Our History
American Christians became involved
in northern Haiti in the 1980's in
medical missions, orphanages, water
well drilling, food distribution and
schools. The churches were growing
though radio evangelism and diligent
efforts by the Haitian brethren.
However, with the rapid growth of
the church, it was recognized that
many churches did not have
biblically-sound men preaching the
gospel. The Haitian churches asked
for a school to train ministers. In
March 1993, a group of Christians
with wide backgrounds and talents
met together and formed the Haitian
Christian Foundation. They
purchased land in December 1993
and broke ground the following
spring.
