Since coming back to Haiti on June 7, we have had a chance to experience some of its beauty |
Dear Friends and Family:
Greetings
from Haiti! On June 9 we arrived safely
in Haiti with our whole family. Honestly,
it has been a challenging readjustment to life in Haiti. Nine months is a long time to be gone. Also, June and July are among our most busy
and stressful months with teams and projects.
By God’s grace, we are readapting to life in Haiti little by little. We would like to thank you for your prayers
and also thank our colleagues in Haiti who worked so hard in our absence.
Please
join us in giving thanks to God for:
1.
A safe and successful trip for the youth team from Cascade CRC and Thornapple
Community Church (Grand Rapids, MI).
This team of 34, our second largest team ever, had a busy and impactful
week with us. See our blog for more
details.
2.
Safe arrival and good health. Though one
of our children was traveling with strep-throat, we finally found the right
anti-biotic to treat it.
3.
A good reception from our colleagues. We
have been blessed by many phone calls and visits from our colleagues whom we
have not seen for nine-months.
4.
Lots of ministry needs and opportunities.
It is nice to feel needed!
Please
join us in praying for:
1. Our greatest prayer
request for the next year is that God would lead a new missionary family to
Haiti. It is critical that we find a qualified
candidate as soon as possible. Please
help us spread the word. The job
description is posted at:
2. The
director of Back to God Ministries International (BTGMI), Pastor Kurt Selles, will
be visiting Haiti in July. BTGMI is the
primary supporter of Perspectives Réformées, our French-language radio
ministry. Pray that Kurt’s visit will
help shed light on the future of PR in Haiti.
3. Pray for
the ongoing conflict within our partner, the CRC of Haiti. Since part of the conflict is about money, we
have engaged an auditing firm to analyze four years-worth of transactions. We know an audit will not resolve the conflict. However, pray that it will provide information
that can help lead to a resolution.
Thanks for
your prayers and support,
Zachary,
Sharon, Hannah, Vivian, Isaiah and Esther Segaar-King
