  • ATN Moving Forward: Discipleship

    If you missed the last 3 vision casting blogs, please take the time to read them by clicking here. Today I will begin casting a vision for a new area of ministry for All Things New: Discipleship.  If you have followed us recently then you know that we have a heart for this new ministry […]
  • ATN Moving Forward: Our Employees

    If you missed the last 2 vision casting blogs, please take the time to read them by clicking here. When it comes to our employees, our vision is simple and can be summed up as follows: Make sure we can keep each of the employees we have. Hire a few more to round out our […]
  • ATN Moving Forward: Our Organization

    Click here if you missed our latest vision casting blog. Today’s vision casting blog will describe one of the most important changes we are making to All Things New in 2017 and beyond.  It is a more subtle change in many ways but in the long run could be very important for our children and […]
  • ATN Moving Forward: Our Kids

    Today we will begin our vision casting series that we have, very originally, entitled “ATN Moving Forward.”  We will focus on 6 specific aspects of our ministry and try to look forward into both the near and not-so-near future of each of these areas.  It only makes sense to start with the reason that All […]
  • Politics

    Tomorrow we will begin the All Things New vision casting series of blogs.  Our plan is to split this vision casting into 6 different blogs with each one casting the vision for a different aspect of ministry.  Because we believe this series is very important for our ministry moving forward, each vision casting blog will […]
  • Meet Elijah

    I know it has been a while since our last blog, but we have been a little busy these past few weeks.  As you may have already heard, Elijah was born Feb 3 at 9:22am, weighed 7lbs 11oz, and was 21 inches long.  I can’t even describe what it was like meeting him for the […]
  • Whose Kingdom are We Building?

    This is the other blog I wanted to write prior to beginning our vision casting series. I have written about a similar topic before in a previous blog but this idea keeps coming up for different reasons and at different times. The question is: “Whose Kingdom Are We Building?” You could answer this question in […]
  • Inward or Outward?

    Over the next few days (unless of course Elijah comes) we are going to be sharing pictures, posting blogs, and trying to get some organizational work accomplished for All Things New.  The main focus of our blogs will be to cast vision for 2017 for our organization so that everyone connected with All Things New […]
  • Leaving Tomorrow

    Tomorrow is coming much more quickly than we anticipated. I know that sentence does not make a lot of sense, but stay with me for a little while and you will understand what I mean. We will be leaving from Haiti at 12:51 and arriving in Jacksonville at 6:51 tomorrow evening after having been in […]
  • They’re Just Kids

    One of the most difficult things about running a ministry that both takes care of children and relies on fundraising is that it can be easy to forget that our kids are just that…Kids. They are not a project, they are not a charity, and they are not supposed to be perfect…They are supposed to […]
  • The Christmas Party

    This is the follow-up to our most recent blog about our Christmas Party. It was an absolute blast. The party went from 2:00 to about 7:00 and it was just a great celebration. I need to apologize to anyone within a ½ mile radius of the kids’ house because it was really loud, but that […]
  • 2 Recent Theological Discussions

    Today is our big Christmas Party for our kids and staff, and it is going to be our biggest Christmas party yet. We are expecting between 70-90 people, we have hired someone who is bringing speakers that are way to big for the space, and there is going to be a lot of food. Our […]
