I know that many of you who keep up with All Things New are wondering what is going on with the new truck we are hoping to purchase soon. Yesterday was the last day for donations and today we are in the process of seeing where we are and what our next step should be. […]
Today, April 30, is the last day we are taking truck donations! We plan on regrouping after today and seeing where we are and what our plan is moving forward. If you have missed any of our latest truck blogs, just click here, here, or here to read all about our plan for the purchase. […]
Over the next few weeks, we are going to try a new series of blogs called “Teaching Tuesday.” Our plan is to test it out for a while, and if it seems to be going well we will make it a part of our regular blog series. I (Matt) served in different pastoral capacities within […]
You can find a cup of coffee on a Sunday morning in almost every Christian Church in America. There are different flavors, different brews, different brands, different presentations, and even different types of cups in which the coffee can be served, but you can almost always find a cup of coffee no matter the church.

In Case You Thought Our Biggest Worry This Week Was The Truck… When I tell you there is never a dull moment here in Haiti I truly mean there is NEVER a dull moment. We have been sharing our need for a new truck but here is what has been happening here in Haiti this […]
If you read Jessica’s post from yesterday (click here if you missed it) then you saw how wonderful our black truck has been over the past 4+ years. We purchased it used in January 2014 (it is a 2011) and we have put quite a few miles (or kilometers) on it since. Today, however, I […]
It is time to put our black truck to rest. It has been tried and true (actually not really….it’s broken down multiple times) for many years now but its time has come to an end. We are in desperate need of a new truck here in Haiti and starting today are actively raising funds for […]
Elijah is 14 months and just started walking this past week here in Haiti. To say it has been a collective effort here is an understatement. Several of our kids here made it their personal mission to teach him to walk. We had 3 back to back groups of Americans and each one had different […]
Yesterday (Wednesday) we woke up ready to continue our quest of figuring out “normal” life here in Haiti with 2 babies and an orphanage. Our teams left this past Saturday (click here to read about these great groups) and we took a couple of days to recoup, so we are just getting back to our […]
Since we arrived back in Haiti, it has been a real whirlwind for us down here. We came down on March 25 and had our first team from Christ’s Church in Jacksonville from March 28 to March 31 (a team of 9), our second team from Clearview Chapel in LaGrange from March 31 to April […]
Disclaimer: This blog was supposed to be posted yesterday, but a combination of a busyness with a team here and slow internet prevented that from happening! Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen. Have you ever read something, seen something on television, or heard someone say […]
