My Life Speaks is a public non-profit organization whose goal is to develop a Christ-centered community in Neply, Haiti through orphan care and prevention, education and public health. The idea was sparked by Mike Wilson in 2003 when he visited a missions facility in Haiti, only to return in 2005 with a group of teenagers.Local resident Bliss Zechman and a group of Phi Mu Sorority sisters volunteered in Neply through the My Life Speaks program May 16-23. It was a life-changing experience for Zechman and the group.
