HAITI

.Statue of Liberation: 'Le Negre Marron'with the President's residence in the baciiground.

More than 5 million people of which 83% live in rural areas populate the beau
tiful island of Haiti. The French speaking people with their patois of Creole are

even tempered, friendly, willing hearted and desperately poor. Haiti's climate and
geography are very similar to Jamaica. We will not be strange to the land.

Yet, Haiti is a much larger island than jamaica with a vast challenge to missionaries,
a challenge which has reached our hearts, a challenge that says from every hill and
vale, "we want you and we need you." The great desperate need for the physical
things of life are strongly accompanied by a deep desire for the Gospel. The needs
of children are overwhelming in medical areas caused mostly by mal-nutrition and
lack of care. Yet how can a mother 'care' when there isn't water to wash clothes?
Or money for medical assistance?

Beyond the comprehension of foreigners is the African cull of voodoo with its
mysterious rituals, symbols, music and dances which shares its entity with gambl
ing filling thefree time hours of the poor. The official state religion is Catholicism.
This is the island...the people, to whom we have pledged
our hearts and our love alongside of our beloved jamaica.

The Government of Haiti has given us a personal invitation to "come over into

Haiti and help us." The President has agreed to give us a large piece of land and
other amenities for farming and for the establishment of an orphanage and
medical clinic.

THE TIME IS NOW

We have rented a house in Port au Prince and we plan to live there until we are
able to build on the property In the country. We expect to take our Ford Pick-up
truck with us and to leave our Landrover for the Home. Some of our boys will be
with us. And, we have been studying French and are rapidly increasing our vocab
ulary. It is easier to learn when there are several learning together.

THE JAMAICA HOME FRONT'

THE JAMAICA CHRISTIAN BOYS' HOME LTD.

For the past twenty-four years the Jamaica Christian Boys' Home has been reach
ing into the hearts and lives of needy young boys, bringing them up to know the
Lord as their Saviour and teaching them the Christian way of life. This Home hopes
to retain its identity as a Christian haven of hope to other boys of Jamaica. It is
operated by a Board of Directorswho are not only willing but capable of taking
this serious responsibility. Our Jamaican firms and friends have pledged support
for the Home and we are leaving rental property of our own personal ownership
for the Home's use. Other rental income on the Home property along with gifts

from the many business firms in Jamaica who have been supporting the Home for
many years, should amply support the Home. We plan to keep a close watch on
this support and to encourage it. The boys spiritual lives and education will be
carefully guarded as well as their health and happiness.

THE CHURCH

Meadowbrook church has been under our ministry for eleven years. Dur

ing this time two buildings have been constructed and five hundred peo
ple won to Christ. Special activities are far too many to be mentioned
but it all can be summed up and capped by the deepest expression of the
-heart, "Praise the Lord!"

Two men have been ordained to the ministry from the congregation, several young
people have gone out to Bible College and now the Lord has blessed us with a
young Jamaican minister and his wife to be supported by the congregation. Jim

resigned as of this month and is carefully watching over Bro Alvin Anderson, help
ing him to know the congregation and the responsibilities of his ministry. The
people already love their new young minister and his wife.

The work of the organist and choir director has now fallen to a capable Jamaican,
Sister Williams, as Carol resigned her work. Faith Brandon, our 'adopted daugh
ter', member of Meadowbrook and graduate of Johnson Bible College, is Youth
Director and Treasurer of the church. We are proud of her and her dedicated life.
So let us praise the Lord together in this fruitful ministry and also continue to
keep the church in our prayers.

Jim ministered to the Memorial Chapel church for eleven years and it has been a
flourishing ministry under Jamaican leadership for many years now. Isn't it
strangely wonderful that the Meadowbrook ministry has also been eleven years
in length and a great blessing to the Lord?

Each one help one

The humanitarian principle of rendering assistance to the less for
tunate, we believe, is a highly commendable one and we heartily applaud
the many organizations in Jamaica which carry out such projects. We.
ourselves, encourage members of our group of companiesto involve them
selves in assisting these organizations in any way they can and our
companies contribute financially from time to time to many worthwhile

projects and fund-raising schemes which are carried out by these

organizations.

We believe that a philosophy of life which admits of the inter

dependence of people and the need to meaningfully contribute to each

other, can only benefit the society as a whole.

THANK YOU FOR YESTERDAY

We wonder what it takes - to convincingly convey "thank you" for the endless
love and faithfulness you have shown throughout these 27 years. Some of you
have been our ardent supporters since 1948. We thank God for all who have made
the work possible. The seed has been sown...God will give the increase. Let us
trust Him.

A well earned "thank you" goes to Bro Vic Raid for the excellent work he has

the Hergets and co-workers; Mrs. Ada Walker and Miss Shirley Peace.

Mrs. Ada Walker went on leave from Jamaica in

September, 1977 and plans to join the CHRISTIANVILLE family in Haiti. All who know her are

THE BOYS

In recent months four of our boys have returned to their parents who are now able

to take care of them. Although sad at parting with thesechildren we are glad when
families can be reunited and when poverty can be overcome.

Six of the youngest boys will remain in the Home under the tendercareof Nurse
Peterson who begins her fourth year with us. Eight boys will live in Haiti with us.
We have been their parents since babyhood and these boys would be the most aff

improve.

ANSWERED PRAYER BRINGS JOY

Remember us in Prayer. This is our greatest need. We know our early days in the
work will not be easy but the Lord is able to keep us and give us joy. He is the
same Heavenly Father who opened the gates of this Jamaican Home in 1955 with

so many answeres to prayer that we were staggered with His goodness. We do not
go alone to Haiti. He will go with us.

THANK YOU

The Jamaica Christian Boys' Home has gathered to itself a great following of the
finest kind of friends. They range from very personal friends who have loved us
and stood by us in sickness and in health and in every need, to friends in Business
firms who have poured all manner of food and equipment into this project, to
friends in Government and in the Jamaica Defence Force. We could never begin to

say goodbye to each and every one. In fact, it is not goodbye, but just 'so long
now' for a little while, and thanks from the bottom of our hearts for all you have
done. Stand by now - and help hold the Life-Line that the Home may go on to
greater heights.

Dear Family in Christ,

How very precious the Lord has been to us this month.

It is hard to believe that

we are really In Haiti and settled In our home with our eight Jamaican boys. They
are truly happy and so are we! It is like starting life all over again and we

are refreshed and excited as day by day the Lord opens doors for us. You would
be amazed at the rapid pace we are getting things done while others tell of
months and even years of waiting for the same things. No one but the Lord Him
self could open such doors. Shirley wrote this verse and left It on our desk:

"Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh;

is anything too difficult for me?

Nothing is too difficult for Him,

Jeremiah 32:27

On every hand we find people who want to help

us. The Park Hotel has been very gracious to allow us to have our mall delivered
there while we await our postal box. Friends in Jamaica have written letters of
Introduction, spolen of us personally to associates and sent us to Doctors and Den

tists,

We are very thankful for these many Jamaican friends who want to help us.

Wayne accompanied us as we left for Haiti. There was no time to go to bed that
last night - It was a "massive** departure with dozens of little things to complete.
Our Board of Directors worked closely to us right up to the time of our leaving
and said their goodbyes In a beautiful circle of prayers* There were lovely gifts
from friends and Meadowbrook church as well as continual phone calls. I won't tell
of the sadness but you can well know there was a share of that, especially from the
Home workers. Our secretary Gloria Ebanks had said that she simply could not come
to work the day we left but In the end she stood by bravely and was a tremendous
help. We have had a blessed service together for seven years,
Shirley welcomed us to Haiti. A thankful faithful girl who had done a great job
In receiving everyone as they left Jamaica three by three, as well as all the lug
gage and furniture. The house was settled and Cookie had a good dinner ready. It
was joy unspeakable to be settled once again. The boys enjoy school and their new
life and "Grandma" is with us again after a brief illness In the States.
We are beginning our new work. Jim holds services In our home for English speaking
people and It shows promise with the good start of l^ In our family. Our beautiful
land has nov; been given to us by the government and we have drawn up plans for our
house. There is enough land for an orphanage, school, medical center and a farm

HOPES

Several of you have asked about our plans for our mission to Haiti. We

have spent much time in seeking guidance from the Lord and from new friends

who know their country well. From this we have gleaned enough to assure us
that our tirst plans were reasonable.

They are:

1. To establish our own home with our missionary family including our
eight Jamaican boys. This means to buiid a house on the property
so generously given to us by our Haitian President, Son Exellence

Jean Claude Duvalier.

2.

To establish a medical clinic for the needy. Our co~worker,

Shirley Peace, C.R.K.A., hopes to begin this work just as soon as
we can get a "roof" over her head. Our complete goal however, Is
to build a comfortable convenient medical center.

3.

To establish an orphanage beginning with babies and children up to

the age of three.

This would include building a separate unit we

could be proud to house our little ones in.

k.

To establish a school for the underpriviledged including both the

children in the Home and the cHildren in fle&Fby-v^llages?-- A freelunch is to be provided for the needy ones. Good Haitian Christian
teachers are readily available.

5.

To farm and raise foods for the project.

WE HAVE BEGUN!

On the 25th day of March we began trucking fence posts to mark our
various corners of the property. V^e planted some 100 banana trees as well.
Our whole family is involved - all but "Cookie" and Grandma had their hands

In the earth but they did their part in providing a good lunch.
Language study continues strong in our home and It Is now a joy to be
able to read a few signs and carry on a bit of conversation.

One of our

needs Is to employ a French teacher and this we pray to be able to do soon.

We have received your gift from our Forwarding Agents, the Wheelers,
and are most grateful to you. In fact, we are encouraged by the amount
of love and encouragement we have had through letters and gifts from our
friends. Each letter has been a blessing. We needed this so much these
first few months and are deeply grateful. How true it Is that we have come
to Haiti "together" and that you are a real part of our mission here. A
most necessary and blessed part.

So thank you for coming with us.

And please pray that we will be able

to make a real contribution to the Kingdom of God and God's children here.

*/e all join in sending our love to you.

Yours faithfully serving.

APRIL 1978

Dear Friends,

it was the first outreach to the peasants at ChrlstianvIUe, the first

promise of friendship, of love, of compassion. And even though our

language still stands as a barrier there was something that could
reach out beyone the barrier. It was the warmth of Christian love. We

shared our Dedication Day with them - the pledge of our hearts and love
and the promise of the Gospel message.

Two sticks of sugar-cane made the crude cross that stood on the Chapel
site. We gathered 'round It while we prayed God's blessing for the

future church. But there were other dedications also...the Clinic site

where we bowed our heads while children gathered with us " naked, needy

precious little souls. And there was the Childrens' Home site where we
held babies In our arms to ask God*s blessing on them and on this future

ha^en of love. Finally there was the school site where we hope to teach
children to read and to understand the Word of God.

Don and Julia Wheeler came from Orlando, Fla. They have been our for
warding agents for fifteen years now and we were thrilled to have them

share the Dedication with us. Less and Bess Lumsden of Elizabethton,
A J^n.
who winter In Port Charlotte, Fla. came to visit in April too.
Both returned eager to be helpful toward ChrlstianvlIle's future.

Thank you for your gift that shows you have extended your hand to Haiti
along with ours. Never before have we had such a tremendous challenge

^^_an_tbo Lord keeps right on blessing. Our tool and cement house Is com

pleted and the fence work has begun. Regular work days are common now
and we enjoy them. But we need shelter from the broiling sun. Hope
fully we will soon get something over our heads. Once again we send our
loving thanks. Please keep us ever In your prayers. All things are

possible.

Your faithful servants,

MEMORIALS TO KINGDOM BUILDING

In Memory of Herb Swearingen

beloved Minister of the Gospel to Christian Churches, retired and residing at

Crawfordsville who wentto his reward. Brother Herb had a very deep love forour
boys and their physical needs. He had offered his volunteer services to raising
support for them when he fell ill. His memorial Fund will be a great joy to them.
Irj Memory of Don MacNees

beloved member of the Perry Christian Church, Canton. Ohio, who passed to
his reward. Brother Don was not only an active worker at Perry Church but was a
blessing to our work and our children through the years. His Memorial Fund
should live to bless the children of Christianville.

In Memory of Esther Criland

beloved member and Sunday School teacher of Cornland Christian Church,

Cornland, Illinois. The Memorial Fund for Sister Esther will continue to bless

the children she so loved and helped through the years.

We thank God upon every remembrance of these His children.

(Announcement of the Memorials will be made)

'

The challenge that faced us on February 1st is quickly changing to the reality of
accomplishment. True to his promise, the President of Haiti, Son Excellence M.

Jean Claude Duvalier, has given us a beautiful piece of land, some 24 a_cres, a
duty-free franchise and many other favors. A most recent blessing was a letter
sent to the militia of the Christianville area asking them to protect our land

and our family and to assist us in any way possible. Business people have given
excellent discounts as well as free will gifts. Our legal work involving the
establishment of the Christianville Foundation is being done without charge. A
donation of twenty cows has been offered by Heifer Project Inc.
THE LORD HAS WONDERFULLY BLESSED

We are discovering a beautiful island and a beautiful people. The kind help
already shown is outstanding and we face the tremendous challenge of this
work with deep humility. In just these first nine weeks we have settled our boys
in school, seen our land acquired and surveyed and our fence and farm, both
started. We have built shed for building supplies and have drawn blueprints for
the Clinic. Children's Home and our own home. We plan to work on all three
simultaneously if funds are designated. Already we have a reasonable amount
to begin the home for our missionary family pictured above.
SPRINGS OF LIVING WATER

We had begun a search for a firm to drill for water on our property which was to
cost some $3000.000. The next day we were on the property when we heard the
boys shout for us. A few moments later we were kneeling in thanksgiving at the

side of a Ij^utiful bubbling^sprjng producing pure water for our future projects,
(see front cover) Let us praise the Lord whilehand in hand we discover more of
this most challenging field of labor. We need you - your prayers and your
support. We need this togetherness.

moved to Haiti in ^[anuary 1978 leaving behind a capable Board of Directors and
a stable Jamaican income to support the work they had established. They have

remained managing directors of that work for an indefinite period. In Haiti they
have received the blessing of the President Son Excellence M. Jean Claude
Duvalier and work has now begun toward a similar project to the Jamaican

work. They are proud of their Jamaican Board and the excellent job they are
doing in their own country with their own resources. This is a real proof of this
young nation's ability to be independent and we pray God's continual blessing
on them.

Shirley's degrees and her her twelve years in the

U.S. Navy with rank of Lt. Commander will serve
her well as she begins her work of establishing
the Medical Clinic at Christianville.

Building

plans are drawn which include a dental wing, a

lab and a minor surgery. It is hoped that the work

will progress into a small hospital as we try to
meet the needs of the people in our area.

Don and Julia Wheeler, our.forward-

,:J_na agents spent nine days with us

in April. It was a great visit. They
were deeply impresed with our work
in Haiti and pledged themselves
anew to their task of being our coworkers. This year marks their
lifteenth anniversary of being our
forwarding agents and we do thank
God for their faithful help. Now they
have renewed vigor in helping us to
build for Christ here. They are
especially thrilled with all that the
Government is doing to assist us
and have returned to carry the good
news to you. They are available for
speaking engagements in Florida.

Compassion's Ed Kimball visited our

Jamaica family in Haiti during March
and we were all thrilled to have him.

Compassion Inc. has been support

ing our boys on a monthly basis for
many years having chosen our Home
in Jamaica to be a part of their
world-wide family. Compassion
finds sponsors for kids in homes

where

they

can

be

assured

Christian family life and sends a

monthly gift toward their support.

They also send an annual gift of
school clothing. When we had a fire
at home in Jamaica Compassion
sent $1000.00 toward rebuilding.
Again they have proved their love for
God's children by pledging support
for the children we plan to help here.
We praise the lord for this.

Anita's love for babies and tiny tots

is outstanding. She did an excellent

job in Jamaica re-building a Govern
ment children's home and in serving
as a Home Superintendent. But
Anita lost her work-permit in Jamai

ca's struggle for becoming complety

independent, and followed us to
Haiti. She quickly attached herself
to the family and is now hard at work
helping Christianville. Her role often
finds her at the property working

with building plans or generally

assisting. But her aim is to eventual
ly supervize the Christianville Child
ren's Home.

Coming downstairs very early one
morning. Mommy heard the sound of
voices in the boys' bedroom. Quietly
opening thedoorshe looked in and saw
all six of the younger set already
dressed and sitting around on the beds
together studying their Bibles. They
have received new Bibles for Easter and

were enjoying the study together.

Mommy slipped away quietly for her

JUNIOR

camera, snapped the picture without

their realizing she had done so.
Afterward

Cookie

who

was

in

the

kitchen told Mommy that they were up

early like that every morning since they
liad received their new Bibles. We know

(hat in time their Bible study will be a

great blessing to them. Remember what
David said? <Thy Word have I hid in my
heart that I might not sin against Thee.

LETTERS FROM JAMAICA

Our boys are very happy in Haiti and they are

learning to understand a new language as well as

new friends. School life is somewhat different

and church time as well. But no matter how

happy one is, there is always a special joy In
getting a letter from home in Jamaica. Here is i

P
\'

'

Wayne deeply busy with his letter while the other i; " _
boys stand close by for bits of news they hope he

will give them. Some of ourfriends from Jamaica

''fll

have already visited us here in Haiti and others

have promised to come.
Mommy and Daddy also get letters from Jamaica and the best ones are from the
boys at the Home there. Each little fellow writes and each little fellow expresses
his love for the ones who have gone to Haiti. They are doing well in school and are
all trying their best to be the most well behaved in the Home. Last month we sent
new shoes to each little guy. They are all healthy and happy with Sup't Aunt
Fannie>> and Nursie Peterson.

FAMILY LIFE

There is a lot of fun at No. 1 Fontamara where the Christianviile family now lives.
And there are a lot of chores-chores for Mom and Dad and some for the boys too.
Keeping up with clothes for 8 boys and 6 adults is a big job. And you know that
boys will be boys! Here Aunt Shirley catches up with Darren who has worn his

socks too long without washing them. You can well guess that Aunt Shirley sent
him to the washlub to scrub them when she found them.

LETTERS

will uphold you in our prayers." Joe Garman, American Rehabilitation Ministry.

REPORT ON JAMAICA

Reports for the first three months concerning the Jamaica Christian Boys' Home
show God's blessing. The children have been well, they have gotten along nicely at
school and the financial report is good. The work in Jamaica is sufficiently
supported in Jamaica by free will Jamaican gifts and by rental properties both at
the Home and also those left by the Hergets. James and Carol Herget remain at the

present time as Managing Directors and plan to return before the end of the year for
a visit or at any time of urgent need. A Jamaican Board of Directors is doing an
excellent job. We are particularly grateful to the Jamaican firms and friends who
have so graciously supported the Home through the years and who now have
strengthened their giving and interest. May the Lord bless this work of His.

This was cne of twenty homes located on the Christianville lands. The families

have now been relocated to adjacent lands. These are the people who stand first in
line for the benefits of Christianville. There is hope for these precious people. The
answer comes in a word: SHARING>k Oh, we who have so much., can we not

reach out with a helping hand? How can we tell them of Jesus unless we are willing
to show them through a ministering message? Let us not just preach... let us live
the Christ message!

In memory of Mrs. Kirsien Krjudson

beloved Mother of Mrs Harriet Lorentzen of Boca Raton, Florida. This gift

represents a portion of the will of Kirsten Knudson who in the later years of her

blessing to these children as we use this money toward the building of our
Mission Home. May God bless her memory.

AT WORK IN

HAITI

Ik.'
Suzanne Pohto, Teen Missions' Leader

The concrete fence posts were piled in neat heaps at the top of our small hill at
Christianville. They were heavy. Two men could scarcely carry one of them to
the fence line. But Jim and our boys accepted the challenge and began the job.
At night they came home with the score..sometimes it was 12 posts,
sometimes 10. After a week passed we answered a strange telegram and met a
young woman at the airport who was backed 26 strong by a team of husky
young Americans. Miss Photo said the group had come for six weeks but plans
for four weeks had fallen out - they were available if we needed them. Needed
them? Oh, praise the Lord for His watchful loving care! The four weeks flew by
and now that it is all over we stand amazed at our fence line of over 1000 posts
all neatly laid into two foot holes of concrete. And they are complete with
barbed wire.

FOR WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD..

This verse from Hebrews in God's Holy Word becomes more meaningful as the
days and weeks go by. The fifty posts that Jim and the boys put down were
nearest to the pile and we faced the reality of the tremendous task ahead. A
stronger faith was needed...and we sought it. This is the way God answers
prayer...the way He "removes mountains."
TILLING THESOIL

Fence Posts were not all. The "Teen Missions" team cleared land and esta
blished 14 Grow-Boxes for vegetables made with 60 cement blocks in each and

filled with cane trash. After building the boxes, (a tremendous job) they fenced
the 80 foot square area and dug a ground tank for watering. Finally they planted
the Boxes. Carpentry, masonry and many other jobs filled in every spare hour of
the Team's contribution at Christianville. (See the pictures following.)

THE MISSION HOME

THE MISSION HOME

Sited on top of the only hill on hundreds of acres of farmlands, looking out on
the north to the Blue Caribbean and on the south to a range of beautiful

mountains, Christianville's Mission Home is making good progress.

Foundations are broadly based with stone and walls are beginning to appear
above the surface.

Behind the scenes of busy workers, truckloads of stone and cement rolling in,
and a water-team keeping barrels full, is the important role of seeing that bills
are paid. This is a matter of a step by step exercise of faith. We need...we
pray...and trust. Thank you for hearing the still small voice of the Lord and
sharing with us so that we can see our Mission Home completed.
The home is planned for housing our family of Jamaican boys, offices for the
entire project and quarters for our Directors and co-missionaries. There will be
room for a few needy Haitian boys as well until we are able to build the Christianvilie Children's Home.

WE ASK YOUR PRAYERS

One of our greatest blessings is your constant flow of letters of encouragement.

Oh, how very much this has meant in these early days of our work here in Haiti!
And because God has led us here and crowned our obedience to Him with your

love and gifts, we are assured that He will meet every need for our Mission
Home. Please make it a matter of special prayer that this Home will be a
testimony to God's provision for every need. We want our friends in Haiti as well
as you, to rejoice with us in the knowledge that God hears and answers prayer.

Shirley Peace is busy in her corner of Christianviiie and is anxiously awaiting

JUNIOR

CHRISTIANVILLE JUNIOR

Hello boys and girls! Here's a bit of news about the younger set of the
Christianville family...mainly our Jamaican boys. When school let out at the
end of May the boys were eager to be a part of all the activities at
Christianville for the summer. But at that time they did not know the fun in store
for them that Teen Missions would bring. Each morning the boys rise at 6:00
a.m. have breakfast and prayers, and then spend the whole day until dark,

helping the Teenagers, playing, carrying rock, milking cows, and lots of other
things. Carrying water was an important part of the summer work. Sometimes
there were unexpected jobs like the one in the picture below. Mom was very

glad she had the boys along when this happened! What the picture doesn't
show is the load of lumber that had to be taken off the truck in order to get the

spare tire out! It was a great summer and we are proud of our missionary family
and the willing hearts and hands they gave us. They are great boys!

GROW-BOXES

It was difficult for young boys to see what Grow-Boxes were to be when first
there was so much to do. The cement blocl<s had to be carried from the

roadside, hundreds of them and the boys did their share along with the Teens.

Then when the Boxes were all planted they had to be watered every night. But
the pleasant part was that the Haitian children gathered ' round and gave the
boys a lot of help. It was a real joy to see them all working together as a team.

Now the plants are almost ready to bear and we want to share some of the good
things with our Haitian boys and girls.

Dear Christian Family,

It's good to know that you are a real part of our family and work here in
Haiti. Thank you for being so helpful in prayers and love and giving. We
deeply appreciate.

Last month we did not write you because we sent you the EVANGEL with lots of

good news. If you did not get it, please let us know, V/e are now hurrying

with a new Issue for there Is so much more to tell you. Christianvilie Is
certainly on the move.

Around the first of July we got a strange telegram asking us to meet a cer
tain young lady at the airport. V/e met her and found that she represented
0 "Teen Missions" Team who were on the plane with her ready to spend six
weeks in Haiti. They had two weeks spoken for and asked if they could give
us the balance of four in which time they would do any kind of work that we
might have at Christianvi1le. While we were talking 26 other husky young
Americans filed out of the Airport loaded with shovels, hammers, trowels,
"tons" of food, tents, seeds, fertilizers and other gear.

They pitched their tents on Chri stianvi 1le's 2k acres, lirprovtsed a kitchen
in the work-shed and presented themselves for work the next morning. In the
past two weeks they have planted over 1000 heavy cement posts in two foot deep
holes with concrete.

They also built fourteen cement-block "Grow Boxes" and

have them ready for planting next week. These five by thirty foot boxes meant
carrying by hand hundreds of cement blocks from the road some 300 feet away.
Financially speaking they pay their own way
terials they work with...cement, wire, even

Our "Builder" did not want to start our Mission House when he heard that we had

only $10,000.00 In the fund. He said the house would cost $^*0,000,00. We told
him to go ahead and we would pray about it. Surely the Lord would supply. So
he started and four days later a couple from Indiana sent us $3,100.00. It was
the beginning of a great testimony. We are believing Him for every penny that
will be needed for we know He Is able.

Tony Is now at home with us after graduating from University of Tennessee with
a B.S, in Civil Engineering. He is looking for vjork here In Haiti
that he
can be with us for awhile. We are very proud of him and his testimony for the
Lord. He was secretary of the Christian Campus Ministry at U.T. for three years

0 Lord, constrain and move Thy church

The glad news to impart
And Lord, as Thou dost stir Thy church.
Begin within our hearts.

Dear Brethren,

The "Good News'" has once again reached the hearts of seeking men and women.

Jim baptized J^ifteen into Christ during August, twelve of them had been attend
ing Meadowbrook church and three were teenage campers.//Praise God - the Word
has again taken root.

One of the converts, a fine young man, is praying for

his Roman Catholic wife who attends regularly with him.

Last night marked a forward step in evangelism as Jim chaired a meeting of

workers from five churches who joined the Christian Evangelizing Association of
the Jamaica Christian Boys' Home. iVe planned for the establishment of a church

near Sun Mt Camp and for a circulation of preachers among the five churches.
Meadowbrook has offered a salary of $55.00 per week to one of the ministers so
that he might leave his position and give full time to the ministry.

And the "cup of cold water" has been given to another precious little soul as
Howard found his place at the Home table, and knelt to pray beside a little
white crib in the Nursery. "Inasmuch"...yes, it is all for Him, for our loving
Saviour of whose Kingdom are little children,
as he joins the clamor for Daddy's knees.

Howard is another "Daddy's Boy'

The summer ended with joy unspeakable. Jim put his arm around me as we sat
watching the sun set. We were both happy and thankful as we reviewed the
blessings of success in our new camp program at Sun Mountain. There were three

regular camps besides our work-camp weeks. U'e have found that Sun Mt grounds
are far more promising than we had even-dreamed.. How we do thank God for this
challenging ministry for Jamaican youth! And we sincerely thank Pat Carrington

of Largo, Fla, for coming out to help us this summer.

How very much we both appreciate your support!

H^did a great job.

VJe only wish you could share

the testimonies of the faithful Christians who have found Christ because of our

labors. They are stars in your crown..fruit of your labor, the answer of your
outreach to the lost of this world. God bless you and keep you ever loving the
little children of the world, ever helping the lost to know Jesus.

Yoursr^aithfully serving.

HE CAME UNTO HIS OWN

Born in humble circumstances Jesus walked al ease among His people. Along
the wayside, through the crowded villages, sharing the stench of boats with
stale fishwaters along the seaside Jesus worked, taught, commanded and loved.
The Spiritual ministry of Jesus was not one of words alone, ever! He healed the
sick and made the blind to see. And He took a little child into His arms and said,
"of such is the Kingdom of Heaven."

The world's need has not changed. Nor has the Son of man changed. He still
holds the key and shares it with whomsoever will. That key is love and today it
performs the same wonders as it did 2000 years ago. The sick, the blind, the
little children - they are all still here. Our message for Haiti is not in word alone
but in doing the will of the fvlaster, following in His footsteps.

Language barriers during our first

Have they time to smiie? Ah! See all around you...everyone is waiting to smiie if
you will just cast an eye in their direction.
I see you have to smile too. That's because their smile is so real it demands one
of you.
Do they hurt? Yes, just as you do. They do mind being poor. They do care that
their baby dies when it should not have had to. The sidewalk is hard when there
is no where else to sleep and tears fall when there is no bread for the children.

But the beauty of Haiti's people lies in their willingness to work their way out of
problems.

They do not sit and bemoan their fate.

They rise and smile and find a way out.
No grumbling. No complaints.
See a beautiful people and learn a lesson.

CHRISTIANVILLE
NEEDED URGENTLY

Shortly after receiving our gift of land from the President of Haiti last March, w/e rejoi
ced in finding a beautiful spring of water flowing through the property. Some people
felt it might dry up during the dry months. Butit has continued to flow abundantlyand
serves our cows and farm lands in a wonder.fiil way. We truly thank the Lord for this.
Then the time came for us to consider drinking the waterand so we had it tested, only
to find that the water was completely unfit tor human use. We could have been dis

couraged but instead began praying about drilling a well. Haiti Water Supply Inc.
offered to drill the well at a generously reduced price. And so by faith we ordered the
job done. Now a well drilled two hundred feet down is completed and giving us
enough pure water to serve all of our projects at Christianville and also to serve the
nearby neighbors of whom there are several hundred.

Oh how good it is to see water coming up pure and sparkling from our new well! What

about the cost? And payment? The bill for the drilling is $5,073.00 and we have paid
half ot it. This does not include the pump or a generator to run the pump. We need
your prayers. Water is as important as a roof over our heads and our Heavenly Father
knows and cares.

OUR NEEDS OVER THE YEAR

END INCLUDE PURCHASING
A DEEP WELL PUMP AND A

GENERATOR, AND

PAYING

THE BALANCE OF THE DRIL

LING BILL.

Please remember these needs

in your prayers.

THANK YOU
IVe thank God upon every remembrance of you.

Even our little boys are deeply Impressed vi/ith the gifts and services of the
friends of Christianville. They see the sacrifice - it is very obvious. And from the
hearts of all of us come thanks that are real and warm with love. Again we can't

mention all gifts but we do feel that the loving help of our Haitian friends
mentioned here will make our foreign friends rejoice in that they are sharing the

burden as well as the joy of growth at Christianville. God bless you all, whether
near or far.

He wants you to know that you

must be very carefuf of your
eyes, and piease don't play

CHRISTIANVILLE
JUNIOR

with bow and arrowsl

You see, in September Derrick and the boys were playing and one of the arrows
they were playing with stuck in Derrick's eye. He went to the hospital for an
operation and has been in bed for neariy eight weeks. Now the Doctor says he

can be up and around the house, but no school until Juanuary. This has been a
difficult time for Derrick but he has been a very good little boy, never complains
and always has a sweet smile for everyone. Derrick stays in Mommy and
Daddy's bedroon for that is the most quiet place and he has had to lie very still.
We are thankful that God has heard our prayer and is making his eye well. Only
God could have made him well for his eye was very very badly hurt. Won't you
say thank-you to God with us?
Derrick and his Doctor, Dr. Gerard Frederique. have become very good friends
because Doctor took such wonderful care of him. Last week Derrick promised to
bake him a cake as soon as he is well.

SATURDAYS AT
CHRISTIANVILLE

Now that the boys are back in

school they only have holidays
and Saturdays to go to Christianville. But those days are
lots of fun. One of the big jobs
is to go to the river for water.
Wayne drives the truck and
stops right in the river and

then the boys all help to fill

the

drums

and

barrels.

Of

course they have fbn... and

you know they get wet too!

THERE ARE MANY JOBS

Yes, carrying water is only one. After

the cows were fenced in we needed a

gate. And see that gate post? Those

fellows did a great job with it.
Dozens of trees have been planted

by the boys and they chose ever

greens to line the driveway. But they
took special care to put plenty of
fruit trees out too.

ALL WORK ANDNO PLAY

makes the Christianville boys dull. And so we have our

fun times too. Here you see Dave sharing a bag of

popcorn that Daddy just made. The boys like to see
him go to the kitchen on Saturday nights after game
time. That means a treat! Everyone likes a birthday in

the family for there is always a cake. You ought to see

all the "lickers" waiting to lick the cake bowl when
Mommy finally turns the cake into the oven.

Mill
GROWING UP

Wayne is 16. Mom and Dad can hardly believe

that 15 years have passed since Wayne came to
live in our home. He is a wonderful big brother to

the little fellows and a great help to Daddy.

Wayne is a senior in high school this year and

would like to go to college.

Thank you boys and girls for your loving gifts

that are helping

our boys to

grow

up

as

Christians, loving Jesus. Please pray for them
