An organization is only as effective as it’s people are willing. The impact of Builders International in Haiti was greatly impacted by the service of Richard and Kelly Green. The Greens moved to Haiti in August 2012, hosting many construction teams, leading a Haitian construction crew and finishing seven churches and grade school facilities that had been destroyed.

In order to to make their move to Haiti possible, the Greens sold their home, gave away a vehicle, and closed their florist shop.

Richard with the children of ZuZu, Tanzania.

As the work began to draw down in Haiti, Richard began to ask what’s next? It turns out, Tanzania is next! Richard will be working on the Dodoma Bible College. The church in Tanzania is in a robust ten-year initiative to plant 10,000 new churches!

The Greens head for Tanzania on May 12, 2014.
