Haiti Relief Efforts- WEAG Haiti Relief Effort-WEAG has a long term commitment to the people of Haiti and are in frequent communication with our missionaries.   David and Judy Heady with Global Outreach report their compound has become the staging area for several other ministries such as Samaritan's Purse to place and distribute their supplies and people. For up to date information on our Haiti missionary friends visit the Haiti Outreach Ministries, Global Outreach  or CSI websites.
    We are currently in communication with our missionaries in Haiti and have scheduled a team to go in January 2011.  E- mail us if you are interested in being a part of a future relief team.
 
Chile Relief Efforts-WEAG has also had a long term relationship with the people of Chile.   We are in communications with the Masts and the Briesmasters and have sent funds ahead with them as they help in the relief effort.  We will be considering sending a relief team to serve with them if they express a need and if there is enough interest.

I can’t go on a project!  How can I help?
While everyone isn’t called to go into full time missions service, we can support those that do.  Currently, WEAGers support 121 full time missionaries through prayer and finances of $40,000 per month.  Many of the teams that we send work with our own homegrown missionaries in countries around the world. 
 
By combining our finances, taking advantage of convenient air travel and offering ministry opportunities within people’s time schedules, we hope there are places for every WEAGer to fulfill the call of the Great Commission.  We invite you to call or email us to sign up or ask questions – we would love to hear from you.
