As usual, I am a little, okay a lot, behind on some things.  I had two months in Haiti, at Grace Center, and praise the Lord for what He has provided as we see things progress.  John and Lindy Mahon were home in the US for two months and were able to visit family and supporters, and take care of some physical needs.  John had to have his gall bladder removed, and is recovering from that in Haiti, and apparently doing well.  Continue to pray for the Mahons as they continue for a couple months.  Pray as they seek God’s direction for the future.  I will be posting the August Praise and Prayer in the next day or so.  In the meantime, remember our annual Celebration Banquet, held at Shady Maple Smorgasbord, near Lancaster, PA, on September 24, at noon.  More information is available on the website: www.gracemissionpage.org.

Okay, so I, George, am a little behind on things.  A lot has been going on.  I had a trip to Haiti, and specifically to the island of Lagonave, in June and into July, to explore the possibility of a church partnership with Barefoot Community Church, of North Myrtle Beach, SC.

In August there was a trip to Maryland for a board meeting, then a trip to Haiti for our annual Leadership Conference, and some time spent at Grace Center, then out to Gode and Doriol to prepare for roofing teams in January.  This took us into September and a trip to Pennsylvania for meetings and to prepare for our annual Celebration Banquet at Shady Maple Smorgasbord, near Lancaster, on September 25.  The banquet was a wonderful time of celebration, food and fellowship.  Another banquet in western Pennsylvania took place the following weekend in October and indications that banquet was a great success as well.

October 23-30, I returned to  Lagonave with a team from Barefoot Church.  They were a wonderful team, endured a fairly rough trip to the three churches on Lagonave, painted, had fellowship with the believers at the churches, and saw 22 people come to salvation in Christ in the days we were there.

November found me back in Haiti at a pastors’ conference in Carrefour with four men with C3 Global.  The two day conference was a tremendous encouragement to the pastors of Carrefour.  We had between 150-200 pastors gathered at Pastor Beril’s church for the conference.

Please pray for the people of Haiti.  They endured the earthquake in January, then a major storm in November, and now are suffering with an epidemic of cholera.  Elections are to be held at the end of November.  The ministries of Grace Mission have weathered the disasters rather well, but please keep praying for our pastors and mission leaders as they deal with all these things, and try to meet needs with limited resources.

I am pleased to give an account of the different distributions of donated items
that have taken place at Grace Missions over the past couple of weeks.

Clothing:
Approximately 150 boxes have been prepared and distributed to the 27 church
under Grace Mission and well as other locations that have expressed need. Each
box has several items for men, women, and children (age range of newborn to
adolescent), also included are linens for beddings, towels, hats, belts, shoes
as well as toys for the children.

Food and House products:
Also distributed in accordance to the need of the people have been boxes of food
and toiletry items. These food included cereals, milk, peanut butter, flour,
beans, rice, cookies, and canned products. Also included n these boxes were
toiletry items such as soap, shampoo and conditioner, toothpaste, hand
sanitizer, bathroom tissue and paper towels.

Tarps:
Have also been given out to help make tents and protective coverings for
schools, churches and other living quarters.

Medical Supplies and Medicine:
Boxes of medical supplies have been distributed to many clinics in the
surrounding areas. Especially our clinic in Bertin as well as medicine given to
the doctors at Samaritan Purse.

The people of Haiti, have received these supplies with much gratefulness of
heart. It has been a joy to see so many needs being meet. May the Lord’s work
continue and may all who have given be richly blessed.

In His Service,
Pastor Beril

We had a great trip to the island of Lagonave with Barefoot Community Church.  The church is anticipating a partnership with the three Grace Mission churches on the island, so this was an exploratory trip.  We flew over to the island from Port au Prince, on MAF (Missionary Aviation Fellowship).  See video link- http://vimeo.com/13214553.  Barefoot is planning to take a team to Lagonave in October to do some evangelism and work out details of what would be involved in a partnership.  This trip will be the final determination for the church’s involvement in a partnership.

The partnership idea, as we are looking at it now, is an old idea with some new features.  The church partnership program is intended to provide for some of the needs of the Haitian churches, but with a greater emphasis on outreach to be more effective in reaching people with the Gospel.  Physical needs of the churches is certainly a part of it, but we recognize that the spiritual needs are even greater.  Barefoot Church has a serious burden for the unsaved and wants their partnership to be an evangelism tool, more than anything else.  This is the model I hope we can duplicate in all our Haitian fields.  Please pray with us as we work to that end.
