Our purpose and vision is to stand with and love out Haitian brothers and sisters as life in Haiti is very challenging
spiritually, politically, physically, and economically. I am reminded of the Apostle Paul's affirmation to Christians
everywhere:
"Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor
one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in
hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with Gods people who are in need. Practice hospitality."
Romans 12:9-13
Every time you and I offer prayers, a helping hand and financial help, we are honoring others above ourselves while
giving joy and hope. Together we are making a significant difference in the lives of a Haitian Pastor, his faithful
flock and his mission field.
Haitian Emergency Relief Effort
During the February 16, 2008 meeting with the MPLF Pastors in Jeremie, Haiti, Pastor Chenier expressed available
there, must travel to states or PAP, travel challenges, pastoral challenges and struggles to maintain buildings in usable
conditions.
The U.S. Board present took some steps to alleviate some of the problems presented. We were able to purchase 8
motorcycles (originally, we were going to purchase 5 bikes with U.S. $7500). We were also able to replenish the
standing U.S. $600 pastor's medical account which had been used some time ago.
During the March 2008 U.S. Board teleconference, we posed the question if we could send U.S. $40 per month to
each of the 14 Mission Par La Foi pastors currently not being supported for a total of U.S. $560. The board
unanimously voted to send support each month while praying that God would touch individuals and raise up those
who can give to Faith Mission in order to continue this critical financial support.
Please be in prayer and ask God what you can do to help. Contact us and let us know you are praying. If you feel

By this time you have seen images and watched news reports out of Haiti of the devastating earthquake that has struck Port-au-Prince on Tuesday, January 12, 2010. Although the main focus of Faith Mission, Inc. has always been centered in Jeremie, Haiti, our connections and the connections of those Haitian Nationals in Jeremie are linked to friends and family working in Port-au-Prince.
While we appreciate your donations to help with relief efforts, Faith Mission is focused on the long term rebuilding of Haiti after immediate needs are met. If you are interested in sending money for urgent relief, such as medical attention, food and water, we would direct you to send your gifts to Mission of Hope Haiti.
