Christmas Offering
We have an exciting opportunity to bring hope and health to Haiti.
World Hope International is completing a blood bank facility at L’Hôpital Wesleyen de La Gônave, a project that will literally save lives during emergencies, surgeries, and childbirth.
Through the years, missionaries from across our district, including our own Dr. Valerie Lewis, have served at the hospital, impacting the physical and spiritual health of countless individuals. And now we can be a part of this next step.
Our goal is to raise $12,500.00 by the end of the year and have it matched by other churches and individuals to help complete the project. To give, simply indicate “blood bank” or “Christmas offering”.
Christmas Family Social:
Thank you to all who made the Christmas family events at both campuses a success this past week.
