Serving local community is a vital part of learning and living the ways of Jesus together. We encourage you (and your SENT group if you are a part of one) to pick one local element in which to give yourself away, and then we encourage you to invite a neighbor or co-worker to join you as you serve.

Giving yourself away globally is also a vital part of learning and living the ways of Jesus together. We encourage you (and your SENT group if you are a part of one) to pick one global element in which to serve, and then we encourage you to invite family and friends to give themselves away with you.

Here are some of Westpoint's global partners:

HAITI
One of the families in our church family actually leads a ministry to the families of Massey, Haiti. Grain d’Espoir pour Haiti, Inc. (translated “Seeds of Hope for Haiti”) helps to provide tuition sponsorship and resources for children there. Their ministry is based on the belief that children are the heart of Haiti, and they hold the hope for Haiti’s future. Their mission is to build strong leaders in Haiti, and they believe that starts with educating children who would otherwise have no possibility of obtaining an education.

If you are interested in taking a trip together there, please let us know.

Westpoint also encourages and supports several other ministries in Haiti, since the need is so great at this time.
