Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind & reaching forward to those things which are ahead
Ph 3:13
Hard to believe, 2018 is over & a New Year has begun; we wish you a marvelous & miraculous 2019 full of answered prayers & testimony of His presence in your life & your family’s.
 
We began last year as every year with a short fast & prayer for direction & wisdom, then we headed to Whitesburg Baptist for an inspiring, energizing mission conference. Our hostess Dawn Shurden graciously saw to our needs & desires including honey & herbal teas for Yvonne, some TJMaxx shopping; & thanks to the easy schedule orchestrated by Mission Director John Crocker; we took a nap every afternoon of the three day event. Evenings included the mission centered challenge preached by Dr. Paige Patterson , then President of Southwestern Seminary.
 
During those three days of rest & recharge, Dawn tearfully told us of her stomach cancer diagnosis. We prayed with & for her; though her faith was strong Dawn unexpectedly succumbed the first week of December 2018; we are deeply grieved, but assured we will see her again in heaven.

Dr. Patterson also suffered attack, spiritual not physical & resigned his position; he has stayed in touch & promises to visit Haiti to “hunt for souls.”
 
Each month of 2018 we filmed more of Haiti’s beauty & produced more Creole Christian TV shows to draw Haitians to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Every weekday morning at 7:00AM, I held my LIVE Facebook Timeline devotion that draws as many at 10,000 daily views; weekends Yvonne & I appear together at 9:00AM .

Most of the devotion is in English; you are invited to join us any morning you need prayer. Many of our viewers testify of answered prayer for emotions, finances, health & salvations.
 
Midway through 2018, work on a church building for Hurricane Matthew survivors found living in two caves began; the foundation & exterior walls are completed; we need $20,000 to build the roof, doors, pulpit & pews . Three volunteers have promised to work on it later this month, but we need your financial help to purchase materials.
 
To give to the church roof or support us monthly use this link Donate Here ; it is secure & immediately available . Please pray & ask God what part you should take in helping us move forward in 2019 & not look back at the heartache & accomplishments of 2018. We pray the same for you in 2019.
