In case you missed it I leave tomorrow for Santo Domingo, Domincan Republic. There I will meet several other folks and our team of six will travel to the Haiti/DR border where we will help at a church/hospital that is overrun with refugees.
I found out I would be making the trip on Sunday. I am proud to be part of a community (with Adventures in Missions – AIM) that responds to a rising need with such quickness and urgency.
All day I’ve been getting emails about preparations for tomorrow. Some were for me and the team in particular. Many were for the AIM community at large. For the week that we are gone our friends and fellow Disciples here at home have organized a 24/7 prayer watch. Every minute we are on foreign soil, we will be covered in prayer. Our brothers and sisters will be interceding on our behalf, imploring the Holy Spirit to work with us and through us.
I would love if you would join my community in prayer. While we are away we will be serving the refugees we meet and striving to establish contacts and opportunities for future short-term teams to be sent by AIM to meet the needs of the people whose lives have been ravaged by the earthquake in Haiti.
