Cory asked John Pierre yesterday to stop in Cap Haitian and ask about the arrival of the Creole health books as he knew that 10,000+ books takes up a lot of space. John Pierre called Cory late morning to ask if he could come to Cap as the books were to clear customs that day and later they learned that the warehouse is full.
So Cory and 2 guys went into Cap. Thankfully the one mission who ordered 2,000 books could come get their boxes of books. Most of the books are being stored in a warehouse just outside of Cap while Cory brought a truck load to Fauche.
Each box holds 52 books. Cory now plans to deliver a truck load of books for LaGonave and Port the week after next. The books look great-almost identical to the first ones we had printed but cheaper so that we can sell the books here for $1 each.
Join us in prayer that these books can reach the farthest corners of Haiti, touching people with the Lord's love. We pray that the books can help to lift some of the physical suffering so prevalent in Haiti and maybe prevent at least a few deaths.
Special thank you to Wesleyan Publishing House, Wesleyan Women International, a family from the River Church, Shunem Ministries and others for helping make the second printing happen.
Thank you to ECHO's bookstore for carrying the health book for folks in the USA who want a copy or two.

This must be extremely fulfilling! May God bless those books: may they arrive in the hands of people who can use them. May they alleviate suffering, and bring health, and light, and hope!
Happy Mothers Day!
Thanks Susan. Made every hair I pulled out worth it! Interesting to see what the Lord did when I said I'd be willing to write a 'little health booklet if it would help 10 people'
So amazing to see the boxes and know they are full of your book. I'm so thankful you listened to that small voice telling you it was needed!
