Rev. Erin's Mission Trip to Haiti

In October 2017 I was blessed to go on my first mission trip to the small village of Mellier, Haiti. Working with Water to Life and the Central Texas Conference of the United Methodist Church, we were able to bring water filters to almost 200 families. Just as important, we were able to share our lives with the beautiful people in this small village. While our mornings were full of water sanitation training sessions, our afternoons and evenings were spent playing with children and getting to know families. Our spirits were filled and renewed as we worshiped with our host Haitian Methodist church.


This January 25-February 1, I am leading a team of adults from New World United Methodist Church in Arlington on a return trip to Mellier. We will continue the mission to bring water filters to the families of the village, as well as reconnect with our Haitian friends.

I would be honored if you would consider sponsoring my trip financially. A donation of $20 will cover the cost of bringing a water filter to a family, giving them the opportunity to live healthier lives. 

Even more so, I would be honored if you would lift us up in prayer as we prepare for this journey. This is my first time serving as the team leader, and I ask for your prayers for all of the details to be worked out smoothly, for our safety, and for peace of mind. 

With deep gratitude,

Rev. Erin Sloan Jackson
