A lot has happened since my last post. Check out below what we are working on!
"Under the Lord's leading, we have recently returned from a trip to the Dominican Republic, where there are nearly 1 million Haitian refugees. The level of poverty in most of these communities is even worse than in Haiti, because they are heavily discriminated against and not many people are helping them. In June, we will send our five older kids to an intense 4-6 months of language and missionary training in Nicaragua. Here, they will learn English, Spanish, Bible, and life skills. They will spend 4 days a week in school, and two days in hands-on ministry in surrounding communities. They will be taught under the guidance of Farrell Burton and Steve Horne, and will be enrolled in a ministry and Christian language school. Upon completion, the five young adults will graduate with the ability to speak 3 languages - Spanish, English and Creole- as well as have a grasp of the Bible and ministry training. After completing this intense training, they will return to these Haitian communities in the Dominican Republic along with us, to minister to the people there. They are all very excited about this opportunity...as are we!"

We are so excited for the year 2011 and what God has in store for us in Haiti. Please take the time to read about what is going on with P127 Haiti. May God bless you today!
Become a Monthly Sponsor
Here is a way to help us out and make a huge difference in the life of a child. We have recently finished our second level and have plans to take in some more children into our home. We need more monthly sponsors to make this possible.
We have a goal of 20 new sponsors in February. This is a big goal for our ministry and we realize we can't do it unless God provides...and we know He can! Would you consider becoming a monthly sponsor of P127 Haiti? With a $30 a month suggested donation, you will help provide food, clothing, a Christian home, school, and caretakers to a child in need. If you can't sponsor $30 a month, any monthly amount would be a big help. For details please visit project127-haiti.com and click on Projects, then Sponsorship.
Want Us to Come to Your Church or Group?
Maybe your church would like to become more involved in international missions. If so, we would love to come and speak to you on a Sunday morning, night, or Wednesday night. It would be an honor for us to come and share about Haiti and what the Lord is doing there. We could provide information about Haiti, our ministry, what we do in Haiti, and how you can be involved. Send an email to steve@project127.org and we can get something scheduled.
Want to Bring Your Group on a Mission Trip?
Almost nothing will have an impact on your life like taking an international mission trip will. We would love for you to experience that with us. You will get a chance to be Jesus to the people of Haiti, while getting a huge blessing in return. Come experience a week packed full of incredible missions opportunities. We still have several weeks available during the late spring and summer of 2011 that we could reserve for your church group. Contact us today if you would be interested in putting together a group from your church and bringing them to Haiti.
Thank you so much for your continued prayers and support. Let's change Haiti for Jesus in 2011.
Serving Christ in Haiti,

November 2010
I just returned from Haiti with a small team of pastors and leaders. We hadn't planned it this way, but we were able to be there during Hurricane Tomas. We spent a lot of time in prayer for our children, and for the rest of Haiti, that the storm would not do much damage. According to the original projections from the storm, Aquin was set to be in the direct path of the eye of Tomas but thankfully it passed well west of Aquin. It started raining on Wednesday night and rained on and off through the night, all day Thursday and Thursday night, and throughout the day Friday. There was a lot of flooding near the children's home and elsewhere, but thankfully, we suffered no real damage. We saw first hand the power of prayer and how the damage was very minimal throughout Haiti, compared with what the projections were. Praise the Lord! Please watch some of the videos I took on my recent trip.

Missions Trip Update
Man, what a great trip we had over the past week in Haiti. Sorry for not posting any updates while we were there, but I tried several times and the internet service failed! Welcome to a foreign country! Thank you all so much for your prayers while we were gone. We definitely felt God's protection.
I have taken a lot of missions teams to Haiti, and I will say that this was one of the best teams yet. And no, I don't say that after every group. We had a team of 18 people, of which 10 were from Central Baptist in Deer Park, Texas, and the other 8 were from various churches in the Charlotte, NC area. Everyone in the group had great attitudes and was very open to the different types of ministry we did while there. It was awesome to see God work in the lives of everyone in the group.
We flew to Haiti on Monday and spent the night in Port au Prince. On Tuesday, we got up and drove the 4 hour trip to Aquin. The group went to the children's home to see the kids, while I went out and bought paint and food for the Friday ministry day. On Wednesday, part of the group painted the upstairs of the house, while the rest of the group sorted the food and toys for Friday. Thursday, part of the group went to the mountain village of Leje for a service, and part of the group went to the island village of Kay Romier for a service. When we met back up in Aquin, we went down to the local soccer field and schooled by some Haitian kids. Friday, we went back to the villages, switching group locations and passed out food bags to all the families represented in the villages. We also sat around and had a time of fellowship with all the people. Friday night brought more soccer and getting our tails kicked again! Saturday was a much needed day of relaxation and fun at the beach with our kids, followed by a great church service that night. On Sunday, we headed back to Port au Prince, and flew home Monday. A special thanks goes out to the everyone in the group for making it awesome!
All the kids are doing great and we are seeing some of them step up into leadership positions. I am so proud of all of them, especially Fabienne and Fito as they set Godly examples for the younger kids. The second level is almost finished. Since we finished the painting, we can now proceed with finishing the floors and windows. We are also still working on getting our well drilling machine modified and sent to Haiti in the next few months. We are really excited about this area of ministry as well. Check out www.project127-haiti.com to see how you can be involved!

Missions Team
Hey everyone. I just wanted to give a quick post as I finish packing for our next trip. We will be leaving on Monday morning, July 26th for a week long mission trip to Aquin, Haiti. There will be a team of 18 going of which 8 are from the Charlotte area and 10 are from Deer Park, Texas. We are really excited to be taking this group which will have many first timers going to Haiti. Please pray for our safety as we travel and minister in Haiti. Also, pray that we will be effective in doing what the Lord has laid out for us to do. Keep praying, and I"ll post again the first chance I get!
God bless you all,
Steve

Haiti Summer Update
I hope this message finds all of you well. We have been very busy here at Project 127 Haiti. With groups coming to Haiti and planning for the fall, this is one of our busiest times of the year. We are very excited about what the Lord is doing through us and with our ministry in Haiti.
We had a missions team from NC and GA with us in Haiti last week. In spite of all the rain from the tropical storm, we were able to get a lot accomplished while the group was there. We spent three days painting, scraping, and more painting at the children's home and making it beautiful. It was great to see all of our Haitian kids pitch in and help us paint as well. It was also a huge blessing to us and them to be able to spend some time with them. We also traveled by boat to the island of Gros Cayes, just off the coast of Aquin. While there we held a big evangelistic service with puppets, testimonies, songs, and a great message from Pastor Keith Beatty. We were also able to pass out some much appreciated items to the people in the little village there. We are also preparing for a team from NC and TX that will be coming down to Haiti on July 26th. We are really excited about this trip as well.
Our well drilling machine is almost completed and should be delivered to us in NC by next weekend. When we get it in NC, we will drill a few test wells and familiarize ourselves with it before we ship it to Haiti. We are working on several different avenues that will allow us to get it to Haiti in the next few months. We are really excited to see how God will use the gift of clean water to further His Kingdom in Haiti. Please continue to be in prayer with us about this. We will also be traveling to a Water Summit Meeting on July 12th in Hickory, NC. There will be many different people from well drillers, to water purification companies represented at this meeting. We are excited about the possibilities and the people we will meet there.
We just added some more pictures of our trip to our facebook account. If you are on facebook, join the group Project 127 Haiti and check out all of the pictures.
Thank you so much for all your prayers and concerns about the people of Haiti.
God bless you,
