Aaron Gillespie recently traveled to Haiti with Samaritan's Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association to see the work of the organizations and the progress in rebuilding from last year's earthquake. During the three-day trip, Gillespie visited schools and orphanages in the small villages of Titanyen and Simonette as well as the Cite Soleil Cholera Treatment Center. Aaron traveled with his wife Jamie, who has a desire for missions.
"Haiti is beautiful and full of life," said Gillespie. "It is also mismanaged and they need of a lot of help. Jesus said that we should go everywhere and help people. Let's go to Haiti as lovers of Christ and pour Him out on that great country in a tangible way. For so long I expected Haiti to be something terrible like the media displays, but in the face of it all there is hope and life there, and it is waiting to be rediscovered and taken back in Jesus' name."
