What to Expect...

While we do not yet know what our Haiti mission work site will be, we can share some of the possibilities. Previous work has been completed on a children's home, numerous schools and medical clinics, churches and communities.

Work can range from the rebuilding of walls to the removal of debris, roof-mending and wall-painting to landscaping and plumbing. More details of what UMVIM has completed through December 2010 can be found at: http://new.gbgm-umc.org/media/volunteerdocs/haitiworksiteupdate.pdf

Perhaps most important though are those things not found within the piles of lumber and debris, but within the heart. Each work site utilizes both UMVIM volunteers and Haitian workers. With each trip, more relationships are built and joy is shared among this truly trying situation. Each time we show up, we not only help to build walls but also relationships in hope and in Christ.
