Heartstrings in Haiti

About the Book

Haiti is a small country, with many people. It is a beautiful country, with scenic mountains, trees that grow year-round, and bougainvillea blooming with pink and white flowers.

It is a poor country, with needy and destitute people who do not always know where their next meal is coming from—or whether there will be a meal at all! And each one has a soul that will never die. Most of all, then, they need the gospel. Who will tell them?

Heartstrings in Haiti tells of one man’s efforts to help the people in Haiti—not just by handing out food or money, but by bettering their circumstances and doing something to make their lives easier. Raymond and Vera Withers of Detroit, Texas, have spent years in Haiti working for the good of mankind. Read about their colorful and varied experiences, including an eyewitness account of the major 2010 earthquake that shook the country and its aftermath.
