Our mission:

To see the gospel of Jesus Christ brought to La Gonave which truly is the only hope for the people.

To provide an education to the saints at La Gonave that they may examine the scriptures for themselves, and lay a solid foundation for training the next generation of church leaders. That those saints not called to be pastors, elders, or deacons have a solid Christian education. A foundation from which they may become leaders in their communities, and better, more productive citizens of La Gonave in particular, and Haiti at large.

Our hope and prayer is that through this ministry children will be taught God’s Word and will become literate individuals who can lead and teach those that come after them from generation to generation and the “hopeless” children whom Matt wept over will no longer be without hope, but rather, as promised in the Book of Jeremiah, they will know that the Lord has, “plans for their welfare and not for calamity to give them a future and a hope.” We know there is hope for La Gonave and for Haiti.
Reaching the Children of La Gonave Through Education
How we arrived at this place...

“On Thursday, May 4, 2006 Matthew Baugh, missionary to Haiti, was traveling to meet a group of Haitian pastors. As he neared the fishing village of Luly a truck pulled into his lane of traffic and hit his motorcycle head on. Matt died in his wife’s arms before they could reach a medical facility.”   READ MORE....About_Us.htmlAbout_Us.htmlshapeimage_3_link_0shapeimage_3_link_1
