Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

Through a partnership with Lettieri Construction we have created a new model for missions based construction projects. We send a project manager and several skilled professionals to lay the foundation for, plan and oversee projects. The project manager returns every six to eight weeks to ensure the job is progressing on schedule and brought to completion by local workers, professionals, and skilled craftsmen. This method equips people in the land we are trying to serve with skills that allow them to provide for their families and it also gives them a sense of dignity and pride for the nationals involved.Being trained and entrusted infuses the laborers with a sense of accomplishment, ownership and a responsibility for ongoing stewardship of what has been constructed to be a house of mercy. We use these community centers to distribute food, clothing and firewood year round.

Activity 3

We also do crisis counseling and intervention for drug and alcohol addictions and behavioral problems. Crisis counseling is not a long term endeavor and the usual duration is one to four months. Crisis counseling provides the support, guidance and education necessary to formulate a treatment plan for those in extremely difficult situations. The counseling may involve placement in drug rehabilitation centers, coordinating long-term counseling, or admissions to medical facilities for ongoing treatment.
