Learning and Serving


Like many other mission organizations, Sous Espwa receives visiting teams from our network of supporting churches. In the last month, we have received a team from Calvary and Calvin CRC (Holland, MI), Peace Community Church (Frankfort, IL), and Calvary CRC (Holland, MI). We believe that the experience of a visiting team should include both serving and learning. Often, the service part of a visit is working on a building project side by side with Haitians who are themselves invested in the success of the project. Haitians and North Americans enjoy getting to know each other and sharing their love of Christ with one another. But visiting teams to Haiti also spend roughly half of their time learning about Haitian culture and the Haitian church. We visit Sous Espwa ministries, Haitian churches, and sites of cultural interest. Without a doubt, the most rewarding experience for visiting teams is making friends among their Haitian counterparts. If you and/or your church are interested in organizing a visiting team, please contact us at segaarking@yahoo.com.
