Through a series of events, a crisis situation has resulted in no funding for the Evangelical
Lutheran Church of Haiti! Until reorganization can occur, the
pastors, lay pastors, and schoolteachers are working without pay. Programs, to
evangelize to a country filled in the darkness of voodoo worship, have been forced to come to a
temporary halt!
With your H. E. L. P!We can provide temporary
funding for the work to continue, until a new program is
in place!
You are urged to contact the person listed on the back of this brochure for more information!
GOD IS AT WORK IN HAITI!(But so is the Devil!)
Church attendance in Haiti is growing rapidly. In 1993, there
were 800 Lutheran worshippers. Today, that number exceeds 18,000 and over 14,000 in Lutheran schools.The Haitian people are hungry for the Gospel and Baptism.
They desire to break away from the chains of darkness and the
grip of Satan!We can H. E. L. P! our sister synod in Haiti to continue God’s work!
They need OUR prayers!They need our financial support!
HAITI… is the poorest country in the
Western Hemisphere
- Average income is less than $300/year
- 85% of the people practice some sort of Voodoo worship
- 300 children a day are orphaned
