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 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 […]
I want to start off by telling you a story. One of the first trips we took to Haiti, we were in the car riding with a Haitian man who has become a good friend of ours – Christian. He is a very passionate, good, and caring man who works for Christianville. As we were […]
I want to spend a few posts just writing about what I have learned over the past year from going down to Haiti, and what we can hopefully teach some of our friends in Haiti because we have grown up in America. I love that I was born here and I love being American. […]
Many of you know our kids officially started school yesterday. Previously they were in 6 different schools spread out throughout the community they are living in. When we were in Haiti in August, Matt and I had to go to these different schools to collect records on the kids….this was a challenge! It did give […]

We are meeting from 5:00-7:00 pm at the San Marco Preservation Hall here in Jacksonville, FL to celebrate what GOD has been doing in and through All Things New. The last few months have seemed like they have been moving way too fast! There have […]
