“As you go, preach this message: The kingdom of heaven is near. Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give." Matthew 10:7 Mike and Pam Plasier: Mission Haiti unofficially began in 1995 when Pam Plasier began her first of many mission trips to Haiti. Soon her husband Mike took his first trip to Haiti and together they founded Mission Haiti as a non-profit organization in 2005. They have a heart to provide a home for the orphans, an education for the children, compassion for the poor and to make disciples so as to change uncountable lives. Mike and Pam are the co-founders of Mission Haiti. They were married in 1990. When their 2 sons, Craig and Andrew, were 3 and 5 years of age, they moved to Haiti to open an orphanage for a ministry out of Illinois. While in Haiti, they adopted a 10 year old girl named Jasmine. They are currently living stateside and traveling back and forth leading teams to minister to the Haitians.  Mike & Pam Plasier
