Haiti Update / Second Story on Clinic

See what is happening in Haiti and with the Habitat for Children ministries. There is a lot of good work being done, along with many challenges and struggles that they continue to face.

We are excited that the 2nd story of the Clinic and Care center are almost completed.

Haiti is filled with many stories of struggle and resilience as well. Below are some recent updates about what is currently happening around our Clinic.

The people are standing with jugs of water, patiently waiting for their turn at the hand pump. Unfortunately, there is simply not enough capacity to meet the water demand.

The mobile clinic is already seeing patients this morning, showing the urgent need for healthcare in the community. Many families depend on this important service, so it’s essential to provide proper support for timely and effective care.

How to Support:

  • Donate medical supplies and equipment

  • Push for policies that support mobile healthcare

  • Volunteer medical or logistical help

  • Work with local groups to reach more people

We need your help for Dorsaint Wilbens
He crashed on a motorcycle and was released from the hospital because there was no available room for him to stay.

Did you know almost 1 in 5 Haitians can’t get good medical care? Good care means more than just seeing a doctor—it means having someone who listens and understands you. Everyone deserves kind and helpful healthcare. Let’s come together to push for better medical services! Your voice counts. Share your thoughts or mention a healthcare hero below!

[Sunday] Distinct Mission - Missio Dei Part 4

The divine mission transcends human distinctions, revealing a grace that embraces all and thoughtfully extends love to every neighbor.

The divine mission transcends human distinctions, revealing a grace that embraces all and thoughtfully extends love to every neighbor.

Sunday Bulletin July 20th

Questions for the Week: Missio Dei - Distinct Mission

  1. The early church struggled with what rules Gentile Christians needed to follow, especially around circumcision. Can we think of any "unspoken rules" or expectations we sometimes place on people today?

  2. Read Acts 15:1-21.  Peter and James ultimately decided it was about "not troubling" the Gentiles and prioritizing the good of their neighbor. In what ways can we actively apply this idea of "not troubling" others or considering our neighbor's perspective in our daily interactions, even when we feel we have personal freedom in a situation?

  3. Can you recall a time when you (or someone you know) had to adjust your "freedom" or practices out of consideration for someone else's beliefs or sensitivities? What was that experience like?

  4. How can we, as a community, foster an environment where both grace and thoughtful consideration for others' consciences are prioritized?

[Sunday] Zeal In The Way - Missio Dei Part 4

While our fervent passions can inadvertently get in the way, God's relentless love empowers us to join His expansive mission, extending grace to all.

While our fervent passions can inadvertently get in the way, God's relentless love empowers us to join His expansive mission, extending grace to all.

Sunday Bulletin July 13th

Questions for the Week: Missio Dei - Zeal In The Way

  1. Can you think of a time when you were really zealous or passionate about something, and discuss whether that zeal was helpful or unhelpful in that situation?

  2. Read Acts 11 (specifically focus on the verses around verse 17) and Peter saying, "who was I that I could stand in God's way?" Can you think of situations where you might be, or have been, unintentionally standing in God's way because of your own ideas or traditions, even if you thought we were doing the right thing?

  3. Paul's transformation was key in the sermon (Philippians 3:4-6). What do we learn from his journey about how our understanding of God and faith can change and grow over time, and what does that mean for us?

  4. The sermon ended by reminding us that "Christians are little Christs" and are called to bring God's love to unexpected people.  Where have you seen unexpected people come into the family of faith?

[Sunday] July 6 - Who is the Beloved? - Christ in the Psalms

LOVE is at the core of Jesus’ PURPOSE, His WORDS, His DEEDS, His DEATH, His RESURRECTION, His ASCENSION, and His sending the HOLY SPIRIT. Today we explore the most important thing we need to know about His SERVANT LOVE.

The Book of Psalms has become one of the most overlooked books in the Bible.  The psalms not only helped Jesus grow into being the Son of God, they also reveal Christ to us in helpful ways.  We will consider several psalms as we try to put on the mind of Christ.

Thought for the Week: RESURRECTION EYES: Roots And Shoots: The Tap Root

Something strange is happening — 

There is a great silence on earth today, a great silence, and stillness.  

The whole earth keeps silent because the King is asleep.  

The earth trembled and is still because God has fallen asleep in the flesh and he has raised up all who have slept ever since the world began.  God has died in the flesh and the underworld trembles with fear.  

--- from an ancient Holy Saturday Homily
