RMI’s first team to the Dominican Republic (DR) came from southern New Jersey. They were ready to be Jesus’ hands and feet. Our ministry in the DR will be different from that in Haiti. We have the opportunity to work with Dominicans and Haitians, and their needs are also different.  This first team’s goal was to visit both kinds […]

The admissions process has begun for the inaugural class of the Ezra Institute.  One of RMI’s Impact Points is education.  For years we have had the Hope for Kidz Program to address that point.  And for years we have wanted to expand our educational footprint to include those Hope for Kids (HFKz) graduates who have gone […]

It is our pleasure to announce that we have a new RMI Team Member. We want to welcome Rob Thompson! It’s great to welcome a new team member who already means so much to each of us and to RMI. As a bonus, he won’t need a lot of training. Rob is joining RMI as […]
