It has been quite a story to try and keep up with the last couple weeks because things seem to be happening almost faster then what I can keep up with but I'll try my best to tell it.
Eval is young man I would guess around 30 years old, he lives right beside the trail about half way to church. Actually right beside the community well that we dug. Grandpa Harold hired him along time ago already to take care of his horse. But sadly Eval is not a Christian. He often has big parties at his place and also drink a lot, (A LOT) besides. That has finally caught up with him. He is very sick. Internal bleeding, seems to be in liver and kidney failure and probably much more. So we have been sending him out for tests to the Seventh Day Adventist hospital in Port Au Prince. Today he has another set of test to do to determine what the problem is. (We will do updates on his health on the clinic blog in the near future)
About two weeks ago he came with Deacon Noaz to talk to Steve, Noaz had told him he needed Jesus in his heart, and that he shouldn't die without Jesus. He got upset for some reason. Anyway this past Friday he came home from the hospital, and we right away noticed a difference in the way he was speaking, he seemed to be under conviction.
On Sunday afternoon we were driving back from a youth meeting at church and his wife came out and told us he wants to get converted. Some of us drove up there and the pastors grilled him, he told us he doesn't want to get converted cause he's sick, or because he's scared to die. He told us he's promised others he will one day come to church and follow Jesus, and in the hospital God has been working in his heart, and he knows he's a sinner and needs to repent. So we had the joyful experience to lead him through to Jesus right there.
Pray much for him as he does tests and starts treatment of some kind. Also much more that he grows in the knowledge of Jesus, and that he would rise up if God gives him longer to live, to serve and and spread the Gospel. Also for us to be there to teach and disciple him as he grows up to be a man in the faith.
