Proclaiming the Word

So Much More Than A Feeding Program

Many times people see our work as just a feeding program to those small bodies who are so hungry.  But I see it as so much more.

In Her Own Words, One Volunteer’s Story from the 2018 Mission Trip

When I told some of my friends and family that I was considering going on a mission trip to Haiti I often got a response like this….”I would never go to Haiti because the countries problems are created by a crooked government.” Many felt that the people just expected other countries to take care of […]

More than any other entity in the world, the global Church relies on volunteers to accomplish its objectives…sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ throughout God’s Kingdom. So to all of you volunteers, and as a leader of […]
