Please Join In Prayer

Would you please join us in praying for our dear friend, Danny Pye? Danny is an American Missionary serving in Jacmel, Haiti. Danny was unjustly arrested and put in prison 126 days ago and he remains there today. Danny and his wife Leann, along with their daughter, run a children's home for 22 Haitian youth. He is a regarded as a father by so many children and is about to add to that number. Leann is due with their second child in a few short weeks. Danny is being held on erroneous charges and has not received a trial or sentence. In fact, less than 25% of all Haitian inmates have recieved a trial. Having to be apart from his family for so long is unjust, potentially having to miss the birth of his son is so devastating, and surviving in inhumane, cramped conditions is unbearable.


Please pray with us for the speady release of Danny from prison.

"Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow." Isaiah 1:17

  1. How blessed is Danny, whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, who made heaven and earth, the sea and all that is in them; who keeps faith forever;
    who executes justice for the oppressed;
    how gives food to the hungry.
    The LORD sets the prisoners free.
    Psalm 146:5-7

  2. My prayers are with you, Thompsons! I was a pastor in an EFCA church near Galveston. Now working with Child Evangelism Fellowship in Houston!

    Also praying for Danny. May God sustain Him with His perfect peace, be glorified as He was when Apostle Paul was imprisoned, and may he be released today so he can rejoin his family!

    Would love to keep in touch with you.
