Rehoboth Ministries

I’m sitting in our warm, dry den this morning gazing out upon a beautiful green yard. It’s green and lush from all the rainfall for which we’re thankful. Yet, a simple five-minute trip down the mountain reveals a radically different scenario. Flooded streets, lots and lots of mud, and pedestrians…

All eyes have been on the American elections lately and talk of the results is far from over. One thing is for certain which we should all agree upon. We need to pray for our President-elect. On another front, Haiti’s Presidential election is just around the corner. 20 November (Sunday),…

Despite Haitian holidays, then days of nonstop rain and massive flooding in Cap-Haitian, our schools will finally reopen on Monday. Our area in Petite-Anse was one of the hardest hit of them all because our church members don’t live too far from the sea. We’ve heard report after report of…

  As all eyes are riveted on the U.S. elections, nature is wreaking havoc in Haiti. We’ve had several days of nonstop rain here in the Cap-Haitien area. The last estimate I’ve heard is that there has been 17 inches of rainfall. Driving down the mountain to the Hotel Christophe today…

We have just ended a week of tremendous ministry. Pastor Steve Fitzpatrick (San Diego, CA) along with Pastor Normand and Véronique Leduc (Quebec) taught in our Bible institute as well as ministered in our churches.

10 years ago today Prit, myself, and our yardman were kidnapped at gunpoint. After being paid $300 U.S. to kill Prit in the churchyard, the kidnappers decided it was more profitable to kidnap us instead and demand far more money than a mere $300. The sum quickly became $300,000. Our…

Haiti’s Nightmare It’s been nothing short of a nightmare this past week for many families who reside in the south of Haiti. How can I begin to describe the devastation and loss of life which have now caused a food crisis and new cholera outbreak? Matthew’s wrath left several cities…

Prit and I have been attending a ministerial conference all week long here in Portland. We were due to fly out tonight to Miami. However, after lashing out against Haiti and leaving at least 108 people dead, Matthew’s fury is now aimed at the coast of Florida. Prit and I were due to…

I am writing from a hotel in Portland where we are attending an MFI Conference. We plan to take an all-night flight back to Haiti on Friday (Portland – Charlotte – Miami – Cap-Haitian.) Doing all this in one voyage exhausts me to even think about it! We thank all…
