During our first ABCO mission trip to Haiti we spent considerable time evaluating whether a continuing Oregon Baptist presence there would be of help to our sisters and brothers suffering the consequences of the earthquake that recently struck their island. We have become convinced that we have much to offer and are planning a series of return trips, the first being this coming November. Please read the description below and let us know if you sense a call to participate.
Haiti Mission Trip (November 1-8, 2010) Mission Trip Purpose: To serve our Haitian sisters and brothers as Christ’s hands and feet.
What will we be doing? Whatever is needed by them at that time in their rebuilding process. We will also be bringing items that will possibly aid them in cottage industries and in their worship. Why will we go? We will continue forging the partnership between us and the Haitian people. Will it be comfortable? No; and you will be required to have many inoculations to protect your health, as well as doctor’s permission to be able to go. Will your life be changed? Absolutely yes if you go with an open heart and a willingness to see God in new manners. Who can go? This trip will be limited to less than 12 participants. We will accept applications through September 1, 2010, and make selections by September 8 after prayerful consideration. If selected, you will then be asked to fill out a more extensive application and references for International Ministries Volunteers in Mission for final acceptance. How much will this cost: At least $1150 for airfare, insurance, meals, and lodging, plus Passport fees, inoculation costs, and any other funds you desire to bring for incidentals.
