In
2002 Tricia had the opportunity to go on a short-term
mission trip to LaGonave, Haiti. At that time she
felt that at some point in her life she would return
to do full-time missions work. In January of 2006
Butch and Tricia were able to take a trip together,
and God put a passion in their hearts to return.
“With our children grown, we knew that we were at
a place in our lives that we had more to give. So
after much prayer, we started the missionary application
process. As a result of another short-term trip
to Haiti in 2007, we are convinced of God's call
upon our lives.”
In
May of 2007, the Alexander's were appointed to career
missionary service to Haiti with Wesleyan Global
Partners. They will be working under the direction
of WISH as the Assistant Directors on the island
of LaGonave. It is their desire to allow God to
work through them as His instruments in sharing
love and Jesus with the Haitian people in tangible
ways.
Butch
and Tricia are from western Pennsylvania and are
members of the Sandy Lake Wesleyan Church. They
have two adult children.
