Partnering with Belfast

Yesterday I spent the day with a team from the UK at one of our Home Based Care sites called Belfast. This week was my first week in Belfast.

This team represents a church in the UK that has committed to partner with Belfast long term. The pastor came with someone who specializes in working with Children, a coach, a doctor, a specialist in children with hearing deficits, and a gentleman who has adopted 3 children officially and many more unofficially. It was incredible to watch as this team learned about the community from the community. They offered themselves as learners, telling community leaders that they would like to partner with them.

The pastor has committed to send 2 or more specialized teams each year to help where the community has identified needs.

It was an honor to get to know this team and to walk along side of them in the community.
