We have our first big fundraiser this coming Saturday for All Things New, and it is going to be awesome! If you haven’t heard about it, it is this Saturday (March 1) at 5:00 pm and will take place at Jacksonville Country Day School. We have some incredible food and a lot of great auction […]
Jess and I arrived back in Jacksonville this past Tuesday, and it has been both really good and really difficult at the same time. When we arrived home, we saw a “For Sale” sign in our yard, and it was surreal to think that we are trying to sell our house. But then we took […]
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 […]
As many of you know, we just got back from a week long trip to Haiti with a team of 12. This last trip was a blast! We took my parents, Jessica’s parents, my sister and brother-in-law, Jared and Natalie Nobles, and Chase and Angela Covington. We wanted to show our friends and family what […]
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 […]
It has been a while since we have posted a new blog, and we apologize for that! There is so much going on, it is sometimes difficult to do everything that we would like. Today, I am going to take some time to just let everyone know of the many changes coming. Beginning this ministry […]
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 […]
We got back from Haiti this past Saturday night. This has been one of the hardest times coming back. We got to spend so much time with the kids these last couple of weeks and really got to be part of their daily routine. I am finding myself waking up early in the morning ready […]
We are so excited about our upcoming trip to Haiti! We will be there from October 17 – 26 and we will get to spend a lot of time with our kids. I feel like we haven’t seen them in ages, and that is the most exciting thing for both of us about this trip…We […]
