GAiN Haiti Mission Team–MONDAY

Hello everyone. The GAiN mission team in Haiti had a great Monday. We started the day by going to Onaville to conduct a vision clinic. We were joined by a small group from Saddleback Church. Onaville is home to 220,000 displaced people from Port-au-Prince. The Jesus Film team helped organize the clinic and they are great. 114 people came through the clinic today and 56 of them prayed to receive Jesus into their lives for the first time. And no, that is not a misprint. We are thrilled to see God work in such a wonderful way. And so very many of them received glasses to improve their sight. They will all be followed up by the Jesus Film team.

While the clinic was going on, 3 of our men helped restore a large tent that had collapsed. If you are following the blog, you will remember that two weeks ago the West Point cadets put up the new church tent in Onaville. We have had bad storms and it partially collapsed. Our team worked hard at restoring it.

Team members returned to the NVM compound at 2 pm. And after a short break they started on construction projects. We are continuing construction of the new outdoor kitchen for the school and painting the ceiling tiles for the new hospital.

It was a full and wonderful day. We will keep you posted each day as we continue our ministry. Please continue to pray that God projects us and blesses what we do.
