MVI missionary Ed Lockett began his ministry with regular trips to Haiti in 1986. He partnered with many local pastors, visiting schools to hand out school supplies and share about Jesus. He would take pictures of the kids and have them printed, passing them out to giddy children on his return. For many, it was their only photo. In 2004, Ed visited some friends in Honduras and began the same kind of ministry visiting schools. “The Lord is blessing the work in Honduras and things continue growing and expanding rapidly,” he shares. Haiti has become more unstable with gang activity and kidnappings, but the ministry there continues. “We have an infrastructure of Haitians that keep things going as long as I get the funds to them, which I do every month,” he says. “I was able to get into Haiti last year for a few weeks, and hopefully will be able to return next year.” Whether he is in Haiti or Honduras, his heart is always torn that he can’t visit more schools more often. “It hurts me to say goodbye so much to so many and so often. Even if it’s just see you later, still, I wish I could be in more than one place at the same time.”
