Heaven Rejoices

Post-Quake Outpouring: Since January, more than 100,000 Haitians have become Christians.
(Chrisitianity Today)
Remember to pray for the people of Haiti, who are experiencing a cholera outbreak and Hurricane Tomas, in addition to the continuing devastation of January's earthquake.

Luis Palau and his son, Andrew Palau, just completed 2 evangelistic Festivals in Chile.  Out of 145,000 people reached through live events, more than 13,000 made a documented decision for Christ.

At the Santiago Festival, they were joined by rescued miner Jose Henriquez, widely known as the "pastor" and spiritual leader among the miners. He shared his testimony and reported that during the 69-day ordeal 22 of the 33 miners prayed to surrender to Jesus Christ.  He commented privately, "I do hope they will follow through and walk with Christ for life."

The Palaus also had the opportunity to meet with Chilean president Sebastian Pinera. "They discussed several serious topics during their meeting, including the importance of public officials recognizing God in their statements and speeches. Palau pointed out the promise made by God in the Bible, “Those who honor me I will honor.”"
