Not satisfied with treating mere "symptoms", the church is also on the cutting edge of environmental work and reforestation. The shortage of clean water is the direct result of slash-and-burn practices that have wiped out 50% of Madagascar's forests.

Dr. Dan Turk is seen below with his daughter Elizabeth.  Elizabeth and her brother Frances have been raised in Madagascar and are tri-lingual, fluent in English, French and Malagasy. With a Ph.D. in Forestry, Dr. Turk offers invaluable guidance to the church's mission. Together, they offer irresistible evidence of God's love.
