Haiti Relief Effort

In addition to providing financial support to the Haiti relief effort, you can also bring the following items to be shipped to Haiti through our local mission partner MedMission.  MedMission has partnered with First Priority-Global in order to maximize the effectiveness of our relief efforts.  We will be working primarily with established mission organizations in Haiti, the Ebenezer Mission, Bethel Mission Outreach, and Canaan Orphanage.  These ministries have been in existence for over 15 years and have facilities that can distribute life-sustaining foods while showing the love of Christ to all they serve.  Each ministry has medical clinics that are in dire need of replenishment as well, making our efforts even more critical. We will also work with other Christian missions as our partnership grows in this devastated country.

Many of you have asked how you can help with the relief effort for Haiti.  We need volunteers to work in the MedMission warehouse on Saturdays from 9am until 4pm. Volunteers will sort, box, and inventory medical supplies.  Please contact Jim Tucker via email (medmission@gmail.com) if you will be coming.  We look forward to seeing you Saturdays!
