Our Haiti Staff Have Servant’s Hearts

RMI’s Haiti staff work with servant's hearts.  They do their jobs with joy.  They go the extra mile as they work.   Staff jobs include receptionists, data entry, translators, partnership facilitators, administrators, cooks, cleaners, yard work, car, truck, and motorcycle mechanics, garage workers, guards, maintenance workers, and much more.  Much of the work they do is behind the scenes.  They feel called to work for RMI and view it as a ministry to their own people.  

Many of them extend that servant's heart into their home life and serve in various positions in their local church.


Benson Joseph, RMI’s Director of Operations, serves as a deacon and is the accountant for the Simon Baptist Church - MEBSH’s largest church.  This means he preaches, reads the scripture in the service, is a Sunday School teacher, is the First Choir president as well as his accounting duties for the church.


Frantz Desire, RMI’s Hope for Kidz Supervisor, serves by playing piano in his church’s worship band and is the youth group leader.  

Isaac Branched and Windy Forge both are Hope for Kidz Monitors...and they both serve as sound board operators with their church’s worship band.

New employee, Ephena Lafleur, RMI’s bookkeeper, serves her church by being a part of the committee that welcomes visitors and gathers their personal information for pastoral follow-up.

Perguens Hyppolite, RMI’s Senior Partnership Facilitator, serves his church by being a part of the Benevolence Committee, helping those in need in the congregation.

Benson shared that as he is involved in his church, it is a big help for his job in RMI.  We are grateful for the staff that God has brought together to serve Him through RMI.


In addition to those serving in their churches, we have a number of employees who have faithfully served RMI for many, many years.  Recently Rameau Ariste (pictured in the light blue shirt) was honored for working at RMI for 35 years!  There are several other employees that have worked with RMI for 20+ years!  We so appreciate their faithfulness and dedication.
