I wanted to update everyone about our most recent team that left from Haiti this past Saturday. We had a blast being with them and having them hang out with our kids, and we have gotten to meet a lot of people the past few days. While the team was here, we got to do […]
What is humility? Why is it important? How do I attain something that seems so difficult? It’s funny that the answer to each of these questions is the same and is found in the person of Jesus Christ. He is humility, it is important because we follow Christ and He tells us it is important, […]
There are so many people to thank for their help in our silent auction this past Saturday evening. As I mentioned in a previous blog, Jess and I did not do a lot leading up to the event. In fact, we were actually in Haiti until about 2 weeks before the auction took place so […]
Don’t go to Haiti unless you want to change the way you think about everything in your life. Nobody told me that last year, and I’m glad they didn’t. I just got back several weeks ago from my second trip to Haiti and it finds a way into every area of your life. Through my […]
Hopefully each of you guys read this post that Jess made last week about some things that she has seen here that we never thought we would see. If you have not, you should click the link and read it, it is very interesting, funny, and sad at the same time. Anyway, with that said, […]
First of all, this Jessica, not Matt. I am 31 years old and in the process of moving to Haiti to run an orphanage. Over the last two years we have been to Haiti about 13 times. Most of these trips have been for a week or 2 at a time and right now we […]
After a full year of looking forward to being full-time with All Things New, the time has finally come! We are in Haiti for the next month and it will be our longest stay to date. So far, our time here has been great. We have a nice house that Christianville is allowing us to […]
The past few weeks seem to have been really difficult for some reason. As many of you know, my grandfather (Dang Dang as we affectionately called him) passed away a little over a week ago. It wasn’t sudden, and he had a long and wonderful life, but it was still tough. We were very close […]
I have to be honest about something to start with…I did go shopping on Black Friday. I am not necessarily against Black Friday in general, but it is definitely not my favorite day of the year by any means. It is a tradition for my family in LaGrange for us to go either to Newnan […]
There are so many things going on right now that can only be explained by the grace of GOD! Some things that have happened with All Things New recently are just incredible, and there are also some events in our personal lives that GOD is just showing us His love mightily. This post is going […]
I recently began reading through and studying the book of Isaiah. There was no epiphany or big spiritual reason why I began to study the book, I was actually in the midst of going through the New Testament (I was in Luke) when I left my notebook in St. Simons, GA on a recent trip […]
There is so much going on with All Things New right now, I thought I would take some time to just let you guys know some of the things that are happening. GOD has blessed this ministry so much it is even hard to explain, but with that said, there is still so much more […]
