Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled;
notwithstanding ye give them not those
things which are needful to the body;
what doth it profit?

Dear friends
Warm
greetings
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
Jesus Christ,
I
am
writing
you
today
on
behalf
of
the
brothers
in
Haiti,
as
the
apostle
Paul
once
wrote
on
behalf
of
the
Saints
of
Judea.
As
you
probably
know,
I
have
come
to
know
the
country
quite
well.
I
have
developed
a
great
love
and
concern
for
the
Haitian
brethren
ever
since
my
first
missionary
trip
to
Haiti,
in
1989.
As
I
have
gone
back
over
60
times,
I
have
come
to
know
the
local
churches
and
their
leaders
very
well.
Although
the
common
people
mostly
express
themselves
in
Creole,
French
is
actually
the
official
language,
such
that
every
time
I
preach
in
the
nation's
capital,
Port-au-Prince,
or
any
of
the
other
larger
cities,
I
simply
preach
in
French.
The
lack
of
language
barrier
has
greatly
facilitated
interpersonal
relationships
and
helped
create
lasting
bonds.
Every
time
I
go,
I
am
struck
by
their
great
poverty,
and
the
tremendous
lack
of
just
about
everything:
from
life
sustaining
essentials
to
indispensable
Christian
supplies,
such as Bibles, Message books, and the like.
November
2009,
I
decided
to
resign
as
pastor,
in
order
to
embrace
the
mission
field,
full-
time.
My
son-in-law,
Bro.
Steeve
Brisson,
is
now
pastoring
the
Assemblée
Lumière
du
Soir
(Evening
Light
Assembly)
that
I
had
been
pastoring
for
17
years,
out
of
Warden,
in
the
province
of Quebe in Canada.
For
many
years
now,
brother
Raymond
Hébert
(from
Madawaska,
Maine,
USA)
has
been
travelling
there
with
me.
We
have
brought
literally
thousands
of
Bibles,
thousands
of
Message
tapes,
and
thousands
of
French
biographies
that
brother
André
Morin
had
written,
back
in
1983.
We
were
even
able
to
get
3,333
of
these
biographies
printed
in
Santo
Domingo,
on
the
Dominican
Republic
side
of
the
island,
at
half
price,
and
then
cross
them
over
to
Port-au-Prince,
on
the
Haitian
side,
again
at
a
very
low
cost.
By
the
grace
of
God,
we
were
also
able
to
distribute
500
MP3s,
each
containing
around
300
French
messages.
Up
until
then,
the
ministers
only
had
a
couple
of
Message
books
to
go
around.
With
the
ministers'
needs
covered,
we
then
helped
them
set
up
a
printing
shop
in
Port-au-Prince,
so
that
Message
books
could
be
made
available
to
the
Haitian
Bride
on
a
larger
scale.
There
are
roughly
20,000
believers
in
Haiti
worshipping
in
approximately 160 churches... and their numbers are on the rise, each and every year.
The Lord willing, I will be travelling to Haiti as often as required.
Thank you for your trust and generosity, and may the Lord bless you richly,
Brother André Petit
