On October 19, 2014, Haiti Awake became a reality as our webpage, Facebook page, and Instagram were created and our original staff was officially hired and put on payroll.
Today we give thanks to God as we look back over the mountains and valleys He has walked us through. We are learning what it means to engage in healthy cross-cultural relationships, how to live the Gospel day-by-day in an authentic way, and how to remain hopeful in the midst of difficult times because our assurance is in the One who is always faithful.
The last 5 years have taught us how to be human together, to share the happy and sad, to walk together through days we want to remember forever and moments we would choose to forget.
It’s been said that the noise and chaos of life is proof that you’re actually living. If that is true, then we are most surely fully alive at Haiti Awake.
Our prayer as we embark on our 6th year of ministry together is found in Ephesians 4:
Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.
