Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
We thank God for the response of God’s people to the Haitian people after the devastating earthquake of 2010. God used your sacrifices of time and treasure to bring immediate relief to people throughout the nation of Haiti. As the Church in Haiti was under girded by the generous gifts of God’s people in their time of crisis, so it is the purpose of project LEVANJIL to under gird the Church in Haiti with the truth of the glorious gospel that alone can provide holistic help to address ongoing systemic problems. Traditional mission strategy in Haiti emphasizes ongoing aid. We believe that, though this is well-intentioned, it is damaging to the individual, counter-productive to the society, contrary to the gospel and has cultivated a people who view themselves as vulnerable and dependent. Levanjil, a ministry of Berean Baptist Church in Livonia, Michigan has partnered with The Evangelical Baptist Mission in the South of Haiti (MEBSH), who oversee the ministry of approximately 500 churches, in order to strive together to make disciples dependent on Jesus Christ alone. Please consider this brochure your invitation to join the project! Sincerely, Pierre Maceno Levanjil Ministry Director |
