Church Updates
This year our church has experienced significant growth in discipleship and outreach efforts. We thank God for his faithful guidance and look forward with faith to what he will continue to do within our church congregation.
• We have held open air meetings, sharing the gospel with people in the streets
• Several church members are participating in a pastoral care ministry, visiting homes and offering prayer and support to families and the elderly
• A new men’s Bible study group now meets weekly, fostering fellowship and spiritual growth among the men in our congregation. Other Bible study groups continue to thrive, reflecting the spirit of the Bereans who “searched the scriptures daily” (Acts 7:11)
• The youth ministry has become increasingly active and engaged. In their commitment to being “doers of the Word”, they have successfully established a small boutique that sells construction materials and food items. The proceeds are being used to support the elderly within the church and in the community.
With Grateful Hearts
Our ministry in Haiti would not be possible without God's provision and the faithful support of our prayer warriors, partners, donors, and volunteers. Thank you for believing in our vision,and investing in lives that are being transformed for today and for eternity. As we look to the future, we trust God to continue the good work he has begun and invite you to journey with us into the coming year. From the bottom of our hearts. Thank You!
"Give Thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever." - Psalm 107:1
How You Can Help
Please pray for the people of Haiti. The continuing gang violence has caused thousands to flee from their homes and the socio-political instability has devasting consequences for the Haitian people. We ask that you fervently pray for our ministry and those we serve. Pray for God to intervene with His mighty hand to bring a new Godly government and stability to Haiti. Nothing is impossible with God.
"I am the Lord the God of all mankind, is anything too hard for me?" -Jeremiah 32:27

An Inspiring Story of a Life Transformed
Belando Joseph began his education at the Philadelphia Christian School of Fontaine. In the 4th grade, he faced difficult circumstances and dropped out of school, which eventually led him to a destructive lifestyle, including involvement with a local group of bandits. But God’s love is relentless. Just as the shepherd in Luke 15:4 leaves the ninety-nine to find the one lost sheep, God spoke to his heart and drew him back into the fold. Through the loving support and guidance of Pastor Jude, Belando was introduced to Christ, and his life began to change. Surrendering his heart to God’s calling, he returned to school, embracing the opportunity for a fresh start. Today, Berlando is in 8th grade at Philadelphia school and is planning for a future in mechanics Belando is deeply grateful for the transforming ministry of PCMP and the care and love shown to him by Pastor Jude. We are thankful for God's amazing grace shown to a young boy who now has hope for a better future. His life serves as a testimony to God's love and transforming power, and that with God, all things are possible.
School Updates
With great anticipation among our students and staff, the new school year began in October. As students and teachers returned to their classrooms, you could feel their excitement to start another school year. This year, we have 43 dedicated teachers and 326 eager students who are ready to learn, develop new skills, foster meaningful connections, and continue their educational journey. We look forward to an academic year that will inspire our students to grow, achieve academic success, and develop spiritually, mentally, and physically.
Thanks to the generous donations from Creekside Church in Urbandale, Iowa, PCMP recently purchased a new three-wheel motorcycle. We are grateful for this blessing, which has been a tremendous asset for our teachers. The 3-wheeler has enabled teachers to save money on daily transportation costs, allowing them to allocate more of their income toward family needs. Traveling together in the three-wheeler has fostered a strong sense of camaraderie among the teachers. Their smiles say it all! An unexpected but welcome benefit is that everyone arrives at school on time!! Thank you, Creekside church for supporting this important need!
