The University of Mobile (UMobile) School of Christian Ministries recently sent 15 students and professors to Moldova and Haiti, the 50th and 51st countries ministered to through University Missions.
Joe Savage, executive dean of the School of Christian Ministries, led seven students on the trip to Moldova. His team partnered with Pastor Jeff Copeland of First Baptist Church, Robertsdale, and a member of the UMobile board of regents. Bo Rice, an adjunct professor at UMobile, led the Haiti team. Rice and his team partnered with Pastor Monoit Mercilus, who oversees 10 churches across Haiti.
The Haiti and Moldova teams focus on orphan care, outreach at schools and universities and developing long-term plans to help curtail human trafficking and poverty.
Missions efforts continue this summer in Germany with a student team led by Christian Ministries Dean Doug Wilson and Center for Performing Arts Assistant Dean Bruce Earnest.
