Pestel Trip Diary

We are so thankful for a wonderful trip to Pestel!  The people of Pestel are glad to welcome their visitors and are so thankful for the support that Variety International & Miss World have given their community.  What an impact their generosity has had on this long-neglected area.
 
Frequently, Ben isn't able to have much communication with us when he is in Pestel.  This trip, thanks to some of his technologically savvy travel companions, we can follow their trip from afar.  They have done an exceptional job of sharing their thoughts on what they have seen.  Their writings also provide a comprehensive view of the wide-ranging needs the people of Pestel face. 
 
The Miss World Newsfeed has a wide following and will hopefully draw attention to the work being done with the money raised by Miss World and Variety International.  Visit the link below to see what the team is experiencing.
Please continue to pray for safety and health as the team travels back to Port-au-Prince tomorrow.

I do not doubt that the modern Western church badly needs a lot of things, one of them being more confidence that God is working powerfully among us and wants us to do more than we have been willing to do in his service.   John G. Stackhouse
