Promise for Haiti

Reverend Janice Brown-Corbett led at team to Pignon.
This is an account of their trip that was submitted in her words.

On October 7-14, a mission team left for Haiti, to do ministry
in the northern mountains fo Pignon, Haiti. The fifteen member
team of the "Hearts 4 Haiti Missions Ministry", were from
Washington, DC, Virginia and North Carolina.



While in Pignon, the team sponsored a two day conference
for women and children. For the two days there were 350
women and 700 children in attendance. Activities for the week
included preaching, teaching Bible Study, praise dancing, English
and French singing, and recreation for the children. Each day at
the convening of the conference, all attendees were fed a hot, h
ealthy meal. The team also ministered at Hoptial de Bienfaisance,
gave out Creole Bibles, clothes, and shoes, and served each patient
a hot meal. Among the volunteers was a medical doctor and two
registered nurses who worked daily in the hospital. We provided
100 toothbrushes and toothpaste to the Dentist in Pignon. We also
had the opportunity to minister to a prison inmate and served him a
hot meal and a Bible.



Each morning at 6:00 a.m., the team walked through the streets
of Pignon, evangelizing to the people, gave out Bibles and tracks
printed in Creole. Four nights of revival were held in different
churches, where members of the team were the guest preachers.
School supplies were given out to schools and 250 flip flops to an
orphanage. It was truly a mission trip that ministered to the needs
of the people, physically, emotionally and spiritually. "Inasmuch as
you did it to one of the least of these My brethren,you did it to Me."
Matthew 25:40
