Adopted

For starters, I just want to thank the Lord from His grace and provision. He is mighty! He is my strength and I want to praise Him all of my days.

Secondly, is anyone else as excited about Audio A getting back together?! If so check this out! ----->

Audio Adrenaline - Kings and Queens (Exclusive Music Video Premiere) from audio-adrenaline on GodTube.


After watching this video, I checked out the Hands and Feet Project. I am definitely going to be looking more into this ministry for the future.

I can't believe my first trip is less than two weeks away. God is good. My first trip to Haiti is fully funded!

I am so blessed to be able to go back to Haiti again. This trip is very unique. This will be the first time I have ever been able to return to a place where I did mission work. The precious children at the Greta Center pricked my heart last year. They are all precious in the sight of God and I want nothing more for them to know they are not orphans through the love and grace of Jesus Christ.  If I could, I would bring everyone of them home with me. (One day I probably will bring one or two home...one day!)

If buses could fly...


This trip's focus will be one bringing some much needed supplies to several organizations in Haiti. Hannah Sterling, who I originally met in Haiti last year with Samaritan's Purse, contacted me about a month ago regarding this trip. After a year of praying for God to open a door for me to return to Haiti, he provided this opportunity to join Hannah for a brief trip as she prepares to move to Haiti to work with the Kore Timoun. We will be connecting with several organizations that she and I have both worked with. Our focus will be to supply has much help as possible during this short trip.

Continue to pray for me as I prepare for this trip and also for an opportunity to return next April.

Hannah also sells handmade jewelry to support her ministry. You can check out more about that at: The Paper Bag




We are NOT orphans anymore! We have been adopted. Of course the song, "Orphan" by Ronnie Freeman immediately comes to mind.


Romans 8: 14-17 says," All those led by God's Spirit are God's sons. For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father!" The Spirit Himself testifies together with our spirit that we are God's children, and if children, also heirs--heirs of God and coheirs with Christ--seeing that we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him."

God is good! He has blessed me so! Almost half way there! PTL!
