Since the very early years of Step of Faith Ministry, money has been put aside for the construction of a medical clinic to help the people of Haiti. For some years an amount of this money remained for a “future” clinic due to uncertainties that it would be run and taken care of in a way that would last for generations. That was until SOFM began to partner with Aslan Youth Ministry in 2007.
When the vision was cast from Aslan to SOFM about a “Clinic in a Can” Medical Clinic that could be constructed in the US and shipped to Haiti to be put on the Aslan property in Lac’ajue, SOFM got behind it and has continued to support it ever since. The Clinic of Hope Medical Clinic has been a beacon of hope to the families in Lac’ajue and surrounding areas. US nurses and doctors have visited for many years now and have served along side the Haitian staff of a doctor, nurse, lab tech and pharmacist.
The Clinic of Hope, along with the Clean Water Program and Grains of Grace Feeding Program is providing to be life saving and prolonging the lives of our friends and their families. Just in the past two years we have seen how this clinic has helped motorcycle accident victims, adults dealing with Sickle Cell Anemia, high blood pressure and other conditions that could have otherwise taken their lives.
Each month SOFM provides the staff salaries, medication and fuel to run the clinic. For $1685 a month, we have been able to help make a difference in the lives of 100’s of people.
We currently have enough in our Medical Fund to run the clinic for 9 more months. We are making this need known believing that God will provide. The clinic has been operational since 2014 and we pray it will go on for generations to come! Please help us make this need known so we can continue to provide what is needed and life saving. Thank you!

Hello Everyone!
We are only months away from our two mission trips this summer… Atlantic City and Albania!
This will be our 11th team going back to serve along side (now) Pastor Pete and New City Fellowship in Atlantic City and our 2nd team going back to Albania to serve with Pastor Plator and his growing ministry in and around the area of Korce.
The AC Team will be serving from August 5-11 and the Albania Team will be serving from August 25-Sept 4. Both teams have been diligently preparing and raising funds for many months.
The AC Team is made up of 11 team members from 5 different churches. Each morning we will be engaged in discipleship teaching on cross-cultural ministry learning about how we can be more aware of the people around us, sharing the Word of God and being a bridge from the community to the church. During the day we will be involved with a variety of service projects that the team from AC prepares for us. This time will give us opportunity to share Jesus and help meet some tangible needs in the community. And three of the nights we will be sharing Jesus with the children of Carver Hall through our Bible Club.
The Albania Team is made up of 10 team members from 4 different churches, including our friends Ted & Katie Kenney from Plays on Word Ministry. While in Albania we will be sharing our Bible theme of “Creation” with over 200 children and also a group of youth during a one day discipleship workshop. We will travel to the different church plants that Pastor Plator currently has, including going far up the mountains to one of the remote villages (as we did last year). Our time will be blessed as we get to act out, sing and share the love of Jesus with this predominately Muslim / atheist country that has less than 2% Christians.
We are asking for your prayers for the remaining preparations, financial responsibilities and the travel to and from for our teams. We are excited to see how God is going to use all of us and truly appreciate your prayers for all of it!
