Country Lead: Central African Republic,Togo, Sierra Leone, Haiti
Sending Agency: VisionTrust
Our Missionary Partner: Pastor Tom and Sue have served in our church for many years. Pastor Tom served as Missions Pastor for ten years. Sue has always worked hard with kids in local public schools.
God called them to develop fully devoted followers of Christ in Africa. Then God called pastor Tom to serve at Grace Church. Later, God called him to serve in Africa with ICDI, now with VisionTrust as country lead for orphan care in Central African Republic, Togo, Sierra Leone, and Haiti. We support Pastor Tom as our missionary partner from Grace Church.
Their Mission: Pastor Tom oversees the orphan care ministries of VisionTrust in Africa and Haiti. He travels a lot. He has served in Zimbabwe and Kenya in 2014. He logged 78,833 air miles for VisionTrust. He quips that is is no wonder he has a sore seat.
The needs of orphans and their extended families is exacerbated with war, displacement, and disease. In the Central African Republic civil unrest hampers the care of orphans. In Haiti, the recovery efforts from the devastating 2010 earthquake are slow and challenging. In Togo, sustainable income to support families is daunting, but God is making a way for families to support themselves. In Sierra Leone, Ebola ravages families and brings death and despair. If you want more information, please contact Pastor Tom Peters via email. Or you can learn more about the ministry of VisionTrust by visiting their webpage.
How to Be Involved
PRAY: Pray for Pastor Tom as he travels for VisionTrust--many miles, many days away from Sue. May God empower him to rest before and after each trip.
