Missions
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”
Isaiah 6:8
Our initial response to God’s plea in 2007 was to send an exploratory team to Haiti in early May ’07. The goal was to determine who, what and where we are to invest ourselves in this extremely challenged country. Answers were clearly given in the form of key people, strategic places and critical projects for us to pursue in the months/years ahead. We are committed to serve as God’s hands and heart to Haitians – one life, one trip and one project at a time. Will you echo Isaiah’s response to God’s request, “Here am I. Send me!”?
The team just returned from their August 2012 work trip. See highlights here--more details to come!
Check out the video from our 2007 trip.
