Missions in December 2014

December 11, 2014

We are traveling back to the States Dec. 13th to be available for my paperwork interview – hopefully within the next couple months. This will allow us to stay in Haiti for our Bible curriculum development project for longer stretches at a time. But even today, God is answering prayer for more laborers in the […]

Luggage in February 2013

February 7, 2013

PTL that all our luggage arrived: with us, and with no customs fees! First we were over-weight for the amount of luggage we had told the Missionary Flights International (MFI) that we would be needing to take to Haiti. We had packed all night long, Monday January 28 to 29th. Then we drove a U-Haul […]

Flying January 31 2013

January 11, 2013

We fly to Haiti, this month! We start by driving from Alabama on the 29th, to take our 30 or more trunks & totes by U-Haul to the Missionary Flights International (MFI) center in Florida. They will fly us to Port-au-Prince on the 31st. The Baptist Haiti Mission complex, where we will be living and […]

which summit in July 2012

July 12, 2012

We’re almost to the top of this Grade Two mountain! By sending two lessons back & forth to Haiti per day, we hope to get this first draft of the Teachers’ textbook finished by the end of July. There will still be several summits to climb after that, including another proof-reading by a Haitian professional […]

Mountain meanings for June 2012

June 4, 2012

« Dèyè mòn gen mòn. » = “Behind mountains there are mountains.” = There’s a hidden meaning to what is being said. A book we picked up in Haiti is called Hidden Meanings (Truth and Secrets in Haiti’s Creole Proverbs). Our own Haiti project gives us another meaning to the above proverb: when we think […]

Seconds in March 2012

March 8, 2012

Who’s on second? Well, we are now working on our Second set of 100 pictures for the Firm Foundation Home School curriculum. After Martha collects Bible pictures that might suit the stories in the curriculum, several other missionaries help me critique the content for ideas to give to the artists who will be drawing […]

Pictures in February 2012

February 9, 2012

Three (300) hundred pictures? As if writing seventy 10-page lessons for each grade isn’t enough… Martha is now helping me collect 300 picture samples from which we can get illustrations for these Bible curriculums. Some of these pictures will become coloring pages for primary school children. Others will become the “pictures say 1000 words” that […]

December 5, 2011

Another Project Finished! The 350-page teachers’ manual for Grade One Bible lessons is completed! It is being printed by the Baptist Haiti Mission, for use in their 330 schools in northern Haiti. This month I will start working on planning the lesson lay-out for their Grade Two Bible lessons. Then in January, Lord willing, I […]

QUESTIONS in November 2011

November 3, 2011

Questions, but not questioning God! It hardly seems possible that we had packed up to move to Florida a year ago, now, but here we are, still serving from Alabama. We do keep busy working on our “long-distance” grade one Bible lessons project for Haiti. We praise the Lord that in October, we found some […]

Excitement in October 2011

October 3, 2011

A new church is born!! Just today, as I write this (Oct.1st), we have heard that a new body of believers was started this weekend among another previously-unreached people group. This was in Papua New Guinea, among the Siar tribe. Another piece to the Revelations 5:9 puzzle is coming together! [For more details click on […]
