Rose's Story... Continued from Last Year
Thankful that through CIDM, God has changed her desperation into victory!
Orphaned at age 12 and left responsible for her two younger siblings, Rose believed the only way to financial survival was to become a prostitute, a common practice in Haiti. Ashamed and alone, she continued this empty path, but hope came at age 15.
While attending our required bible class at her public high school taught by CIDM teacher Brisso, she learned the love and hope in Jesus Christ, and gave her life to Christ. She eagerly began to learn more about God's forgiveness and wonderful plan for her life at our New Life Discipleship bible study. When she shared her difficult situation with our staff, CIDM immediately stepped out in faith and began to financially aide her, freeing her of her dire situation.
We shared her story in our September 2016 Newsletter. After reading about her, a young American couples' hearts were moved with compassion and committed to provide monthly for Rose and her siblings.
Now all three attend school, eat a healthy diet and are in love with Jesus. Rose was baptized in March 2017 at our CIDM baptism, and praises God for His unwavering love, emotional healing and freedom from a desperate lifestyle.

We currently employ 2 qualified bible teachers who teach at 7 high schools, reaching over 1,100 students. The students' changed behavior is causing principals to invite us to teach in more schools in 2017-18. We need an additional bible teacher to fulfill the principals' requests.
