Haiti 2 Years Ago
Do you remember where you were 2 years ago today? If you were in Haiti, you’d never forget. Over 300,000 people lost their lives on this day in the Haiti’s worst earthquake. But tragedy often helps people and organizations raise to new heights. After the earthquake, I had the opportunity to start serving with Mission of Hope in Haiti. It’s been remarkable to see the organization that has emerged from the crisis. In the last 12 months, here is how they’ve made an impact in Haiti:
– Seen 540 people come to faith through their church outside Port au Prince
– Introduced 13 Voodoo priests to a relationship with Jesus (and help them start a new career)
– Delivered over 15 million meals to school children and their families through a partnership with Convoy of Hope
– Provided a quality Christian Education to over 3,000 students
– Opened two new Mission of Hope Campuses
– Worked with over 100 other churches to spread the hope of Jesus to every man, woman and child in Haiti
