An Open Letter to Everyone Who Gave to New Horizon Home Last Year

Dear generous friends,

I have just returned from a visit at New Horizon Home in Port-au-Prince, Haiti and I wanted to express appreciation to each of you who are so kind to give toward the ministry of Eastside Baptist Church and one of her international ministry outposts.

Your one time or ongoing contributions are carefully distributed and gratefully appreciated by Eastside Baptist Church and 33 girls at New Horizon Home in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.

You have been kind to give, you have been quick to respond, you are partners in an eternal weight of gospel work among these beautiful girls. For this I say “thank you.”

Enjoy some pictures of the new home, the faithful workers and the life-long impact you are making on these 33 girls. Thank you and may the Lord be blessed as you respond to his call upon your life.

For the Glory to God Alone!

Because they are Necessary, Use Words

This past week I’ve been back at New Horizon Home with our 33 girls. By the grace of God, I traveled with 7 other people from Twin Falls, and Boise, Idaho and Amarillo, Texas.

Jesus warns that once a follower puts his hand to the plow he must keep his eyes on the prize, not looking back with regret or doubt (“No one, after putting his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” Luke 9:62). Oh that God would find us fit for harvest work.

In addition to taking supplies to teach the girls to knit and weave, clothing, school supplies, medical supplies and nutritional items; we both took printed word (New Testament in Haitian Creole)  and spoke of the Gospel multiple times a day.

Following are a few pictures of the sojourners using words to speak of the glory of God and the necessary proclamation of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
