In late July, of 2024, Elder Samuel Shafer was approached by Missionary Almonard with the opportunity to visit his church and orphanage, and teach to the Domican people. Elder John Leverkuhn and his son was able to accompany Elder Shafer and his sons. The first place they went was a Baptist church, in La Romana, where Elder Almonard and another Pastor had been teaching Bible  studies. Nobody in this church had received the Holy Ghost, or been baptized in Jesus Name. Elder Shafer began to preach Jesus Name baptism and the infilling of the Holy Ghost.  Around 30 people crowded in and around this small building to hear the "American Missionary", as they called him. The presence of the Holy Ghost filled the small room and 5 people were converted and filled with the Holy Ghost, including the Pastor and a few deacons of the church. The next day the headquarters conference started. Elder Shafer and Elder Leverkuhn taught seminars and preached multiple services. In every service and teaching session the Holy Ghost moved and many people received the Holy Ghost. Many people crowded in the building in every service to hear the "American Missionaries" preach and teach. They had many visitors every service and over 40 people received the Holy Ghost. During this week, God placed a very strong burden on the heart of Elder Shafer to assist Elder Almonard in any way he could in reaching the people of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Now there is a American Organization dedicated to the needs of these people. You can help too. With prayers, donations of clothing, and finances, you can be a blessing to this mission work.
