday … but an incredible Sunday! As people sang and worshiped God, helicopters passed over the campus, looking for the best drop sites – yes help is on the way!
You can give to the Haiti Disaster Relief Fund, through the CrossWorld website or by sending your check to the office in Kansas City, MO or Mississauga, ON.
