As a church family here is what we are doing now:

 

1. The first team to Haiti has been formed. They will be departing on February 19th and return February 27th.  Please continue to pray for the team leader and members as they prepare for their experience in Haiti- Pray for strength, endurance, patience, and  that God's love would resonate from all they do & they would have an opportunity to share His message of hope.
