After 14 years of medical mission work at the Good Samaritan Hospital, Steve as a doctor and Nancy as a nurse, the Haitian Baptist Convention invited the Jameses to return to Haiti to help with medical assistance to Christian faith-based community health centers.

Thank you for your ongoing faithfulness in prayer and support.
