Promoting From Within

Once a student himself, Jameson Verdry is now a teacher at the New Missions school in Concrab, Haiti. His son, Kervenson, attends the same school in Concrab. Valliere Eslene has a similar story as today her son attends school where she is a school teacher. […]

Generosity Changes Lives

“What’s in it for me?” WIIFM is the most popular radio station individuals tune in to daily, but it drives selfishness. However, when we surrender our lives to Christ, we see the world through a new lens of helping and serving others. […]

Leaders United

We recently organized a mini retreat for the directors and assistant directors of our schools, churches, and health center. We hosted the event in the beautiful mountains of the Dominican Republic—which allowed our leaders to disconnect for the day and be refreshed and renewed. […]

Do You Go to Church?

When I was 17 years old, I did not want to go to church. I believe my father told my mother to tell me, “If you do not go to church…you can leave the house.” Well, I took fast notice of my nice bedroom and my mother’s good cooking and decided to keep going to church. […]

Focus on Young Graduates 

At the end of each school year, we celebrate our graduating class as well as the students finishing kindergarten and sixth grade. These celebrations are truly important, as most families can’t afford birthday parties or festivities for the holidays. […]

Children Are Our Future!

Parents set an example to influence children into what they will become. My parents loved missions. Our Sunday dinner table was often graced with visiting missionaries. Our home was open to them even if they had experienced recent diseases. […]

Financial Freedom Seminar

A short time ago, we were able to host a special finance seminar for some of our employees in the Dominican Republic. We decided to host this class because we wanted to help them succeed in their lives and learn how to manage their money. […]

Celebrating Children's Day

The month of June gives us the special celebration of Children’s Day. We are blessed to see many of our mission leaders have their sons and daughters working with them. This is a work that can’t be created with concrete blocks. […]

Fruit of our Labor

We love seeing our graduates fulfilling different callings in their lives. When we observe them working, serving, or preaching we are witnessing the fruit of New Missions...thanks to Godʼs blessings. […]

Planting Churches

What do you need to plant a church? You need people called by God. “I learned John 3:16 as a child at New Missions,” Pastor Alix told me as we enjoyed lunch together. Now a church planter in Mount Dora, Florida, Alix Hilaire shared how he once sat under a mango tree as a young teenager in Haiti and told God, “I will serve you the rest of my life.” […]

Families At Church

Graduates of New Missions are getting married and raising their families to walk in faith together. This is a change in history for the country of Haiti, where men would typically have children from multiple women and not marry. The story of Gregory Doirin and Sonya (who met at church) is one of faith, hope, and love. […]

Time to Shine

Recently, some of our high school boys in the DR had the opportunity to compete in a local basketball competition. Prior to this competition, we did not have a formal basketball team at the school, so the boys had to work extra hard to learn to play together as a team. […]

Spiritual War

Today, there is a battle raging for souls everywhere. However, the urgency to fight for the saving of those souls is paramount during these times. We are watching physical wars, yet the greater fight is spiritual and our role in God’s army is essential to His Gospel being proclaimed. […]

Bible College Students

I’ve heard my husband Charlie say that during the earliest days of the mission he used to wonder how the church, full of mainly children, would take root. Amazingly, it did! Obed St. Vil, an assistant pastor in our Flon church, says his church is also primarily children. […]

Encouragement Needed

1 Thessalonians 5:11 says, “Encourage one another and build each other up…” Each of us needs to both give and receive encouragement. The stereotypical Third World school tends to use more punishment than reward to improve the students’ behavior and performance. […]

A Teacher's Lasting Impact

This school year, I have had the privilege to teach an advanced English class in our high school. Through this experience, I have been reminded of just how important and difficult being a teacher can be! […]
