MPC Responses to Haiti Earthquake
For nearly two decades, Madison Park Church of God (MPC) has invested in life-giving and lifechanging missions work in Haiti. One of three nations to which MPC provides focused missions resources—India and Russia, the other two— Haiti is home to 233 Church of God congregations with an estimated 32,000 members.
MPC’s focused, long-term mission strategy in Haiti involves a partnership with Church of God Ministries, our church affiliated offices and Mission Haiti, Midwest, Inc. (Mission Haiti), a free-standing, but Church of God affiliated mission agency that works closes with Church of God Ministries and the national Church of God leader in Haiti Phyllis Newby.
Mission Haiti, founded in 1998 by MPC-goer Dr. Mark Fulton and his wife, Kathy, provides health services, through work camp clinics and the operation of an outpatient clinic and hospital adjacent to an orphanage on a Church of God ministry campus at St. Ard. Miraculously, the hospital, located just 20 miles from the epicenter of the quake, escaped serious destruction.
Furthermore, a diesel powered generator, recently donated by I-Power of Anderson, Indiana, is operative and being used to pump clean well water—a scarce necessity at this critical relief phase. But in order to keep the generator operating, Mission Haiti, will need to purchase more diesel fuel, which is available on the island, but at premium price, in wake of the earthquake. Prescription medications, available only through medical professional, are also a great need.
