Shoebox Drive 2018

It’s hard to believe that it is already July! The 2018 Christmas Shoebox Drive is quickly approaching, and we have some exciting news to share. This year, we are starting something new. […]

Writing to Your Child

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen a New Missions student show up for a sponsor visit holding a photo or letter in his hand from their sponsor. […]

July News Update

More Fifth Birthdays

The air was full of expectation, like the night before Christmas, as the little children sat tightly together in perfect silence with their eyes wide open and their smiles stretching across their faces. […]

Like Father, Like Son

On the Leogane Plain in Haiti, Pastor Richard Gay has served God for 25 years as pastor and school director at the New Missions Academy in Masson. When we were at his school a few weeks ago, he said to me, “This is my son”—with a smile reminding me of God the Father to His son, Jesus (“I am well-pleased”). […]

God, Change Me Too

As part of her presentation to the youth group at Cielo Vista Church in El Paso, Texas, 16-year-old Gaby shared the following: “I thought I shouldn’t go on this mission trip because I wasn’t good enough. Little did I know the phrase ‘you’re not good enough’ was just a lie that Satan was trying to put in my head.” She had just returned from Haiti, where one of her dreams was to meet Marriana Charles—the girl her family sponsors through New Missions. […]

Come to Haiti

Hope for Little Kids

At our preschools in the Dominican Republic, every school day starts with praying, singing Christian songs, and reading Bible stories. The children follow a routine each day and learn to socialize with other children, share, obey, and respect their elders and others.

Teachers Teaching Jesus

The focus and priority of New Missions is to preach the Gospel. In that context, we often find ourselves in ministries such as education and healthcare—to express the full Gospel of Jesus Christ. Education is one of our most successful means to see children come to hear and to know Jesus as their Savior.

Lessons from Mom

For as long as I can remember, my mother has been known as a “mother to many” besides her own children. She even introduces other people as her sons and daughters. I am honored to share my mom with the world. More importantly, I am grateful for how many love my mom, too.

Classroom Desks

“Game changer” may not be a word one normally uses to describe a school desk or bench, but in Haiti it really is! “Made in Haiti” (not Made in China) is what should be printed on our classroom desks. Every desk is 100% Haitian made.

Partner with Moms

When carrying out mission work, we often seek long-term solutions to help the people we serve. Spiritual darkness. Poverty. Illiteracy. Unemployment. Disease. Since 1983, we have pursued Christ-centric solutions to these big problems facing the poorest of the poor in the Western Hemisphere.

Church services began in May 2017 in Los Castillos, Dominican Republic. We have seen the impact the church and school is having on our students and their families. Not long ago, a fight broke out between two families in Redemption village, where our school is currently located and most of the children live. [...]

Complete Deliverance

All of us need a complete deliverance in our lives from anything holding us down. I believe some Christians are content with a partial deliverance. They are not fully walking in victory. [...]

Now, I'm a Pastor

Children were lined up to receive their shoebox gifts. On this special day, the person passing out these gifts was their pastor and school director, Mario Bijou. When he looked into their eyes, he could see himself. He, too, was once a student at New Missions. [...]
