First of all, I want to make sure to mention the upcoming Jacksonville Fundraiser. I know that the event is tomorrow (at 7:00pm at Christ’s Church Mandarin) but there is still time to sign up and come. This is a very important event in the life of All Things New, so if you live in […]
Since we finished our chronological reading of the Bible a couple of weeks ago, I have picked up my personal study of the book of Acts. I just finished Acts 4 last night so I wanted to share some thoughts about the 2 chapters and how I hope they change and shape my life. In […]
If you have been keeping up with us lately, you have probably heard the term “business sponsorships.” I want to go into a little more detail about why we are doing this and what it will look like long-term. I also want to give credit to the person who came up with this idea, Jennifer […]
I want to start this post off by giving a disclaimer about the title…I do not necessarily think you have to choose between buildings and people. Sometimes you do, but that is not the point of the blog. I simply want to talk about how GOD has changed the direction of All Things New over […]
I am sitting in the Miami airport waiting for my Dad’s flight to arrive so we can have lunch together and then fly down to Haiti. I have not been back to Haiti since moving the kids in back at the end of February (read about that story here), and I have a few different […]
Since Part 1 ended where we were last Tuesday with 4 rental options, I thought I would list them here and then tell you why they either would or would not work well. If you missed part 1, this probably does not make sense so click here to read it and get caught up. Anyway, […]
As you probably know, this past week was a busy week of making final decisions about where we would move our kids. It looks like we will be moving them on Wednesday or Thursday of this week and we are all very excited about it! There are some difficult things that we will have to […]
I am sitting here thinking about how crazy the past week has been and I just realized that it has been exactly one week since I arrived back in Haiti. That means it has been 1 week since I have seen my wife and daughter, 1 week since I began firming up plans for which houses […]
I started this blog while I was sitting in the Fort Lauderdale airport and I am now finishing it as I sit waiting at jury duty in Jacksonville. I was basically finished with it in Fort Lauderdale when the airport lost wifi. That is not that big of a deal, usually I just copy and […]
As you can imagine, the Christmas party was awesome! It was just a lot of fun and I cannot even explain to you how joyful the kids were. In fact, today’s blog will be almost all pictures of the party just so you can see some of their faces. Also, one more pretty funny story about […]
I know it is almost February, but we are having our All Things New Christmas party tomorrow! Now, before I get started with the rest of the blog, I want to make sure everyone is aware of the 2 fundraising initiatives we have recently begun as we target different audiences with each. A sponsorship drive. […]
Many of you have received the latest All Things New email informing you that we will no longer be staying on the Hope Rising campus. If you did not receive that email, please click here to read prior to reading the blog. Initially, we knew that our time at Hope Rising could be temporary. They […]
