GPC Summer Mission Team

This summer's Grace Point Church Haiti Mission Team is now making preparations to travel to Haiti in late July. We have 14 team members who will be doing a variety of ministries very near the epicenter of the January 12 earthquake. Over the past couple of months, Joy House has been able to build several transitional houses in the area with the funds donated to date. Our team will have the opportunity to construct more of these structures providing we have the funds available to do so.

In addition, we will be teaching basic hygiene classes due to the vast numbers of people now living in very confined conditions. Tent cities have sprung up everywhere and with no infrastructure, the potential for the rampant spread of disease is eminent. We will be conducting bible schools for children, teaching adult bible studies, providing sewing classes, doing hut-to-hut (tent-to-tent) evangelism, and have opportunities to participate in evangelistic services in the evenings.

Please pray for this team as we prepare for the task God has placed before us.
