Connect 2 Ministries invites you to join us for a day of prayer on July 28, as we come before the Lord to seek His guidance and wisdom for our ministry in Haiti. Sign up for email updates here. As Christians, we believe prayer is powerful. In a world filled with noise, isolation, and injustice, prayer anchors us in the truth of who God is and how He works. Seeking the Lord in prayer is an opportunity to participate in what God is already doing—and Scripture reminds us of this in multiple ways. 1. Prayer Gives Us Access to God’s [...]

At Connect 2 Ministries, we’ve developed four core pillars that create a framework for everything we do in ministry. The goal of this series is to highlight each pillar by explaining what it means, why it matters, and how it makes a difference in our ministry. Indigenous Ministry “Making disciples” doesn’t stop after conversion. Our goal is to support Haitian believers by equipping them for ministry in a culture they know better than we ever could. The fourth pillar of Connect 2 Ministries is indigenous ministry. We believe that the most effective, faithful, and lasting gospel work is carried [...]

The goal of this series is to highlight each pillar by explaining what it means, why it matters, and how it makes a difference in our ministry. Compassionate Relationships Compassion for suffering is a good thing. Jesus healed, fed, and comforted the needy as He gave them the good news of salvation, and we work to do the same. All of our humanitarian work, from construction to supplying food and medicine, acts as a means to communicate Jesus. At the heart [...]

At Connect 2 Ministries, we’ve developed four core pillars that create a framework for everything we do in ministry. The goal of this series is to highlight each pillar by explaining what it means, why it matters, and how it makes a difference in our ministry. Biblically Focused The Bible is our source. We have no wisdom, peace, or hope without it, so all of our ministry necessarily flows from a foundation on God’s Word. At Connect 2 Ministries, everything we do begins and ends with the Word of God. Our first pillar of ministry—biblically focused—is not just a principle. [...]

June 12 is World Day Against Child Labor, and every year, this day gives us reason to seek the Lord in prayer while thanking Him for the work He has already done in Haiti. Dozens of children rescued from slavery now call our C2M family home, living in an environment where they are loved, educated, and given a hope-filled future. All of this is from the Lord. To mark this World Day Against Child Labor, we want to invite you to check out our founder Greg Barshaw’s book, Go, Engage, Invest: Touching Lives with the Hope of Christ. [...]

Whatever cultural or missions context you find yourself in, some things remain consistent. One of these things is the role of the church in reaching out to the lost rather than passively hoping they’ll come to us. Differences in culture are real, but they affect methodology, not foundational principles—the how, not the what, of biblical ministry. Ministry in Western Europe, for example, is less needs-based and more crisis-based than ministry in a third-world region. Wealthy cultures stand less affected by poverty, disease, and other issues that characterize life in developing countries, and that determines what ministry opportunities will look like. [...]
