But today we are heartbroken

This is Kelly.

He used to be an inmate at CERMICOL. When he was released about 2 years ago, he started coming to church faithfully. The church came around him, loved him, helped him start a small business.

He was even part of the podcast with WORLD last year.

Then about 3 months ago, he didn't come to church. Weeks passed. No one could find him. No one heard from him.

Yesterday we received word that he was executed about 3 months ago. Why? Because of his past life. Because people were suspicious of him because of who he had been, not because of who he had become.

But by all accounts, he had left that old life behind. He was a new creation in Christ.

Kelly’s story was one of the “wins” we had seen in Haiti. We had shared so much joy being part of his journey.

But today we are heartbroken. 💔
