10 Year Reunion
// New Missions
Students from our graduating class of 2005 recently gathered for a class reunion. “Most of us were raised in a miserably poor family,” said Roland Henry—now a school teacher in Haiti. “If it was not for New Missions, I ask what kind of people would we have become? It’s truly a grace from God! I cannot find a word to express the love I have for my graduating class.”
On a Thursday afternoon, they returned to the high school chapel where they had graduated from 10 years prior. The focus was: What’s happened since 2005? Reflecting back, they remembered fellow classmate, Durvil, who died during the earthquake in Haiti. “We miss him so much. I want you to stand to have a minute of silence in Durvil’s name,” stated Nerylne Movil. Their silence shouted how much they missed him.
"Because of New Missions, I'm a nurse. I serve in the Leogane region. Thank you and may God bless you." Nerylne Movil, class of 2005
Marie Carminne Calix, now a teacher in the village of Ambas-Peres (where she was born), also graduated in 2005.
From an architect to teachers, photographer, nurse and a pastor—the jobs these graduates found varied. They represent a new generation of Christian leaders.
