Can teenagers really make a difference in Haiti?
Absolutely. It’s easy to look at the big picture of all the devastation and think, “There’s no way we can put a dent in that. Let’s leave it to the experts.” While the experts are definitely needed, there’s also a need for normal every-day people like you and me to be there and serve. The experts can operate the big heavy machinery and provide medical expertise — we can minister to the spiritual and emotional needs of the Haitians. Although you and your teens might not make a big dent in the lives of every Haitian, you will make an incredible difference in the lives of some Haitians. And if enough believers step up and do it, that can add up. It certainly matters to the individuals who you are able to help.
