The third and last blog on Haiti this week is going to talk about a long term strategy for rebuilding Haiti. Specifically, what our churches can do in the long term to help rebuild the country and share God's amazing love with the Haitian people.
Something I've been thinking about is organizing the church into teams of people with a specific skills mix and sending them down in shifts to help with rebuilding projects. It would take a great amount of planning and coordination, but could really help when a full-scale rebuild is underway.
First, what will the Haitians need in the long term?
Architects
New infrastructure
Consultants
Construction Workers
Carpenters
Teachers
Long Term food supply.
Counseling
Temporary workers in proffesional jobs where people were lost
and the list goes on.
Does anybody in your church fit this list? How about your list?
The resources to help rebuild this country are right here, under our very noses.
I'm curious. What can your leadership team alone supply in the way of expertise or skill? I'd be interested to hear from you.
Training Tomorrow's Leaders Today,
Matt
