Meet Mark Hare, PCUSA Mission Worker
He speaks 4 languages, has a Master’s Degree in agronomy from Michigan State University and he’s our guy in Haiti. In his 20 years as a Peace Corps volunteer and PCUSA mission worker, he has acquired a deep understanding of the connections between small farmers, ecology, nutrition and demonstrating Christ’s love for the poor people of the world. He has improved the lives of thousands of poor families by showing them how to grow super-nutritious food in a small place. He has a lot to teach us, too, about how we can improve our lives and the world around us.
