Karen Jacobsen

We would love for folks in our congregation to get to know Karen Jacobsen. She was sent out from our sister church Redeemer Montclair to serve with Food for the Hungry in Rwanda. Our church is currently supporting Karen financially, but we would like to provide opportunities to support her emotionally and spiritually also as she adjusts to a whole new life in Rwanda.

Kerri Boyer

 

Kerri Boyer is another missionary that our church helps to support financially. Kerri has been working in India on short term trips since 2005 with Global Refuge International. She had been earnestly praying for a way to be there on a full time basis and in April of 2009, the Lord paved the way for a more permanent positon. We invite you to get to know Kerri and find out how to pray for her and all of our Christian brothers and sisters that work where we cannot go.

Through the Eyes of Hope Project - Trip 2009

Rwanda is one of the poorest and most densely populated countries in Africa. The 1994 Genocide and the spread of HIV have created an estimated 1 million orphans and vulnerable children. After our long journey to Rwanda, we spent a few days in Rinkwavu with the Partners in Health hospital.  Some of the kids' stories are amazing. One of these was Marc, who was in the pediatric ward and couldn't go far from his bed.

Nepal Mission Trip

By Maria Greshock


I recently returned to Hoboken after my short-term mission trip to Kathmandu, Nepal. Nepal is a 3rd World nation tucked beneath the Himalaya Mountains. For much of its history, the country was under the rule of a Hindu king, but in recent years, the monarchy had been overthrown by
Maoist-led protests. It is now the site for much political unrest, religious extremism and civil war.
