MINISTRIES
North Haven Church is responding to the Great Commission by reaching those around the world and in our own backyard. Take a look at some of the ministry and volunteer opportunities we're involved with below.


Culiacán, Sinaloa, Mexico
North Haven Church has been sending teams to Culiacán for more than 20 years. We will be celebrating our 20th year of ministry with an anniversary trip July 30-August 6. Join us for an Information Meeting on May 1 at 11:45am or pick up a trip brochure at the Information Desk in the Commons.
We've built incredible friendships and powerful partnerships with people, churches, and communities there. All ages, from students to seniors, have helped meet a variety of needs, including hosting block parties, teaching Bible schools, and construction projects.
Bruce & Julie Adamson
Converge
The Adamsons have been missionaries for many years with Converge. Currently, they are focused on reaching the Diaspora (immigrants/refugees living within foreign countries), comprised of several cultures.
Previously, they served in the Ivory Coast, AF, and worked with university English learners in Senegal, AF.
The FS2G Initiative - Twin Cities is in catalytic partnership with local Converge churches to implement a city strategy for multiplying disciples among the least-reached nations next door.

Lucio & Vanita Berumen
Lucio and Vanita are serving at a church in Worthington, MN, along with their three sons.
Their ministry is also focused on Leadership Development in Latin America. Over the years, they have established many connections as they’ve traveled to over 40 countries, ministering to people who have hearts to serve God. Many do not have adequate training due to language barriers and financial barriers. But God has led the Berumen's to fill this gap. They've been using new strategies for discipleship and coaching as well as translating those resources into Spanish.
Ken & Linda Danielson
Pastor Ken Danielson and his wife Linda serve as Converge North Central Missionaries to Native families around the Lake of the Woods area of Minnesota and Canada. The ministry is twofold, a church plant in Warroad, MN, named "All Nations New Life Center" that serves the Native and local community through Bible study, worship, and prayer. The second half of the ministry includes Bible Study, Bible School, and door-to-door evangelism on Canadian reserves on Lake of the Woods.
They desire to see lives changed through God's Word and loving relationships, to see forgiveness and worship of our Lord, and to see Native elders and pastors raised to preach and declare freedom in Christ.


David & Carol J
Converge
David serves as International Director: Asia, working to bring about a gospel-movement among the least-reached peoples of Asia, laying strong foundations for global workers, building bridges with national partners, and opening doors to new areas of work.
David also works with Assessment Leader in Selecting Applicants qualified for Missionary Careers. He commutes as needed to Florida and Missionaries and areas in SouthEast Asia.
Paul & Amy Lindberg
Talking Bibles
Talking Bible's mission stems from a strong conviction that everyone in the world needs access to the Bible. Talking Bibles aims to give non-readers and the blind access to the Bible in their native language.
​
Paul Lindberg, through Talking Bibles, serves the Lord Jesus Christ by producing audio recordings of translated Scriptures in hundreds of languages and making these recordings accessible in the form of Talking Bibles for millions of people around the world who cannot read.
​
The readings are taped and then processed to be used in an encased, solar-powered speaker. As a result of this ministry, many become believers in Jesus as their Savior.


The Apparent Project
The Apparent Project is a Christian non-profit organization dedicated to empowering Haitian families through merchandise sales, childcare, early education, and job skills training.
The Apparent Project also seeks to build future leaders in Haiti, committed to creating leaders of integrity and godly character.
They also work to make the needs of Haiti apparent to people who want to help while inspiring the adoration of our loving Father God. And through the work of The Apparent Project, the hope is that Jesus will be apparent to all in this beautiful country.
Why I Am
WHY I AM is a local Christian non-profit that works with youth and young adults ages 12-24, teaching them life skills, job readiness, and engaging them in leisure and recreational activities.
Their mission is to help the youth and young adults grow into positive and productive adults, by giving them essential life skills training and experiences that they might not otherwise have access to. One of their goals is to offer these activities at no cost to the youth, young adults, and their families. Some of these activities include: Healing Trauma Circles (guides teens in life skills); Personal, social, and employment etiquette workshops; Archery, boating, fishing, and water recreation; Personal growth camping trips; Community service projects; and Financial literacy workshops and seminars.


The Respite
The Respite at Halibut Cove exists to give pastors and church leaders the time and space to rest.
They are located in Halibut Cove, Alaska: a beautifully restful place where the mountains meet the sea. The Respite combines their experience and knowledge of ministry with the quiet and rest of a solitary place to offer renewal and recalibration for ministry professionals experiencing distress, burnout, and the overwhelming weight of shepherding in these times.
​
More than just a much-needed and well-deserved vacation, The Respite is a resource to those entrenched in wearying patterns, enabling ministry leaders to discover a trajectory that keeps them going without falling apart.
Destiny Rescue
Destiny Rescue’s mission is to rescue kids from sexual exploitation and human trafficking and help them stay free while simultaneously revealing to those rescued the unending hope of Jesus Christ.
They do this through our rescue operations and reintegration programs. Destiny Rescue is active in countries where the need to save is great.
Because of their committed supporters, their rescue and reintegration staff bring freedom, hope, and healing to children around the clock – day and night!


Richardson Elementary School
Over 70% of students at Richardson are on free/reduced lunch.
We partner with the school to distribute meals to families in need because we don’t want to see them hungry in their own homes. We also see other unmet needs and strive to come alongside the students and families to see them succeed.
