18/2/10 - Indonesia - Testimony
Australian Missionaries to Indonesia, Colin and Kim Crago sent this recent testimony Java.
FTH partnered with the Colin Crago to render relief in the aftermath of a May 2006 earthquake in their area.
This is a work that is still bearing fruit today.
"One of the Group, Ibu Tumiyem, a very poor lady who has been the recipient of various food distribution programmes, now a stalwart of the Church & prospering somewhat better, went to visit her parents.
When she got there they told her about the lady next door who was suffering from some sort of bone disese. She was a Christian & had prayed about her situation.
Ibu Tumiyem offered to pray for her & did. Immediately the pain ceased. There was a Muslim lady present who had a badly sore knee. Ibu Tumiyem prayed for her & she received healing straight away. Since then the Muslim lady has come to Ibu Tumiyem requesting healing for her son which Jesus honoured."

12/2/10 - Haiti Disaster Relief - Stefan's Field Report
"Yesterday morning at dawn, we met up with one of our containers at the border & guided it in to our base at "Love-A-Child".
Met with Pastor Eddy Francois in Carrefour; this area of Port au Prince was devastated, 80% of the homes either destroyed or damaged beyond repair. Pastor Eddy's home was wrecked, he had 31 people living in his house and thankfully all survived. He is now in a tent along with 2,500 or so people living in the yard lot behind his house.
Our relief coordinator, Pastor Fernando Fleming of the Dominican Republic, started food & water distribution to these families the week after the earthquake. It was good to finally meet Eddy and many of the families living under nothing more than low-lying bedsheets strung together on sticks & poles.
We had a VERY orderly distribution of a week supply of rice & beans to each of the families... 2,500 people... it was a blessing to see the vision of FTH in action once again, feeding the hungry, strengthening the church, and reaching the lost.
Many of the families living in this makeshift tent city are members of Eddy's congregation, but the vast majority are not. They have seen God's love in action.
President Preval declared a three day time of fasting, prayer, and singing led by the Christian Church for the nation. The voodoo / witchcraft folks got really upset at that... and so did the few Muslims... but President Preval stood his ground.
May this be a historic turning time for the nation of Haiti, as it was for Nineveh in the days of Jonah. A nation can be saved in a day."

FTH International Director
