Volunteers and visitors from afar

Bud and Dolly journeyed from far away Michigan to help us out here at the RMI office! (Actually they are Kim Rose’s parents!! They left the snowy north to visit Kim and Barb in the sun.) They came in to help stuff, seal and prepare the year end receipts. Where would we be without our volunteers?! Charlotte Zegers and Tom and Shirley Crick are local volunteers who have been immensely helpful!! They stuff, seal and prepare special mailings, label theBridge and get it ready to mail, collate and assemble RMI’s Orientation Training manuals. There is quite a bit of behind the scenes work that is essential to the running of the RMI office. Thank you all so much for your willingness to give your time and effort – what a service (and always done with a smile)!! Friends of RMI, Jim & Ruth Hill, of Michigan, stopped by for a

An Immediate, yet Eternal Community Wide Investment…

Estero United Methodist Church has made a huge impact, not only for today, but for years to come in their Sister Church partnership community, Cherette, Haiti. The immediate and eternal return on this investment is simply immeasurable. It’s truly Hope for Haiti. Several years ago, a team of leaders, movers and shakers arrived in Haiti for their first Sister Church visit with Reciprocal Ministries International and made some observations. Their Sister Church was making every effort possible to build and have a school. Yet, the Haitian church found that it was exceedingly difficult to do all that they dreamed with so few resources. They had made progress personally, but their dreams were still far off in the uncertain distant future. There were “rough beginnings”, but much was yet to be done. Along came their brothers and sisters at Estero United Methodist Church. Led by God, with heart, with compassion, with

A new Ride for a Haitian Pastor…

A great option to encourage and equip a Haitian pastor is to provide a motorcycle for his church. The Haitians pastors are best able to minister to their communities when they are mobile. In the picture you see, Pastor Guilluame is sitting on his brand new Honda 125 motorcycle. Pastor Guillaume is the pastor in Astruc, the Sister Church to The Orchard EFC in Arlington Heights, IL. Pastor Guillaume will now be able to much more efficiently and quickly visit Cayes for his ongoing Biblical seminary training, visit his people throughout the Astruc community, and visit the multiple other M.E.B.S.H. churches he oversees throughout the Astruc district as M.E.B.S.H. District Pastor. A motorcycle is a ministry tool that expands the ministry horizons toward more effective ministry and service to the Haitian people.
