Three C3 partner churches from the Gainesville, FL, area visited Haiti last month. The trip enabled 2 churches to check on major projects they are involved in. The third church attended the dedication of their new church building and school, which was just finished - and the dedication of the new cistern under the sanctuary! We shared about this in the August 2023 issue of the Ministry Highlights. They built the church on top of a 13,000-gallon cistern. The water would be accessed by a solar pump.
RMI President, Dan Shoemaker, joined the team. They met the RMI Haiti staff, several pastors from the district, and the president of MEBSH at the new sanctuary to cut the ribbon and for a service of dedication.
What a celebration! Many dignitaries delivered special messages and prayers, and different choirs sang special songs. After the service, they shared a meal together. The church really rolled out the red carpet.
The church, school, and especially the cistern will minister to the entire community for many years!
