        Peters from Nashville Metro Ministry in Haiti Christmas 2005
  In 
        1997, a bright eyed 17 year old named Philip Peters left the farm of Indiana 
        for a 3 week mission trip to Jamaica with Teen Mania. The teams hit the 
        mission field during the day and spent the evenings at Caribbean Christ 
        For the Nations Institute in Montego Bay, Jamaica.
 While there he met a Haitian student named Jean Gerald 
        Lafleur. As Philip went back to finish secondary school and attend university 
        their friendship stayed in tact. He would send CDs and letters; and as 
        the world progressed to internet the communication continued as it was 
        a Kingdom Partnership.   
         
          |  | In July 2004 Philip really felt stirred 
              to bring a group of 20 year olds to visit and assist Pastor in ministry. 
              “Every time I spoke with someone there just seemed to be a 
              need to do mission work and with Pastor Lafleur’s promotion 
              of the 365 beaches in Antigua; it wasn't hard to pull a team together” 
              says Philip. |   
          | I understood that Pastor has a special 
            heart for Haiti, his homeland. Although many people discouraged me 
            from going there, God was constantly calling me to take a trip to 
            Jacmel Haiti in 2005. Having obeyed the voice of God, I am now hooked 
            on the country and plan to lead more teams to Jacmel. |

          |  | Working with Pastor Lafleur, Elsa and Jeremiah, 
              I see God and I see how everything that I do can and will affect 
              the Kingdom. Read more  |
