It started with answering a message from a friend on Facebook… On May 1st, I’m going to Haiti with a great team of 10 from the Grace Network of Churches. The primary focus of the mission trip will be to man a medical clinic and support doctors that are going to be attending to countless victims still needing medical care.
Much of my function will be to work with the victims of the devastating earthquake and work as a layman counselor to help with post incident stress and debriefing. I’ll be spending some time with their church’s leadership to help them learn how to train others and continue working with their church members.
I have a great deal of trepidation due to the great need. I’ve had one team meeting and a group conference call with the person who went before me. Those who have already went have relayed significant pain and need on behalf of the victims. We’ll be taking medical supplies with us as well.
I need your prayers and even your support. I’m asking for financial donations to help offset the cost, but also to help with the work. Any funds that are donated and not used will be given to the team for additional supplies. If you’re interested in contributing, you can do so on the widget below by credit card. If you wish to help and prefer to do so by check, please make it out to Grace Community Church of Caroline and put “Haiti Missions” in the memo field. You can mail it to 224 Village Court, Ruther Glen, VA 22546.
Thank you in advance for your support and your prayers!
