There are two trips being planned this summer. See below for more information.

Thank you for joining us for Band Night and the Silent Auction! We raised over $5,000 to go towards our upcoming mission trips!

MEETING SCHEDULED FOR SUNDAY, MAY 19 AT 11:30 IN THE YOUTH ROOM

The next mission trip to the DR is scheduled for June 22 -29, 2024. Stop by the table in the hallway on March 3 or March 10 to learn more about this mission trip from members of the January trip. Not ready to pack your bags just yet...come and learn about other opportunities to make a significant impact without leaving home. These include the Water Purification Project and the Baby Feeding Program where you can sponsor a child in need. For questions, contact Dena.

This trip is organized by our partner - Mission of Hope International (MOHI). A short-term mission trip offers a unique opportunity for individuals to combine travel with a sense of purpose. Engaging in volunteer work during these trips can foster spiritual growth by providing firsthand experiences in different cultures, fostering empathy, and encouraging a broader worldview. Additionally, those being served often benefit from tangible assistance and emotional support, creating a mutually enriching exchange between the travelers and the local community.

Mission of Hope International was founded in March 2000 by Pastor Lexidan Edmé and his wife, Renée, in the village of Thozin, Grand-Goâve, Haiti. The mission of MOHI was to positively impact the population spiritually, physically and emotionally.
