How to help

About four years ago, Katie took her first mission trip. Before she embarked on this journey... she had to ask her husband's permission... She would be flying to another country. Prior to her trip, members of our church were able to participate by sponsoring her trip. We provided supplies for the orphanage and church. As they prepared to leave, our entire church was able to pray for the team.

Returning from her trip...Katie was transformed. She was able to experience God's faithfulness in a fresh ways. As a mature Christian, she is not one to sit at home in her rocking chair. (Katie is a grandmother in her seventies.) I continue to be amazed at her courage and dedication. Her excitement is contagious... she talked to our Sunday School class, women's groups, and pre school classes. Then, our Sunday School class decided to financially assist the church.

Since then, members of our church have continued to be a part of the church and orphanage in Haiti. Tonight, our church is praying about how God would have us help.
