Hello everyone here is a link to download our new newsletter.  It features a testimony from my niece from Majorie.  We are looking for schools for Donald and Majo to go to college.  We have found some perspective schools but they haven't been accepted at them yet just believing God will show us the way to go from here.  We know God is leading us we just don't want them to lose this chance.



 It has been a trying time here in Haiti.  We are still trying to get our power under control.  We have recently taken Reynalto, Raymond's son into our home and are hopefully going to adopt him in the near future.  It has been a trying time for him because so many people have left him and he has not had the attention that a child should have at his age.



We do this for Raymond we know this is what he would want us to do.  The lord tells us to take care of orphans and widows.  They can't help themselves.  It is not this boy's fault that his dad died and his mom ran away.  When we took him he was really skinny and had diarhea for three months.  It is by the grace of God that we were here at the right time to help him.



The church is stable right now.  We are hopefully going to get a men's group to meet soon.  It has been a need for a long time.  For men to have fellowship and have a place to say their peace with out Judgement.  We have lost our transportation for the moment.  We have a motorcycle that is our only transportation.  I was trying to drive the Dodge Dakota last week and the crankshaft broke.  Please keep us in your prayers because Angie is going to have to go to her Christian school next month.  God is in control and he will take care of it.  God Bless you all.

Hello everyone it has been a long strange trip to get here.  The devil has been trying to attack us in every way.  First when we were leaving the U.S.  I forgot my Haitian resident card and we were delayed a day until we could leave.  We arrive in Haiti the next day.  We return to a house with an inverter that is slowly dying and electricity that is given on the mercy of the Haitian government.  All in all I have grown closer to God through all of these trials.  We don't have the words to thank all of the faithful people who have helped us throughout the year.  The work continues here even though the devil has tried everything to stop us from doing the work of God, we have the victory through our faith in Christ.

The church is almost around 60 people.  We are a young church but God uses us to continue to preach the Gospel to Haiti, to have Jesus Christ be glorified.  The school will be starting school and we need your continued sponsorship to help further the future of the children in the mountains of Haiti.  To let us shine in the darkness.  Haiti is a very dark place and a stronghold for the devil.  We can only do this work, through the Godhead of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  Without God I can do nothing.  That is why we depend so heavily on the support of faithful Christians who have a heart for Haiti and for the work of God.

Even though I was worried the the church here in Haiti would die or that the work here would fail.  God is faithful and it has continued and is growing.  We are very thankful for all of the support and prayers throughout this past year and we need them to continue.  Thank you Cornerstone Church, STBI,and especially Pastor Darryl Smith and Sister Catherine Smith. We couldn't do this work without you.  We would also like to thank Harborview Chapel who has be instrumental in helping in whatever we need through this year and beyond.

Thank you Pastor Rusty Maddox and his wife Heide you have adopted us into your family and we are very thankful for that.  Thank you Portland Christian Center for all of your support and all the prayers.  You have been faithful since 2008 and we are very thankful for our with you and all that you do.  Thank you Pastor Jim Harris for making us feel like part of the family whenever we are attending church. Thank you Golden years group for your faithful support and prayers.  We love to thank the Board and that they do.  We would love to thank my aunt Terecia and my cousins for the money they raised recently.  Also Steve and Ann Jacobs thank you for your companies help and your faithfulness to support us in our work.  Also Miss Lawanda at PCC you are so faithful in your support we would not have made it this past year without you.

Thanks to and know that your reward is in heaven, even though sometimes you may not think that you are doing something big, you are in our eyes.  It through faith and through support that we are able to do the work we are doing.  God Bless you all
