ONE GOD.
ONE LORD.
ONE SPIRIT.
ONE COMMUNITY.
UCI's response to the current crisis in Haiti:
Food Relief--to the refugees from Port-au-Prince, the widows and orphans, and the people who are struggling to find food.
Education--we only want to provide relief for a short time and our goal is always towards development. During these difficult times, Christian education at all levels is the hope for a transformed community and country. We place an emphasis on providing quality education from preschool to university to develop Christian leaders
Church--God is at work; He never abandons us. We see Him working in these times and even see revival occurring. UCI wants to teach the Word to all who God puts in our path and at every opportunity.

Who We Are
JeanJean and Kristie Mompremier founded United Christians International (UCI) in 2003 and returned to JeanJean’s birthplace in 2005. UCI’s primary goal has always been to teach the Word of God. As a result, over 30 witch doctors have turned to Christ, churches have been planted in far-reaching communities, and communities have transformed from despair to hope.
Teaching. Equipping. Uniting.
Helping people know and experience God by teaching, equipping, and uniting.
Teaching
The Words of God
Our goal is to provide quality Christian education to our rural areas, with a big emphasis on providing a safe and encouraging learning environment, resources, and hiring certified teachers with a heart for the Lord.
Equipping
National Leaders
UCI continues to grow and meet the spiritual, medical, educational, and agricultural needs of the community, while touching the lives of Haitians through sharing, studying, and living out the Gospel.
Uniting
Christians Around the World
God has used UCI to not only unite Christians in the surrounding 9 villages in Caiman, but throughout the world through short-term missions teams and service projects.
Ephesians 4:3-6
"Work hard to live together as one by the help of the Holy Spirit. Then there will be peace. There is one body and one Spirit. There is one hope in which you were called. There is one Lord and one faith and one baptism. There is one God. He is the Father of us all. He is over us all. He is the One working through us all. He is the One living in us all."
UCI Spotlight
Amazing!!! I love the song “I Thank God”. There is a part that says, ‘Hell lost another one, I am free’ and this is what these pictures are showing. There has been REVIVAL in Haiti! In our mountain church plant, Pastor Luckson has been preaching the Word and people are responding to God's truth. In March, 54 people were baptized and that included 9 former witchdoctors. Now there are 23 waiting to be baptized soon. Shown here are Pastor Luckson and his congregation burning away the trappings of a lost soul and singing ‘O what a [spiritual] war/army, we have the weapons, you can’t touch us!’ Another witch doctor has come running to Christ.
God is our banner (Ex 17:15) and we run to Him! He gives us spiritual weapons (Eph 6:10-20) and nothing can touch/hurt us (Luke 10:19).
Praise God for His greatness today!
University Student Spotlight
UCCC graduates are changing the face of Haiti!
While working at the Hinche hospital for his year of social medicine, Dr. Isaac Brizard took care of many prisoners from all over Haiti. These prisoners had many illnesses, but most were connected to malnourishment. They also had many stories to tell about the dismal conditions of the prison system and the lack of good judicial services available to them. Dr. Isaac took it upon himself to take Matthew 25:34-40 to heart and visit the “least of these” in the Hinche prison. He found 530 prisoners enduring very inhumane conditions. All prisoners rely on family to bring them food to eat, but many prisoners are transferred to prisons far away from home due to overcrowding in the facilities nearest to them. Therefore, there are many cases of malnourishment which just compounds that diseases and illnesses that are contracted. Dr. Isaac will be leading a health care effort at the prison. He and the other medical personnel willing to lend their time and expertise will not be paid. Their reward will be given in heaven for obeying God’s mandate. UCI will be partnering with Dr. Isaac by providing food and clothes and Bibles as much as possible. Our theology students will also make visits to the prisoners to provide spiritual counsel and bring hope.
Thank you, God, for touching Dr. Isaac’s heart to visit the prisoners and look for ways to spread your Kingdom behind those earthly bars. May these captives be freed from spiritual bondage.
Matthew 25: 43-45 (MSG)
I was hungry and you gave me no meal,
I was thirsty and you gave me no drink,
I was homeless and you gave me no bed,
I was shivering and you gave me no clothes,
Sick and in prison, and you never visited.’
“Then those ‘goats’ are going to say, ‘Master, what are you talking about? When did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or homeless or shivering or sick or in prison and didn’t help?’
“He will answer them, ‘I’m telling the solemn truth: Whenever you failed to do one of these things to someone who was being overlooked or ignored, that was me—you failed to do it to me.’
Dr. Isaac continues his ministry in the prison of Hinche. Because people sent vitamins, food, T-shirts. women’s hygiene kits, wonderful Biblical tracts, and money, he was able to bless many. Prisons in Haiti are very crowded with little resources. The desperation is evident. Pray that the men and women there will find Hope in Jesus.
