Across the Mountains---Haiti Book is finally available!

We finally finished the task we set out to do five years ago! Actually I have been working on putting out  a book on Haiti for seven years. Alot of the Haiti articles you have read about on this blog was material I used in this book. Parts of the project go back thirty years ago as missionaries started compiling material together. Across the Mountains is a record of the various programs the COGICM have been involved with in Haiti. Humanitarian work, CSI, 1-W service, history of the congregations, the sinking of the Neptune and Conversion (New Birth) and Eathquake testimonies. It covers a span from 1966-2014.

575 pgs. 70 Illus.

You can order the book from Gospel Publishers or

Wiebe's Quotes-- Letters From A Martyred Christian

Realize that every person is a target of his bankruptcy.

God made you as a vessel that overflows with what is beautiful.  Because of this, you are a target.  Be careful.  Every part of you that is empty of God is filled with the “nothing” that describes this world.  Without God-filled confidence you are vulnerable to pride.  Being filled with His Spirit brings intimacy, and being barren of the same breeds codependence.  God is love, and lust fills the void of His absence. You will be filled either with Everything or with nothing.  The only way to discern the difference is to know Him.

One day this world will say, “Did you really think I could love you?”

Do not be taken in.

H.L. Hussmann

Why Gospel Tracts?

1. Tracts can get inside homes and stay there. You can't.

5. Tracts never get discouraged.

6. Tracts are willing to travel anywhere.

7. Tracts can work 24 hours per day.

8. Tracts are not expensive.

9. Tracts can be read many times over.

10. Tracts contain portions of Scripture, which God will use and bless (Isaiah 55:10,11).

(I do not know the authorship of these points--I recieved them from full time tract worker)

None in Hell

"Tracts everywhere!" said a young man with a sneer as a Christian handed him a gospel tract one afternoon. "No," said the tract distributor quietly, "there will be none in hell," and passed on. God fastened that single sentence in that young man's mind as a nail in a sure place and he could not get rid of it. "None in hell!" seemed to echo in his ears every time he saw a tract, and ultimately he was converted.

For those that like something with more visual there is another resource that I have used in the past. These tracts cost a little, but they definitely can catch your short attention span.

Wiebe Quotes: Saving the Church in America--Paul Washer

I pray with all my heart, the only thing that’s going to save the church in America,

there’s only two possibilities. One is a total reformation in our preaching and our study

of the Word of God, and the other is fierce, horrifying persecution. That’s the only thing

that’s going to save the church in America.

Paul Washer

Wither's Book: Heartstrings in Haiti by Alice Warkentin

A good book on a good work. Raymond and Vera Wither's terrace, road work and dedication to helping their fellow man has been an inspiration to me and now you can read the story. How they went into the interior of southern Haiti and fell in love with a country and people. Later they went to Nepal and China to find ancient and tried methods to build efficient and suitable terraces for Haiti's  erosion situation. He also found an open way to build roads so communities could be connected to markets and the rest of the country. It shows how simple acts of kindness like giving a piece of bread to a child can open large bureaucratic doors later on. Finally learn how you can live your retirement helping others. The book was published by Inspiring Voices, (a service of Guideposts). I am sure the proceeds will go to furthering the work and vision in Haiti. 

Busy. Busy. Like Normal...

I have been too engaged to really to do justice to the blog. I have moved to Winton. Pace of life has definitely picked up. Still working on the Haiti book. I hear Raymond Withers, terrace builder, former missionary has a book coming out in another month. .
 If I receive any information about the Oriani clinic I will post it here. However I believe Director Keith Toews has a regular column in the Business Bulletin. Thank-You.

Oriani Clinic in Haiti

There is a link I found that has a few pictures of the New Clinic that we have reported on in the past.
