An amazing
opportunity to partner with a Haitian church

Partner with a Haitian churchOne of the main objectives for our
trip to Haiti last month
was to meet with local pastors, build connections
and explore the possibility of coordinating an effort for American churches to
partner with them. (My pictures of one such meeting here,
here
and here.)
Thankfully, that objective is now coming to fruition due to Adventures In
Missions’s leadership in Haiti.

There’s a couple reasons why I’m very excited about the opportunity for
American churches to partner with churches in Haiti.

  • Compassion International, World Vision, and many other organizations have
    already proven that these kinds of partnerships can be mutually edifying for the
    body of Christ, both for churches in America and in other countries.
  • Relief efforts could go to a lot of different organizations in Haiti, but
    this is an opportunity for relief to go through the body of Christ in Haiti,
    directly to the people from people who are already known and trusted in their
    communities.
  • Every single pastor I met in Haiti is a rock-solid spiritual leader. In
    fact, this
    man
    is probably the wisest pastor I’ve ever met. Just sitting near him,
    listening to him speak and pray left all of us on the team with a sense of awe.
    These men are tremendous spiritual leaders who are well respected.
  • Through Adventures In Missions, you can visit your Haitian partnership
    church, both in the short-term and in the future.
  • The need is so great in Haiti right now, especially as the rainy season is
    upon them with very few shelters. Our support can help the Haitian churches rise
    up and be both a spiritual and physical shelter in their communities.
  • The average Haitian lives on an average of $400/year, so small amounts of
    money can make a very significant impact. That means American churches of any
    size, of any financial status, can make a huge difference.
