This mission is about connecting neighbors: the people of Holy Spirit Parish in Stevens Point, Wisconsin and of St. Joseph Parish in Lalomas, Haiti. It is a way for neighbors to share their lives with each other and to help each other in times of need.

One area that Lalomas Parish needs our help in is to help educate the children of the parish. We have decided to respond to that need by our prayers, by traveling to Haiti to directly connect with the parishioners of St. Joseph Parish, and by donations of goods and money.

TWINNING PARISH is the name we use to describe the connection between our Parish, Holy Spirit, and Saint Joseph Parish in Lalomas, Haiti.
