Hazelwood Resident Serves in Haiti

Jessica Rodell was one of 11 Missouri Baptist University students to travel to Haiti to rebuild a family’s house that was destroyed in the 2010 earthquake.

The students went on the mission trip from May 5 to May 14 to assist the work of Bethel Mission Outreach, a multifaceted mission organization located in Croix Des Bouquets, Haiti. This is the fourth consecutive year MBU has partnered with Bethel Mission.

The Haitian family of six whose house the group rebuilt, had been living in a tent since the Jan. 12, 2010 earthquake.
