Calvin Christian Community Group

Calvin Christian Community Group began in 2016. Partnering together with Lemuel Ministries and United Christians International the group has send different teams to northern Haiti. The primary focus of the work there was food security, agricultural support, house construction, and scholarships for university students.

Due to the ongoing unrest in Haiti, the group started partner with Carlos Pimentel in the neighbouring Dominican Republic, serving primarily Haitian communities in the southern region of the Dominican Republic.

The group send a team of young adults to the batey villages Vasca and Paraiso and to the New Jerusalem Community in November 2022. The team helped with different construction projects, food distribution, Days For Girls distribution and training, and VBS activities.

In 2024 the team travelled to the same communities in the Dominican Republic. The team participated in the construction of a new classroom in New Jerusalem, started the construction of the new DFG sewing center, and worked together with the local church on community outreach programs and a bible school program for children.

The team also sent a team in 2025, working in the same communities and connecting with the people they had met before.

Calvin Christian Group - July 2019

Caiman, Haiti

A team of 14 from Calvin Christian School Group, led by HFL leader Wilhelmina Krul, worked alongside our partner United Christians International in Pignon, Haiti. They were involved in various construction projects (e.g., building some homes), along with feeding programs and women hygiene teaching.

"This trip brought me to the realization that many Haitians are actually richer than I am. They may be poor outwardly, but their faith is so apparent and their love for God shines out to others."
