I have heard from the Haiti Reunion in Greenland that they gave me the green light on completing this project. For those interested I will give here a little report here to what is going on.
1. As you can see on this blog-- my part has been trying to brush up on my Haiti history and come up with more illustrations.
2. I have been phoning different individuals to bring new areas and congregations up to date
A. Ouanaminthe-- Shandon Koehn
B. Villa -- Milton Jantz
C. Oriani-- I need to contact Anthony Penner/ Clinton Holdemon
D. Savon Mouton--I need to contact Russell Toews
E. Preville-- I need something on this area. Visited Wes Koehn's here in 2007
I also contacted
E. Thomassique--Mark Stoll who gave me a hint that there is a booklet written on this congregation and Hinche.
F. Hinche--Gregg Wenger helped write that booklet and so I contacted him to see if he had a copy.
G. Lovingt Area--Talked to Raymond Withers and he has submitted material in the past and is willing to give more if possible before going back to Haiti.
3.If any one knows of the history of these or other congregations--please let me know. I need more on the West End --Jeremie Area. Really to be honest-- if you have anything on your particular area it would be appreciated.
4. The book will most likely have these parts:
A. History of Haiti
B. Early History of the Church in Haiti
C. The Histories of Different Congregations and Areas
D. Missionary Experiences
F. CSI and CPS Work and Experiences
G. Various other Humanitarian and Medical projects , etc.
5. I need Experiences of CSI and CPS boys-- a record of their special projects and highlights with the purpose to inform and enthuse potential volunteers. Tell how you felt called to serve, a highlight or two, advise, whatever you are led to share. Essay size letters can be written in a hour or two, Sunday afternoon.
6. I am thinking of different ways to get people to contribute, If I get enough leads I will even send individuals letters with questions to answer and go from there if necessary. I will warn you I have a tendancy to be persistant and am not scared to phone half the Yearbook if that is what it takes.
7. I just know that a book on Haiti is overdue and is important for dedicated workers of the future to learn from past inspirations, successes, and faliures. To know the spirit of the book I recommend Irvy Goossens Go and Tell. Reading that book has only reconfirmed convictions I have had troubles expressing in words in the past. Thank-You
