Haiti Update

The Haiti Team has been escorted by police to a safe house in Port-au-Prince where they will stay until Tuesday before departure back home. It was an attempt for several hostages for ransom. Since we do not do ransoms at any time for any reason, if these guys would have been successful we would have had casualties. My Supt. said that 30 minutes before the attempt there were children playing outside and children could have easily been abducted.

The latest report on our Missionary David Shoenhals is that the bullet was lodged in the jaw and never exited through the brain. Get this, I know of no gun at close range that would not penetrate the jaw bone. But in this case God stopped the bullet with the jaw bone that was not even broken. There were three shots with both arms being hit. One arm is broken. The other arm was not hurt when another bullet passed through. There were lots and lots of shots with three men shooting so God did truly protect the team.

How in the world can we give God praise for these many miracles. It is an amazing story that will live with this team for many years to come.

Hallelujah! Praise God! His mercies are new every morning and his love knows no bounds. He alone is worthy of all praise.

Mike, God heard the sincerity of your prayer before you ever thought to pray it. And, He answered accordingly.

What a God of providence!

Yes, yes, yes to everything you proclaim for Him!
