Minute of Mission - LaGonave Haiti Partners’ mission is for Haitian and American partners to build vibrant, hopeful, and resilient communities on the island of LaGonâve. Due to the pandemic, Shallowford’s support has shifted from in person support through an annual mission trip, to fulfilling Amazon Wishlists and collecting donations. Shallowford School and Church members are on LaGonave’s Board, Education, and Development Committees in an effort to support ongoing needs. To support the mission, head to lagonavepartners.org.
Joy Chorale - Calling all adults who like to sing! We have a daytime choir that meets Mondays at 11:00 a.m. in the choir room. To join the choir, please email Mark Ridings, Associate Director of Music Ministries, at [email protected] to state your interest.
