Madame Pierre Embrase School

This Mission-Haiti-operated school is partnered with Embrace Church. Madame Pierre is the newest addition to Mission-Haiti operations, built in 2019. This school was built in a rural area to reach more students living in the mountain area. Students that once had a 2-hour commute by foot to school each morning now have a school closer to home. The land for this school was donated by a member of the community because of how eager this community was for a school. Not only is the Madame Pierre School getting an expansion- meaning more teacher jobs available and more students able to attend school, but during the construction period, it employed 37 full-time positions and an additional 30 part-time positions. This means a consistent source of income for so many families that help them put food on the table, finish their own construction project, start a business, or put money away for a rainy day.

Jabouin Embrase School

Mission-Haiti has been operating this school since 2012. With the support and funding from Embrace, this school that once met in a house now has a fully functioning school building including a cafeteria, kitchen, and school office. 

Summer 2022 Update: During the 2021-2022 school year 297 students attended Jabouin Embrase School and 143 attended the Madame Pierre Embrase School.

Shoe Drive Update

The barrels full of shoes have successfully been shipped! We cannot thank you enough for pulling through to get a pair of shoes on each student in our program this year. Shoes will be handed out at distribution in August, so be on the lookout for updates. Until then, prayers are needed for a successful shipment across the sea and ease of retrieval from customs.

What’s Next For Mission Haiti

The end of the school year is wrapping up in the next couple weeks. Please be in prayer for the students of these schools to finish strong. Be on the lookout for updated information and photos of your sponsor students coming soon.
