Bahamas
Our Focus
The natural beauty of the Bahamas was temporarily diminished by the force of Hurricane Dorian. The islands have started to rebuild and reopen; residents are returning as well. With the population restored, we’ve partnered with a local church whose pastor has a vision for reaching children and young adults for Christ. Engaging the community in creative ways in order to point them to the HOPE of salvation is of primary importance to continue the rebuilding process.
