UPDATE - Metedieu & Marie Lucien, National Church Planter, Haiti 8/30/10

Our God is the Living God, He is Sovereign. As you know, my country, Haiti, experienced the worst catastrophe and tragedy in its history, the  earthquake  of January 12th. The quake, which lasted 35 seconds, killed about 300,000 people and Port-au-Prince, Jacmel, Leogane and Petit-Goave were devastated. I lost some friends and relatives; God in His sovereignty spared my life and family, but allowed my church to collapse.

Dear brothers and sisters, I thank you for your prayer and support; owing to it great things have been done. I am rebuilding the church but still worshiping in the open air. Keep praying for us to get the roof done soon. The next day after the quake, I visited some areas and met a lot of hopeless kids laying in the streets whose parents were killed. My wife and I took 10 of them to live with us. We started an orphan home called New Hope Orphanage.

Prayer Requests :

• Health and strength for me and my family to keep doing the work here in Haiti
• Finances to make a metal roof for Missionary Baptist church
• Finances to take care of the orphans of New Hope Orphanage

May God keep on blessing you and renew your country.
