First Gustav, then Hanna.

Haiti, the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere, has experienced another round of death and destruction. With over 8000 people still homeless after hurricane Gustav, Tropical Storm Hanna added to the misery by ripping up trees, flooding streets and houses, and killing at least 20 people along the coastal regions. 

For the last 65 years, CrossWorld missionaries have served the Haitian people by bringing them the Gospel and meeting them in their everyday needs. Now, a national church movement of 160 churches continues to bring light and hope to their own people.

The decision to pursue missions is made.

CrossWorld. The application is in. And now it's time to find what it means to go out and make disciples in a culture other than your own.

Candidate Orientation does just that. Over a two week period, men and women go through training and assessment that contributes to spiritual formation for what it takes to serve for the long haul.

Financial details, communications help, and training in developing support are all added into the mix. And in addition to grounding in CrossWorld's ethos of "we worship, we love, we go," CO helps to form relationships with others who are at the same place at the same time. The hope - preparation for a lifetime of ministry, wherever God calls.

Want to get involved? Join us as we pray for God's work in the lives and hearts of men and women joining our mission team. Check out our opportunities on the field. Or consider a gift of support to fund Candidate Orientation for the coming year.
