Many times we can feel overwhelmed with all the needs we see around us in the world. We look down at our meager resources and feel like such an inadequate gesture could not be of any significant value. There is too much to do, too much ignorance, too much poverty, too much suffering. However, the truth is that our efforts, no matter how seemingly small, do make a difference. In the slums and streets of Haiti, thousands of homeless children make up...
Aid for Haiti Remote medical ministry exists to reach out into the most untouched and needy areas in Haiti. Through contacts in the local church we have developed a network of unreached areas we minister to regularly. We strive to bring high quality medical care into areas most other organizations refuse to go in an effort to minister to those who would otherwise never see care in their lifetime. Imagine you are on a medical team in Haiti when you...
The Lord blessed us with a wonderful week of training for pastors, elders, and evangelical teachers. We were invited about a year ago to conduct a week of Bible study in this area by a brother from Minnesota who had family living in this region. AFH made two investigative trips there last fall and this spring to pray and discern if it was God’s will that we go. Over 200 men showed a strong interest and a place was found to hold the week long Bible...
Disaster. Dreadful. Disturbing. Deadly. These were all terms used in describing the 7.0 earthquake that struck Haiti just over a year ago on January 12th, 2010. The epicenter located 10 miles southwest of the capital, Port-au-Prince, was in such proximity to the capital that it caused widespread devastation and brought all commerce to a standstill. When the dust settled and the dead were counted, 1 in 40 Haitians died and 2 out of every 9 Haitians were...

Sharing the love of Christ with the people of Haiti
through compassionate health care, spiritual ministry and training for service
Aid for Haiti is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that exists to share the love of Christ with the people of Haiti through compassionate health care, spiritual ministry and training for service. We seek out the unreached in Haiti. We staff mobile remote clinics who see thousands of Haitians per week. We help train local pastors and elders in spiritual truth to build into their communities. We provide disaster relief, coordinating total care for a town of 150,000 people near the epicenter of the 2010 earthquake. We treat micronutrient diseases, causing blindness and mental retardation in the mountains of Haiti. We do all things in an effort to demonstrate the love of Christ to the people of Haiti.
When you consider the ministry of Jesus, what picture comes to your mind? The fearless Messiah faithfully proclaiming the gospel of His kingdom to Israel? Or do you think about the blind, lame, deaf, mute, tormented and possessed whom He healed? What about His intimate teaching to His own twelve followers, the future leaders of the Church?
In Matthew 9:35, we read “Jesus was going through all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and every kind of sickness.” So you see, Jesus did all of these things – He taught the religious leaders about God’s truth, He proclaimed the gospel of the kingdom to the poor and He healed all kinds of disease. This is verse sums up our mission.
