Weekend of Prayer & Fasting

This weekend, which has always been Mardi Gras or Carnival, a holiday given to satan, has been declared by President Preval, a weekend of prayer and fasting. Yesterday, word was sent that everyone should pray at home because the churches wouldn't be able to hold everyone. Early this morning Milo, the pastor at the community church here, came running over to get the key to storage to get all the extra chairs out. And, he needed to get the planks and blocks out of storage to make more benches for people to sit on. Now, the church is so full that people have to sit outside in the sun (which they never like to do as it's so hot there) but they said they didn't mind. You can hear the singing and praise from the church here in the house. The shouts sound like a soccer game. Oh you can't imagine the site!! People everywhere gathering to pray and praise the living God!!! God is moving! God is moving! Oh, miracle of miracles, God be praised. Never have we seen such response in Haiti!! I feel like Simeon when he held the Christ child at the temple. If the last 40 years we have served in Haiti, in hope to see this point of revival, the time is all worth it. Please pray with us that this nation will proclaim itself a Christian nation instead of a voodoo nation. God hears!!
God Bless You,
