New website layout
Mission International has recently put together a new website layout which brings together all of our web content from one easy source. Our main domain http://www.mission-international.org/ is the site to go to and from there you will find an easy format to reach the places you need to find.
Wherever you see the logo below is a link back to the main site, e.g at the top on the right hand column of this page.
Feed back:
We would love to hear your feedback on what you find and any glitches you notice of areas where you feel a different approach would improve things, we cant promise an immediate change but we will take ideas forward to the next review of the site.

Numerous visitors:
From 5pm -6pm visitors to the main event, an united Easter celebration, came to view the dispalys as well as after the main event was over. Mission International saw over 100 vistors to the display stand where copies of Kabanda's story were presented t each visitor along with other items of literature. The iterest was inspiring, people wanted to know more. Some well known firends and many new faces as well were keen to find out abolut teams and projects. We hope that many will follow up on their visit to our display and we would welcome those who would like to know more and who want to get involved in mission themselves.

News from Haiti:
Good News from Haiti!
Today (Sunday 17th January 2010) we heard news that Pastor Rolex in Haiti is fine and well. We are now in communication with him to discuss what we can do to help in the process of rebuilding his precious country. Mission International will be gathering support to help support orphaned children, put in place income generating projects for affected families and to take steps to support those who are in need in all sorts of ways.
Please help us help them!
If you can help in any way it will be so much appreciated by those who are in great need. The big disaster relief organisations will do their work of dealing with the aftermath of the earthquake but Mission International has also a role to play in the longer term helping in the rebuilding process. If you can financially support this effort in any way at all please send your support to us using the options on the right hand column of this page.
More News!
We will post further news here when we have it, in the mean time please pray for the people of Haiti, in particular for the churches, many of whom are very poor and dont have the resources to respond to the many who are in need.

The Hope Centre kids had a very special Christmas this year. The sponsors from the UK donated a pot of money which was to provide a Christmas party for the children in the centre. Pastor Leonard however saw that many children in the surrounding homes are so poor that they were going to miss out on Christmas while the Hope Centre kids were having a party. It was agreed that an invitation would be extended to some of the poorest children to come along to the Hope Centre Christmas party, in the end 114 children attended in total, 72 village children came along and of course the Hope Centre kids too. Everyone had a wonderful day, a very special Christmas Day indeed.Tuesday 22 December 2009
The Month of 'Movember' has been added to the fund-raising calendar, well, at least for 2009 since in Movember 2009 a charity fund-raiser was organised by friends of David Henderson to raise some support for the work of Mission International, the group of lads (for obvious reasons) grew facial hair below their noses in keeping with the international fund-raising events (see the following link) http://uk.movember.com/. In all the group raised £75 which will be used to support the poor in the developing world.
Movember Madmen!

Seasons Greetings from Mission International
The work that Mission International carries out amongst the world's poorest people in never so much brought into focus than it is at this time of year. The Christmas message, of a wonderful Saviour who came to earth to reconcile mankind to God and who called men to follow him in serving the world, is still fully true today. The support we receive from generous hearted people around the country is welcome here in Mission International's office but so much more welcome to those who receive support in terms of a project, or just a meal on Christmas Day. (Please visit our various projects from this page to see how God has blessed so many during the year, the blogroll is on the right hand column of this page).
Thank you!
We all, volunteers and recipients alike, want to say a huge thank you to those who have selflessly supported those in need, who have gone on a team or who have prayed for us. We need you to know that what we do would not have been possible had you not joined with us in this way.
May God bless, you for your kindness, hard work and commitment to the work, we pray that this Christmas will be the best ever for you as you experience the Saviour on the Saviour's Day.
