Advent Hope and Haiti’s Faithful Journey- A Season of Waiting and Witness

As we journey through these days of Advent, we are reminded that this is a season filled with hope and expectation—and that our road to the fullness of God’s Kingdom has mountains to climb and valleys to descend before we reach our destination.
