"Thank You Jesus..." in My Inbox

Part of my (Kate's ) work this month included creating this social media post, from a photo I took on the streets of Cap-Haitien, combined with a comment from a viewer, Robenson, on 4VEH's YouTube channel. It's a simple but profound comment, in essence the response we're hoping for from every person who listens, watches, reads our content from 4VEH.



Every day, comments from our YouTube channel flood my inbox, often an 'Amen', or an expression, a prayer, of faith, like this from Robenson. It hit me that this is a great privilege - to be a witness to God's work in people's lives.

If only everything else in my inbox was this good! What God-stories are flooding your inbox today?

"I'll listen to 4VEH till the day I die!"

Powerful testimony from listener Kersius



At the end of December, we interviewed 4VEH listener Kersius Jean, an elderly man confined to a wheelchair. Kersius was among an incredible group of listeners who call themselves" Super-Branché" meaning super-connected to 4VEH. They listen to practically every program, all day every day. At their own initiative, they meet together regularly - for fellowship, and to pray for and encourage us at 4VEH. They give financially, sacrificially, too.

When I asked Kersius if he had any prayer requests, he said:  


"Whether I'm walking or in this wheelchair, pray for me that I'll stay firm in the faith in Jesus."
"I've been listening to 4VEH for 53 years! 
"And I'll listen to 4VEH till the day I die". 

He made an impact on us...on me. His passion for Jesus, his love for 4VEH. 

Three days after our interview, on 1st January 2018, Kersius died, passing from this life into eternal life with his Savior Jesus. And I'm looking forward to seeing him again there.

As we've been watching the video recording...directing the editing...he is still having an impact on me. His enthusiasm is contagious. 


His testimony is being shared with our Haitian audiences from today (watch the interview - in Creole - on 4VEH's YouTube channel here: 




and I'll use his story for our supporter newsletters and other communications, too. We'll get the video subtitled in English so check back later if your Creole is a bit rusty :)



I pray his passion for Jesus will impact many people - in his death as in his life. We at 4VEH are privileged to be a part of Kersius' story. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to get this photo too.
