Bowers to New Field
Missionaries that have ministered in Haiti for decades all agree – the current situation in Haiti is the worst they have seen. Over 90 gangs have been empowered by power-mongers whose greed and wicked pursuit reign supreme. Violence and kidnappings have become everyday occurrences. A gallon of gas on the black-market costs $30 causing Haiti’s infrastructure (schools, hospitals, stores, etc.) to become paralyzed. Haiti’s greatest need is prayer!
Tim & RoseAnne Bower
Tim and RoseAnne Bower have been our missionaries to Haiti for many years. As conditions in Haiti continue to get worse, the Bowers are making plans to go to a different mission field this year.
On the evening of December 4th Tim shared with us how God has been leading them to Haitians in the Bahamas.

Morningside sends Relief Aid to Myanmar
“Tomorrow is not sure for us.” - Myanmar Pastor
Morningside sends critical relief aid to Christians in Myanmar who are in hiding and suffering from the military coup.
Crisis in Myanmar
The situation in Myanmar continues to get worse. While news reports are not as prevalent as they should be, staying informed opens doors for Christians to pray and help.
Morningsiders Serving in Summer Ministry
Although most foreign mission trips have been cancelled due to Covid, Morningside is thankful to support and pray for college students and young adults serving in Christian camps and on mission trips in the US. Some Morningsiders recently served on a mission team to San Francisco.
Reaching the Youth in Africa
No Safe Zones
African youth, especially girls, face multiple threats on a regular basis, often from those closest to them. Their environment, society and their families offer little to no protection. In many cases their only help and hope are missionaries and churches who demonstrate Christ’s love and proclaim the Gospel. ODBM missionaries, Seth & Amy Meyers, share a glimpse of the challenges facing young people in Africa.
Serving Vision_2020_Asia
Morningside has partnered with Vision2020Asia for many years to preach the Gospel, make disciples, and plant churches in India and beyond. Morningside is thankful to give a $1,450 gift to Vision2020Asia to advance the Gospel and minister to those in great need during the Covid crisis.

Myanmar Book Project Update
On the Move
Due to the ongoing military coup in Myanmar, we are unable to ship the container full of books. God has graciously provided a new storage facility that is much better conditioned for long term storage. On Thursday, May 6th, the books were moved to the new facility and will be stored safely until the Lord opens the door to ship the books to Myanmar.
