May, 2014

Greetings from Cross Roads Lutheran Parish!
In a few short weeks, a small but determined group from Cross Roads Lutheran Parish will be leaving for Les Cayes, Haiti. A few weeks after that, a second group of missionaries will be heading to Alabama to work on disaster recovery with Habitat for Humanity....More information on that later.

This blog is the place to learn more about the preparations for the trip, the experiences of those who are going, and of course, the wonderful people who live and work in Haiti and Alabama.

Already,  all four of the Congregations have collected flip flops, undies, and tooth paste and brushes to be distributed. In addition people have been making pillow case dresses that will be given to the girls at the Consolation Center and the Village of Hope. And a fundraiser using envelopes is well under way.

Please keep in prayer: the missionaries, the ministry, and the people of Haiti and Cross Roads Lutheran Parish prepares to the Mission Trip to Haiti!

Blessings on the Journey!
Elayne Werges, Diaconal Minister
