GVCM is a network of 70 rural churches in Haiti. Our ministry was intentionally developed around the local churches because we believe the local church, not the American non-profit, was ordained by God to transform the world. We equip the local churches in our network with financial support to operate, provide new buildings when possible, and invest spiritually in the leadership. We hold 3-4 pastor conferences a year with over 90 pastors in attendance. This allows them to develop a deeper understanding of God’s Word that they can share with their congregation. The influence of our local churches is immense. We have seen voodoo on the decline in the rural areas where we serve, and several voodoo priests have surrendered their lives to Jesus.
GVCM is impacting rural communities in Haiti through practical projects. A critical need in Haiti is affordable health care. Our medical clinic just outside our Mirebalais campus treats up to 1,000 patients a month. The clinic has an all-Haitian staff and provides quality medical care, pharmacy, and lab services. GVCM is also dedicated to providing clean water. We have drilled and maintain over 20 community wells in safe, public places. We usually drill wells on the property of one of our churches, so that when people come to get clean water, they may also experience the living water. Children are healthier and safer because of clean water.
GVCM knows the importance of impacting the next generation in Haiti. We support children through our 24 Christian schools and orphanage that is home to 130 children. We provide over 7,000 students with an education so they can realize their economic and intellectual potential. We also teach them the Word of God and empower them to read it for themselves. The children at our orphanage vary in age from toddlers to young adults and we strive to give them a better future than they could have imagined. We recently opened a vocational school at our orphanage to train our older students in carpentry and sewing. This will equip them with skills for future success.
