La Gourme

La Gourme

This church was planted by pastor Lunot Joseph in 1998. Most people in the area are farmers and salesmen. There are around 2000 living in the community. The church had an 80 sheet tin roof, but there was a hurricane that swept Haiti and destroyed the roof. Pastor Degenord Fabien now uses his house for the church meetings. We would like to buy a piece of land to construct the church and a school for the children.

If you would like to partner with this church, or any of GVCM's Haitian churches, please visit the Church Partnership page or contact us for more information.

History of Churches in the Savanette Area

The Savanette area has a population of about 2000, most of whom do small trades or grow coffee, bananas and beans. There are approximately 80 members attending the church. We started a bible study in Ballarona, in the Dominican Republic, on April 3, 1994. From that cluster of people, the Dominican congregation grew to 104. This date has been adopted as our anniversary. We always invite all the churches and pastors to come and celebrate with us. From that little seed, seven more churches were born in different areas of the district:

1. Mare-Crabe with Pastor Ilorire Flouril
2. Dos-Parc with Pastor Berlinot Louissant
3. LaGourme with Pastor Dagenord Fabien
4. Bois-Pin-Gonne with Pastor Wilson Orelien
5. Dos-Baptiste with Pastor Merinord Naurescat
6. Ravines-Palmes with Pastor Thesalus Silvain
7. La-Haye with Pastor Celin Riche
8. Savanette bourg with Pastor Celin Riche

We have one little school in our church in Roche-Grann, and another school in La-Haye. This is not a good situation, since we have no infrastructure to promote a quality work for the Lord in those places. We use what we have, but it is a constant fight. We bought several properties and we have re-roofed different churches with tin roofing. We have a lot of preachers, elders, evangelists, and groups (adult, young people) throughout all the churches that have the enthusiasm to preach the word to the unsaved. We need just a bit of spiritual and financial encouragements to create a solid base for this ministry. We praise the Lord for being faithful to us, and He will be faithful to whoever helps this ministry move forward. We hold services twice weekly in our churches. On Tuesday and Friday we have prayer meeting and bible study, and regular services Sunday morning and evening.

Objectives:

We would like to grow spiritually through Bible study and in communion with the Lord. We hope to send someone from each church a music school to study music so that they can come back and train young people in their respective churches. We also hope to send some of the dedicated young people to Bible College so that can come back to start new churches.
