Haiti

LaFayette Park United Methodist Church is growing because it is involved in making a difference in the surrounding community. Church member, Frank Domke, after attending a class on the outward focused church felt challenged to do something. He started Bridge Bread. As Frank tells it in this MissionCast, Bridge Bread isn’t about making bread but instead about providing jobs and valuable skills to guests at the Bridge. The Bridge is a ministry with downtown St. Louis’ sojourners (homeless), housed in Centenary United Methodist Church. The Bridge feeds hundreds of sojourners each week and helps them with common needs. One of those needs is employment and that is where Bridge Bread comes in.
