From March 2-9, an outreach team from New Joy Church in Lancaster, Pennsylvania came down to serve the YWAM Haiti staff and the Haitian people. Their week long adventure was posted in this article written by one of the team members:

The DTS headed out on outreach on April 1st! (No joke!) They are visiting main cities and towns all across Haiti and then spending time serving a fairly new YWAM campus planted in Azua:

The DTS are heading for Jeremie in a few days, and amazing things have happened! On the first night of outreach Patrick Ovilmar wrote: “Tonight in Gonaives city 14 people accept Christ and 4 people were healed. The Holy Spirit did that through the power of the students testimonies. Thanks to everyone for your prayers.”

When they visited Cap Haitien and Port-de-Paix, God gave them visions of things to expect. An example? One student got a picture of a teal house facing the ocean. Turned out, a pastor invited them to stay at their place. It was a teal house facing the ocean! Pray for them as the pour out their lives daily to see revival break out in Haiti. One night they prayed for over 114 people, after performing a dance and missing dinner. That sounds like Jesus’ kind of disciples!

News of what God did in the Evangelistic Gathering with the main speaker being Rabbi K.A. Schneider has reached globally! Not only was it aired live in Saint Marc, but to seven of the nine Departments of Haiti and through the Internet. We have received reports of people from Florida and other states in the USA calling family members in Saint Marc asking about the impact of the event and how they had seen their family member at the event!

Our goal was to see 5,000 people packed into our arena and 500,000 listening on radio and TV. We know we had 5,000 plus in the arena and we can only estimate but we believe the 500,000 did hear through radio and TV.

Some of the most dramatic testimonies were impaired vision being restored, lumps disappearing, lame healed and people mentally and emotional touched and healed. It is difficult to know exactly how many accepted Christ. You see, the people were so hungry to receive a touch from God that every time we tried to pray a prayer of repentance every hand seemed to be raised!

The Mayor Jean Rony Eugene and other present and former government leaders and employees opened the city to the presence of God and asked Rabbi to pray a blessing the Mayors office as well as all City Hall. Mayor Eugene was also publicly anointed with oil and blessed by Rabbi Schneider.

Two days after the event the city is still buzzing with what has happened! Another team of Pastors have come together and are having an additional Evangelical Gathering in the center of the city. This event is not directly related to our ministry but directly related to God’s working in St. Marc. Join them in prayer that the dealings of God will continue with even greater strength!

Rabbi Schneider felt lead of God to speak on the fire of the Holy Spirit last night! At the end of his message, he asked everyone to stand, calling on the Holy Spirit to come he blew into the microphone and his horn, the Shofar. As he did the Haitian people, all stand, made shouts of praise with hands lifted high, waving in the air. God began to touch their hearts. As this happened there were those who had demonic manifestations and were quickly taken to the front where they were prayed for and set free.

Each night God is doing something new while going deeper and deeper. Will you join us in believing that God will take His spirit that is being imparted nightly to these people and begin to release it through them into the streets of St. Marc? Join us in believing that people watching TV or listening on Radio will be touched and become activated to share what God is imparting to them.

PASTOR SEMINAR

Rabbi is holding back nothing with the 160 Pastors in attendance. He is speaking the clear truth and then challenging the Pastors to pray through times of repentances about the issues God has laid on his heart. Pastor Louis Wilson, President of Reseau des Chretien pour un Nouveau Depart (Christian Network for New Beginnings) said yesterday with a deep breath and great intensity; “God is doing a deep, deep work in the pastors.”

We went to City Hall yesterday, as requested by the Mayor. We began our time by asking the Mayor and his immediate staff for a private meeting in his office. There we had a powerful prayer time! Rabbi Schneider knelt down and blessed the feet of all the Administration as his wife Cynthia anointed their heads with oil! This act was a powerful and uncommon thing to happen in the office of the Mayor and in HAITI!

It was spoken that there would be a change coming, a double portion of blessing that would be released over St. Marc. Also, that God had imparted a new level of clarity and wisdom due to our Mayors response in inviting the presence of God into City Hall.

Mayor Jean Rony Eugene keeps a Bible openly on his desk. A vision came forth as well. Someone saw into the spiritual realm cords hanging through the roof. These cords were satanic influences. Then the Spirit of God came and all the cords were cut and fell.

Afterwards we went to the center of City Hall and had a public meeting with Rabbi publically blessing the Mayor and the city. Then we enter each office and spoke/sang a blessing in Hebrew over them.

SEMINARS

The Pastor and Worship Leaders Seminars are going very well. God has been using Rabbi Schneider and Joshua James to bring new life and challenge to the pastors and worship leaders.  Lets pray that God will raise the roof and bring greater revelation to these leaders. May God use them to keep the flame burning that the Spirit of God is fanning right now!

LAST NIGHT

We heard of the greatness of God’s love once more from Rabbi Schneider. At the end of his message we had a line of people come forward to give their testimony of how God healed them the night before. In this line was the woman who’s sight had been restored! After a call was given for salvation and then prayer. The crowd rushed the stage so fast that those seated at the front could not get out in the isle before the pressing crowd had totally blocked them in. THEY ARE RUNNING TO BE TOUCHED BY GOD!

We are praying for an open heaven and a Spiritual Awakening! JOIN US!

Taking the High Places!

Last night Rabbi K.A. Schneider was used by God to share His love and the message came with miracles.

LIVES TOUCHED, VISIONS SEEN!

A number of people identified with one lady who shared how deeply God had touched her heart.  Yet there was also physical manifestations.
Another lady shared how she had gone to the Hospital several days earlier, she was given a large prescription which she had no money to have
filled. She came to the meeting last night and she felt God touch her and the pain left. Yet another was losing her sight. After prayer her
vision cleared and was healed!

There has been a sense of the presence of God. There has also been people sharing how they saw a vision of the heavens open and angels
around and ascending and descending.

NUMBERS GROW NIGHTLY!

The number of people coming has been increasing nightly. The meetings are also being televised on two stations, aired in 2/3rd of the
nation. Estimated 500,000 people are able to tune in nightly! Yet, this does not include the number listening in on radio which is usually
even more than TV!

MAYOR JEAN RONY EUGENE BRINGS ENCOURAGEMENT!

During the service last night  Mayor Jean Rony Eugene of Saint Marc came. After witnessing God at worked he declared his support to the
church and the Christian community. Welcoming words after the last administrations oppressive actions for the last four years. Mayor Eugene
then invited everyone including Rabbi Schneider and all the Pastors and Ministers to city hall today (Wed. 2/20/2013) at noon  to pray and
bless his office and City Hall. This was all done on live TV and Radio.

“Pa Gen Chanjman San Bondye!” (There can be no change without God!) This is the theme of our evangelistic gathering February 17-24. Youth With A Mission and RESEAU DES CHRETIENS POUR UN NOUVEAU DEPART (The Christian Network for New Beginnings) have come together in hosting/organizing this Evangelistic Gathering and Leadership Seminar. Our goal is to see 5,000 in attendance, broadcast through radio and TV to over 500,000 and minister to 400 Pastors and Worship Leaders.

“Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12

Rabbi K.A. Schneider (Host for TV Broadcast “Discovering the Jewish Jesus”), Joshua James (Worship & Song Leader “Discovering the Jewish Jesus”), Pastor Claudy Constant (Reseau des Chretiens pour un Nouveau Depart) and Terry Snow (National Director Youth With A Mission Haiti) will be bringing challenging messages concerning God’s love for the people of Haiti and His desire to bring lasting change through relationship in Jesus Christ.

There will be a seminar for pastors and worship leaders. We have limited this to 400 leaders in total due to limited resources. These leaders freely give of their ministry gifts, yet are often forgotten that they too need ministry. Rabbi Schneider and Joshua James will be the key speakers during these seminars of impartation and refreshment. We also hope to give them a good meal to strengthen their physical body.

We believe the lost will be saved and the weak strengthened! The city is already buzzing with the news of this event to be held at the Youth With A Missions Campus Arena Saint Marc, Haiti.

We need your participation! To reach our projected goals we will need added resources of $20,000 USD. We have the location, most of the equipment but there are still additional expenses. There’s the cost of two live television and three radio broadcasts, transportation of 100’s that desire to come but have limited resources, promotion and publications, food and expenses for the seminars for 400 Christian Leaders! Can you help?

Please make your gift payable to YWAM Haiti and mail to;

What a wonderful past two weeks!    Download this update in PDF

With the help of Grace Mennonite Church from Canada we were able to see four families desperately receive needed homes through our Homes of Hope project. These families moved from small mud floor homes to a block homes with cement floors.

 What is a Home of Hope? Can I do the same thing?

Families in Timonette Village

   

Families in Balalie Village

The power of Homes of Hope continues to grow. Fransico, the village leader of Balalie, says; “Many, many, many people are becoming Christian now!” Fransico was not speaking of Balalie only but about all of the surrounding villages. Voodoo has lost major influence as the church has been preaching and demonstrating the greatness of God through Homes of Hope and other practical and evangelistic ways.

THE VILLAGE OF BALALIE EXPERIENCING TRANSFORMATION!

Balalie with her 52 families was first visited in 2008. There were no openly confessing Christians at that time. In the fall of that same year the complete area was devastated by hurricanes. Balalie lost 60% of their homes and remained under water for over two weeks. Our teams were the first and only ones that assisted them. Today more than 60% of the village is Christian. The witch doctor has given up on his magic and while Grace Mennonite Youth came to build yet another Home of Hope, this same witch doctor ask them to pray that he would see and hear God call him by name!

The believers of Balalie, inspired by their new faith in Christ have made significant decisions. One of these decisions is getting married to their common law partner, bringing healing to broken or unstable families. Among them is Fransico the village leader, newly converted and newly married in an official Christian wedding.

Less than a year ago they erected their own church out of wooden poles and coconut branches, slinging a plastic tarp over the top for over flow crowds as seen in the above photo. Then they secured land for a new church. A  significant step in declaring their faith! On the same day of the dedication of the new land for this church, a pastor and church board was officially implemented as the Christian leaders of Balalie. In response, YWAM gave and erected 14 cement poles for this new church structure.

WOW! Is this really happening?

We welcome you to join us on October 2, 2012 at we hold our 6th Youth With A Mission- Haiti annual fundraising banquet at the Shady Maple Banquet Center, East Earl, PA at 6:00 PM. This year’s Banquet has the theme “Championing the Emerging Generation!” In the past Terry Snow, National Director of YWAM-Haiti, has been the key note speaker, but this year it will be the emerging generation that will be stepping up. Wayne Snow, Terry’s eldest son, will lead the way as he presents the vision God has given him to see this generation experience transformation in the city of Saint Marc, Haiti.

The program aims to be a refreshing look at the victories of the past and present, presented by Terry Snow. Terry was the pioneer of YWAM’s work in Haiti that began in 1986. Since that time God has done amazing things in teaching YWAM how to win this city for God, but the full fruit of transformation has yet to be seen. Wayne will be presenting strategy and vision of what it will take for the new emerging generation to win the day! How will the foundations of the past be used as a thrust for the future?

Contributions from this benefit banquet will be an investment in the vision of the emerging generation. As Wayne shares vision, you will hear how your investment will further the transformation of Saint Marc, Haiti. All proceeds will be going directly to the ministry of YWAM Haiti. Please make all checks payable to YWAM-Haiti.

Thank you,

YWAM-Haiti

Banquet Participation Letter

2012 is a year of “New Beginnings”! Already this year we have sensed the turning of the tide as we move on towards transformation as we see many completions to our relief efforts following the 2010 earthquake.

We reached our final goal of moving the last families into new permanent cement block homes, and, this month, we started the construction of a new school in New Beginnings village. Thanks to a Rotary Club in Florida and a partnering church in Louisiana, the first 8 rooms of this 16 classroom school are paid for! This half of the school will enable up to 400 children to receive an education. A need that also is a gift to the 100 families that have just received homes!

School Construction

The new community market promoting jobs and merchant sales is also advancing. This market will allow us to introduce Biblical principles in the “market place,” bringing an environment for the destruction of poverty.

This week we had a wonderful Pastors and Church leaders seminar. 73 people gathered at our campus here in St. Marc. Our goal was to teach these leaders how to move in greater spiritual influence and win more to Christ. During our teaching we all realized that we need to watch so we don’t  fall into satan’s trap of harboring past offenses, but walk in greater unity, utilizing the spiritual gifts God has given us all.

It is hard to believe that it has only been a month and all the above has happened; if the year continues as it has begun we look forward to new releases and healing to come.
