The Wesleyan Church and its predecessors have had a missionary presence in Haiti since the late 1940’s.

Presently there are 106 churches and 70 schools grouped into 4 districts throughout the country.

The Wesleyan Church of Haiti has a fairly autonomous organizational structure but struggles because of the depressed economic environment.

The Wesleyan Hospital on the island of La Gonave celebrated 50 years of ministry in the summer of 2009. The hospital is a critical component of our ministry to the people of Haiti. The nursing staff has been trained by missionary nurses from North America.

Collaboration with WISH (West Indies Self Help) provides electricity and clean water to the hospital and mission compound. WISH also provides clean water to the town of Anse-a-Galet and affords enterprise development opportunities to the people.

Several missionary families are ministering in Haiti full-time. There are several other missionaries who are still in the support-raising process here in the States. Often college students devote a semester to on-site education. Other individuals dedicate a year or two of service to help meet critical needs.

Missions Ministry Teams from across the United States and Canada often invest a week or two in ministry along side the missionaries and nationals. Team member skills span the spectrum from medical and dental professionals to mechanical and construction expertise to willing hands and feet that assist wherever needed.
