As many have heard, on August 14th, Haiti experienced an earthquake in its southeastern region. This earthquake caused significant damage and has lead to a heartbreaking amount of injuries and deaths. Our long-time partner; Mission of Hope has already deployed teams to assess the extent of damage and to determine what are the most immediate needs. At this time travel to Haiti is not considered safe, but the needs are great, so Mission of Hope has put together a list that will allow us to help from home.

One Saturday morning a month, we create opportunities for groups, families, couples, individuals, and students to go out into our local community to be the hands and feet of Christ. We affectionately call these “Go Days.”

We believe ministry should happen at the speed of life - and sometimes that means reacting to disasters when they occur. We believe that we have been called to respond when disaster strikes, and so our Change Your World team keeps an eye out for places where we can assist and partner with others in the aftermath of a disaster.
