During this special time of year, we reflect on the blessings God has given to us. Joy in Haiti is so thankful for those who have supported this ministry. 2018 has been a challenging year. The unrest in Haiti has been concerning, but God continues to work through His people and grow His kingdom.
The House of Joy home was completed so the girls have a nice place to live. Now that some of the girls are reaching their teenage years, challenges in behavior are beginning to emerge. There is a big need for house parents who are present throughout the day and night to provide supervision and counsel. That is our number one prayer for HOJ. Three of the girls still need sponsors so we can meet their financial needs. The cost is $100 a month.
The New Christian School has 182 students which includes prekindergarten through 8th grade. We have many students who still need to be sponsored at $200 a year. Joy in Haiti partners with the parents to cover the cost of staff, lunch, and books. Education is an essential part of improving this country. A Saturday music school was launched to provide local youth with the opportunity to learn how to play an instrument and use their gifts to glorify God. Instruments were donated by many friends in the U.S., and the students are very thankful for this opportunity.
The New Christian Church of Tabarre moved into its new building in September, which was celebrated with an attendance of over 500 people! The most pressing need for the church is a roof as tarps are not keeping the rain out. The congregation has been raising money, but they are having a hard time completing it due to the large expense. Please pray for this to be accomplished so the building can be used more often for community study and fellowship.
This year, seven groups from the U.S. went to share God’s love with our Haitian brothers and sisters. Each group was called in different ways; evangelism, feeding programs, teaching, VBS, Dance, Music, and fellowship. We invite you to join a team to go and serve our Lord in 2019. You will be blessed to be a blessing.
