Visiting Jacmel

Today I travelled to Jacmel to meet with a young reporter who works for a Canadian newspaper, "The Globe and Mail". Her name is Jessica Leeder Jessica is in Haiti covering Jacmel and Pastor Marcelin’s ministry for the religion section of her report. Jessica and I discussed the many opportunities that coverage in Canada could hold for PPM – especially possibilities for our girls to gain acceptance in Canadian schools to complete their educations. To view her articles, visit www.globeandmail.com and look for the “Haiti” link.

I also visited with Pastor Marcelin who is the pastor of the large Tabernacle Baptist Church consisting of more than 800 members. He is the principal of one of the largest Christian schools in Jacmel (more than 750 children). The school’s classes are now meeting under tarps because the buildings were destroyed by the earthquake. I showed Pastor Marcelin the Proclaimer and he is amazed at the possibilities it holds for many of his older members who attend Bible study but cannot read or write. Please pray for Pastor Marcelin’s school and ministry in Jacmel.

Serving Christ,
