We are SO excited to be able to add Jean Philippe "JP" to our team at Grace Center as the Grace Kids Coordinator.
We are working to strengthen our Grace Kids Sponsorship program. JP will be in charge of tutoring our Grace Kids (doing Kid's Club during the summer months), weekly Bible study with Grace Kids & their mothers, checking on the Kids4Kids goat program, monthly parenting classes, and building relationships with the families. This is an important part of our Malnutrition PREVENTION program. Its always better to prevent a problem instead of treat one!
We have known JP since 2014 when Elizabeth and Grace met him during their first trip to Haiti. At that time he was working as a translator and he went above and beyond to share his love of his country and his people with us. He took great pride in his work and in making sure we were cared for. We could see from the start that he loves the Lord and people deeply.
He has a love for education and teaching and recognizes that education is the key to opportunity and positive future.
He is an entrepreneur and hard worker and has created and runs a local soccer club and English school.
But truly JP is an evagenlist at heart with a passion for sharing the Word of God with any and everyone who will hear him. You can find him every Sunday preaching at different churches in our area.
He is graduating next month from GOC University with his degree in Business Administration and is coming to us with lots of great ideas and dreams for team building and improvement. He is working for us part time now and we hope to make him full time in the future as we continue to grow!
