Hurricane Matthew Update

Today is the first full-day in the wake of hurricane Matthew hitting Haiti as a category 4 storm. Village paths have turned into rivers. It will take time for families to clean out of this mess.

Hurricane Matthew Hits Haiti

Early this morning, Charlie DeTellis called me with the first of several updates from our high school campus in Signeau, Haiti. Hurricane Matthew was making landfall. 

Hurricane Matthew

As Hurricane Matthew approaches Haiti, we are ready to respond. Our mission has staff on the ground and we are receiving updates from Charlie DeTellis, who is in Haiti with his wife, Rachel and son, Nathan.

Waiting for A School

This past summer, in the Dominican Republic, our visiting mission teams evangelized door to door in Los Castillos—sharing the Gospel and inviting the community to attend evangelistic events on the land where our church is being built. [...]

Christian Academy

What’s bigger than the gift of education? At our schools, we introduce our students to the love of Jesus and invite them to know God through a personal relationship with Jesus. [...]

Los Castillos Church

Right now, you have an opportunity to partner with us to plant and build a church in Los Castillos, Dominican Republic. To the glory of God, the land is already paid for. God provided miraculously! [...]

Love and Unity

Last month, my son Timothy called a meeting of our church pastors in Haiti. As the meeting began, I could sense their passion for worship and a covering of a sweet anointing—as in Psalm 133, “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious oil upon the head.” [...]

Plant A Church

On March 21, officially the first day of spring, a group of us stood with our contractor, Francesco Martin, to view the construction site of a church, school, and memorial garden in Los Castillos, Dominican Republic. [...]

School Desks and Church Benches

Throughout the year, our churches and schools receive new church benches and classroom desks.

Praying Kids

Teacher Training

On a Thursday afternoon from 2:00-4:00 p.m., our Concrab, Bire, Lassale, and Bord-Mer elementary school teachers and school directors came together for an educator seminar. I opened the seminar by teaching the history of New Missions, and shared how changing the life of a child is a spiritual work, not just a physical or intellectual work. [...]

Life's Journey

Each year writes its own story. Though I don’t know what your journey was in 2015, mine was full of both joy and sorrow. [...]

Celebrating 33 Years in Haiti

In March of 1982, we purchased five acres along the ocean in Haiti for about $7,000. On Jan. 6, 1983 we arrived in Haiti with five tents, a Coleman stove, a wheelbarrow, and as much luggage as American Airlines would allow us to take on the plane. The first night, we pitched our tents and started a campfire. [...]

Making More Room

Seven Haitian workers are involved in the fabrication and installation of benches for our churches. Our church pews are made either 10 or 14-feet long (the 10 foot benches are for our smaller churches). [...]
