Lagonave Trip

13. July 2010 by admin.

We had a great trip to the island of Lagonave with Barefoot Community Church.  The church is anticipating a partnership with the three Grace Mission churches on the island, so this was an exploratory trip.  We flew over to the island from Port au Prince, on MAF (Missionary Aviation Fellowship).  See video link- http://vimeo.com/13214553.  Barefoot is planning to take a team to Lagonave in October to do some evangelism and work out details of what would be involved in a partnership.  This trip will be the final determination for the church’s involvement in a partnership.

The partnership idea, as we are looking at it now, is an old idea with some new features.  The church partnership program is intended to provide for some of the needs of the Haitian churches, but with a greater emphasis on outreach to be more effective in reaching people with the Gospel.  Physical needs of the churches is certainly a part of it, but we recognize that the spiritual needs are even greater.  Barefoot Church has a serious burden for the unsaved and wants their partnership to be an evangelism tool, more than anything else.  This is the model I hope we can duplicate in all our Haitian fields.  Please pray with us as we work to that end.
