| One of the best parts about this job is all of the incredible people I get to work with! The above picture is of Erigeur and Madame Erigeur (I'll try to find her given name to include it here) with their daughter. They are both very gifted CHE trainers. “Copyright © 2012 Deborah Carr” |
As you will have seen in my latest
newsletter and Christmas card, I returned to the United States in late November to discern next steps in ministry with my main sending church, Epic Christian Church. (If you don't get my newsletter, please let me know!) My mission organization, Medical
Ambassadors International (MAI), asked me to continue working with
them in a different region. However, the
local Haiti team and our American church partners have asked me to
continue working with them in Haiti.
Ministry in Haiti has expanded so much
over the past two years that I have been there – not due to me but
due to the fact that so many people are hearing about the
effectiveness of our ministry tools, Community Health Evangelism
(CHE), and are asking us to partner with them all over Haiti. In
addition, our dedicated volunteer trainers continue to spread the
good news of the whole gospel, which in these tragic times of cholera
has been recognized for the good news that it is, both physically and
spiritually! It is so exciting to be part of a ministry that is
bearing so much fruit.
So, after much prayer and counsel, I have resigned from MAI but I will be continuing with the same work in Haiti as a missionary sent out by my Arizona church, which has an account for me and will accept donations for my work (see below for how to do this). I will be traveling in the US and Europe from January to March, visiting friends and family. During this time I will work remotely, assisting our American church partners with their communication and plans with the local Haiti team and helping the local team in other ways that they ask.

| Here I am with Erigeur's son on their porch. He'd exchanged shirts with his little friend this day (she's a girl). One of the elements of my job that I like the most is interpreting -- here for the photographer of this picture, Deborah Carr, and our Canadian interns at the time, Rick and Rhonda Hamilton. “Copyright © 2012 Deborah Carr” |
