Cuba Partnership
We are in an ongoing partnership to pray and support the ministry of Nueva Ebenezer Baptist Church in Las Tunas, Cuba. There is a desperate need for over the counter medicines for the people of Las Tunas and we collect basic medications like ibuprophen, neosporin and benadryl at Easter and Christmas. We send these needed medicines through Kim Christman and Stan Dotson, who coordinate connections between WNC Baptist Churches and our sister churches in Cuba.
We have also raised funds to provide seed money for Granja Sostenible a sustainable farm raising goats and chickens to provide protein and income for the local community.
To help with medications and food for undernourished children go to Giving and put “McCurry Fund” in the notes box to help our sister church make a difference in their community.
To help support the next Mission Trip January 15-20 2026 put “Mission Trip” in the notes box.

A team from Hominy traveled with a team from First Baptist Asheville January 11-16 2024. Together we carried over 400 pounds of medications, school supplies, solar phone chargers, and food which was distributed through our sister congregation and 4 other Baptist churches in the Las Tunas and Holguin area.
2025 Mission Trip
In January 2025 a team from Hominy Baptist Church returned to Las Tunas accompanied by missionaries Stan Dotson and Kim Christman. We carried medicines, medical supplies, t-shirts and string bags for the children and made plans for ongoing and future ministry partnerships.
