History

Our Member Churches
HOM was founded in 1998 after Dr. Dominique Monde-Matthews and her husband Roger visited her native land on their honeymoon, and decided that they wanted to do something to help alleviate suffering in Haiti.
Since then, our organization has grown to include six Catholic and Episcopal churches in Southeast Michigan and Montana who are officially members of HOM through their annual contribution of $4,000 in “seed money” to sustain HOM operations. We are a 501(c)(3) charitable, ecumenical, mission group.

Mission Trips
Fundraising Events
Partners in Mirebalais
The first effort of HOM was to provide some sort of medical assistance to areas where none was available. This initiative has grown to an annual major trip where up to 25 doctors, dentists, nurses, construction/repair persons visit Mirebalais. All travelers are responsible for their own expenses. In Mirebalais and outlying areas the team does "whatever needs to be done," including: packing and unloading supplies; transforming available spaces into mobile medical/dental clinics; seeing patients - including the occasional life saving emergency; prescribing medicines; giving fluoride treatments; providing continuing education and spiritual assistance; visiting with our Haitian friends and partners. It is a time of great camaraderie and personal reflection, and a life changing experience for everyone involved.
