The Work in Haiti
Dear Ones, Beloved of the Lord,
There has been so much work that we have been doing over the last couple of years that I have not really had time to write about. This morning, in my spirit, I feel strongly that I should tell you of some of these things.
First, some background: When we first started working in Haiti, it was with an American Mission, Northwest Haiti Christian Mission. Several Canadian churches got together and built a pharmacy on their property in St. Louis du Nord. A much loved Canadian, Maureen, set up and ran the medical laboratory. Later, Maureen became the director of the pharmacy as well as the lab.
During all this time, we began growing in Canada, and were recognized as a charitable organization. It seemed natural to us to call ourselves by the same name, Northwest Haiti Christian Mission, adding Canada to the title. We never dreamed of doing anything else.
