First of all, I wanted to remind everyone of a very important blog series that we are about to start. In the next couple of weeks, you will begin to see blog posts about each of our children. We are hoping to use these blog posts to give each of our sponsors and supporters a […]
We arrived back in Haiti yesterday, and we were so excited to pull into Hope Rising and see our kids after a month of being away. I will tell you, we were not disappointed by our kids’ reaction. They were just as thrilled as we were to see our truck pull in and we could […]
It has been a little while since our last blog post, and we have been extremely busy here. We have moved our kids into a new home here at Hope Rising (which we will write about in a blog soon), and we had a team here last week that was making sure everything would be […]

The last few weeks down in Haiti have been some of our most difficult yet for a lot of reasons. In the midst of this, there have been quite a few potential decisions that have come up and that we have been praying through as we seek after GOD’s guidance. During this same time I […]
This past week we had a team come down from FBC LaGrange, and that team included my (Matt) parents Bill and Mike (my Mom) Bush. There are a lot of things that we will talk about and blog about from the past 3 weeks because we have had 3 different teams and we want to […]
It has been a couple of weeks since our last blog, but we have had two wonderful teams come down the past 2 weeks and we have been really busy hanging out with them and working with them as they shared the love of Christ down here in Haiti. We have another team coming this […]
