Short Term Mission Opportunities
The primary reason we go to the mission field is to honor our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, as we fulfilled His great Commission.
We want the world to know the unsearshable riches of Christ, and
to help all see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from
the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all
things through Jesus Christ.
We also believe God has a plan and a purpose for you while attending
one of our mission trips. For I know the plans that I have for
you, “ says the Lord. “ They are plans for good not
for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
Why should you go?
Because the church has a mandate during this present age that
is to go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father the Son and of the Holly Spirit.
Matthew 28:19
We are eyewitnesses of Christ's Majesty and Power.
Yes, we are eye witnesses of the many miracles that were initiated
by the power of the Word of God, lives have been restored, miracles
happen just as Jesus promises, according to Mark16:17.
We are blessed to witness the hunger and the high level of faith
the believers in Haiti place in Lord Jesus, as a result God blesses
us with new fire, new passion, new desire to press on.
The Lord's desire is for you to draw near to
him as He draws near to you (Psalm 73:28). We are thankful
you’re considering taking a short-term trip with us. Our
prayers for you is that you let go and let God use you to bring
life to a lost and dying world.

Testimonies!
| My trip to Haiti with Gary in October was definitely an
experience that God has used in my life already. I came home
with a deep gratitude for God's blessings on our country,
which I believe is because of the foundation that America
was founded on, one that glorified Him. I pray that our hearts
will be open to His greatness towards us all and quicken us
to share His love to the body of Christ in Haiti and all over
the world. I saw how Haiti is in desperate need of His light
- we have taken His light for granted because most of us have
always lived in a culture where His light is shining. We have
had no idea how dark the darkness is. You just don't know
until you go somewhere like Haiti and see it first hand. We
should all stop and truly offer sincere thanks to God for
sending His great light into the world - Jesus - and thank
Him that He lives in us and shines through us into the dark
places like Haiti. Thank you Gary, for allowing me to go with
you and I pray for your ministry as it reaches into the darkness.
We Love you, Carl & Angie! |
Dear Pastor Gary,
My experience in Haiti was a very positive one. I truly believe
the work you, the pastors, and teachers at the compound are
doing are in the Lord’s favor. I was truly impressed
with Pastor Renel’s heart, hard work, and servant’s
attitude that spread through all the other workers and teachers
at the compound. His love for the Lord Jesus and his enthusiastic,
yet humble leadership is contagious. Seeing all the kids and
playing with them was great fun! The teenage boys would come
hang out with us every evening at bedtime and enjoyed talking
and cutting upJ I enjoyed visiting the neighbors around the
outside of the compound. And I truly enjoyed worshiping at
Pastor Reginald’s church in town and worshipping at
the compound. Pastor Gary, thank you for embracing this work
of the Lord and may you always continue in His work and favor.
Love, Nathan Mixon |
Pastor Gary, “My work with Bethel Mission Outreach
in Haiti was both physically and spiritually challenging –
moving me far out of my ‘comfort zone’! Fifteen
days there taught me new meanings to the words ‘teamwork’,
‘hard work’, and ‘network’. Haitian
pastors, teachers, and co-workers were so willing to serve
the Lord and one another, putting deep faith into practice
in all they do.
This trip was AWESOME!!” -David Brooks |
