Dear Mission-Haiti Family,

As we close out the month of December, and a year like no other, we wanted to take a moment to say thank you~ for your passion for what we do, for your endless thoughts and prayers, and for loving us in ways we cannot even count. Mission-Haiti is a ministry run on Christ, passion, and dedication, and you have helped us remember our "why". You have helped us to notice the subtle ways, big and small, that God shows us why He’s called us to continually serve and love on this community. Our lives are made better by each of you, and our mission is stretched so much farther than it could ever be without you. This year especially, we have seen some miraculous ways in which our family on both sides of the sea have come together. Here are 20 great things from 2020:
