Wonderful Testimonies and Miracles


Just wanted to update you on some wonderful testimonies and miracles here at our site. Also, please read the note below about sending us packages via airmail.

The Acid That God Did Not Allow To Burn
Annelisa, a missionary at our site, was checking her family’s 12 volt battery connected to their solar panels (her face was about 1 foot away), when the battery suddenly exploded and acid flew onto her body, her face and on her eyes. It burned a man’s sneakers. The acid burned a hole through Annelisa’s mom’s pants. Annelisa felt burning sensations all over her face and arms, BUT there was not a single burn on her from the acid, nor was there a scratch from the debris which projected from the exploding battery. God perfectly preserved her skin, her eyes and her clothes. Everyone began to pray and worship. While worshipping with her family, the sensations in her body went away. Shortly after, the ringing sound in her ear also stopped.

The Snake That Couldn’t Bite
While Foster, one of the workers/missionaries at our site, was working on the veranda for the orphan girl’s house, a snake came from under a rock and tried to strike Him. Instead of the snake biting his leg, it simply hit his leg with its mouth. He looked to see what hit his leg, and then quickly jumped away. He used the tool in his hand to kill it. The Lord preserved Foster from a snake bite that could have cost him his leg or even his life.

Tire and Bike Tube Blow Out
I rode my motorbike to Utimuile village last Friday to do a drama and minister with the rest of our missionary team. About 100 meters from the site I heard a big “pop!”. My front tire tube had suddenly popped (and there was a rip in the seam of the front tire). The bike went right and left, back and forth, but the Lord kept me upright. After stopping the bike, I moved it to the side of the road by the school, and joined the rest of the team. The tire was temporarily fixed, so I could go to the city and buy a new tire and tube.

New Bicycles
Besides Gazani, there was another person, Foster, whom I desired to bless with a bike. Foster works at the center and loves to evangelize (he’s in the video we made last November). Well, the Lord provided bicycles for both people. I’ll send pictures of them with their new bicycles once we purchase them. Thank you for blessing these two young men with a valuable tool to evangelize and advance the kingdom.

We've received about 3 packages from family in the states via the USPS flat rate Priority Mail boxes. The ones we received are the $37 Flat Rate Domestic/International boxes. We received them about 3 weeks after they were mailed from the U.S. Check your local post office for more information on different sizes and prices of flat rate boxes that you can mail to us. The $37 ones that we received have a weight limit of up to 20 pounds when used internationally. We found that the rates can be a little cheaper if you print your own postage online at usps.com/postage online and drop it off at or have it picked up by your local post office. Please note that when mailing any new or packaged items, you need to remove all pricing and packaging before mailing it to us. If you leave it on, we may end up having to pay high customs fees. Please email us for a list of suggested items to send to us. Note: We love Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (or anything Reese's)! Feel free to include them in any package sent to us! Thanks!

Love Tyren and Tiffany Haynes
