Mission Trips
We are temporally suspending mission trips due to the current unrest in Haiti.
We are happy to host any Christian team looking for a way to follow the Great Commission. We can use your talents evangelizing, offering medical services, building, or any other skills. Consider making a week long trip to Haiti to use your time and talents. You are never too old, too young or lacking in skills or talents for this life changing experience.
If you would like to be a part of a team or organize one, please contact us or for more information. Your trip to Haiti will offer you many opportunities to use your talents. We will tailor our needs with your skills.
OPPORTUNITIES:

Our cost is one of the lowest in Haiti - $498.00. Contact Hope in the Light for the cost of a week's stay. Discounts for groups of 11-15. Groups larger than 15 are difficult to service and provide for properly. Please prepay at least four weeks prior to your departure date. This will cover lodging, island transportation and 2 meals per day.
TRAVEL AND MONEY:
A passport is needed - plan on 6 to 8 weeks to obtain one from the time you apply.
Make and pay your own airline reservations into Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
Hope in the Light will provide transportation from the airport and while on the island.
Cash for souvenirs and other personal items is more dependable than credit cards or traveler's checks.

The airlines allow two 50-pound bags per person, and 1 carry-on. We suggest you use one suitcase for your own clothes and personal items, and use the other to bring ministry or medical supplies.
