Juniot’s trip with CRU
First and foremost, I want to thank CRU for its mission throughout the world in evangelizing the word of Christ and especially by organizing annual regional or international meetings in different countries. A special thank you to Annette and Laura and to all the people who contributed to the success of my very first travel to an another country with CRU-Haiti. And I was able to travel to share the love of God with thousands of people from different nations in Brazil. An experience that none of us who have been there will not be able to forget. Above all, I never imagined going to Brazil in the near future. It's something that has left all my family and friends in amazement. Thank you to each one of you. To participate in this conference, I did not have my passport yet, and once I had it, I said to God, I have no means available but if it is your will, I will register by faith and I know you'll help me to find some money to pay the fees. And it was done according to God's plan. Before leaving Haiti, I asked God to help me to be more open to the people I will meet during my trip, to put aside my shyness and allow me to be open to people so I will be able to talk to them. Through the various sessions we have attended, I have learned that it is important to be guided by God because, more often, we want God to follow us in our plans instead of following God's plan for us. Like the story of Jonah,I came to understand that as soon as God wants you for a mission, no matter what you want to do, the plan of God will not change and you will end up going there. On Copacabana beach, I felt free to talk to people, I did not feel fear anymore. In my meetings with my group "missionary community" we were all ready to share our experiences and we liked it. Back in Haiti, our work is continuing through "CRU-Haiti" in universities to talk to students about Jesus' love. It has been a pleasure to meet all these people and to live new experiences by sharing our Christian faith with the same ideology of making disciples for Christ. I thank you all and pray that God will continue to bless you more so you will always have the chance to invest in someone as you have invested in me. And thank you again for being able to count on you for the years to come. With all my heart, thank you. Sincerely, Juniot Jean Baptiste
