At the beginning of this month, Mission of Hope
hosted Watermark Church from Dallas, TX. Watermark has become a Partner
of Hope with Church of Hope. Before departing for Haiti, they spent
many months preparing and praying for their trip. They came with the
agenda of teaching and leading a Marriage Conference. During their time
of preparation, they emailed a few of the married staff at Church of Hope to
see which topics would be most applicable. As it turns out, married
couples in Haiti struggle with the same things married couples struggle with in
the United States. Many of the attendees could relate with stories and
testimonies of the teachers and couples from Watermark.
As a newlywed, I was looking forward to
attending the conference with Ruben, my husband of only 10½ months. As we
are learning to live life together and be involved in ministry together, we
know we have a lot to learn. The team members from Watermark were all so
genuine; it was a blessing to sit under their teaching during the conference.
Over the two days, there were many laughs, tears and times of discussion.

| The amazing team members from Watermark! |
It is so wonderful to see how God is
partnering and bringing together the American Church and the Haitian
Church. And it is such blessing to a part of an organization that is
ministering to the whole person. Mission of Hope does an amazing job at
being a place where people of all colors and cultures can come together to
worship, pray, teach and learn about the one true God.
