Author This Saturday 27 people from Durham Evangelical Church (www.Durhame.org ) is sponsoring a trip to serve in Haiti. I have the privilege to participate in the construction portion of the mission outreach. My teenage (17) daughter is also attending the trip and will be working with the children’s program. Our two teams have partnered with two local (NH/MA) organizations that are based in the US.
Partners in Development (PID) and Heart-line Ministries have been successfully working in Haiti for over 20 years. While there, we will be working toward finishing the Medical Center that provides basic health care and checkups for many Haitians. We will also be working with children’s programs serving the orphanage and working at the English Camp.
Several of our goals are to finish 2 of the exam rooms and get them to a usable state by future missionaries. In addition we will be working to finish dwellings for PID partners and possibly build new dwellings. The second group will be working with Heart-Line in/around the orphanage providing English teaching.
We have several needs in relation to this trip but most importantly is prayer support for safety, effective ministry and that God will use this trip to grow each of us. There is a list of material needs on our website though many of the goals are time sensitive since we are leaving this weekend but others are ongoing. Although there were several fund raisers to support the trip there are always financial implications for the people involved.
We realize you may not be able to support our trip financial or through material domination , but want to thank you for considering it and most importantly for your continued prayers.
I hope to blog updates as time allows so keep an eye out for new posts.. or subscribe to the feed and you’ll always be in the know.
While you are celebrating your independence this weekend please take a moment to pray for those that don’t have such a privilege..

As I travel I’ve wanted the ability to post blog updates without having to lug out my laptop, connect to the internet etc.. I knew that I could use the email to blog function built into wordpress. Then all I’d need to do is send an email from my blackberry.
However I’m heading out on a mission trip this week with 27 people from our church and I wanted to allow certain people to post entries without all the baloney of the laptops, internet, etc.. The built-in wordpress plugin limited me to just one user, and I wanted to have multiple users post to the blog since there are a bunch of us going on this trip. I also wanted to insure that not just anyone could post incase somehow the posting email address got spammed.
I came across the Postie Plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/postie/
There are many features this plugin offers.. like the ability to add images to posts as well as video.
But the best feature was the limiting of posting by email addresses.. this would cover the spammers as well as only allowing certain people to post..
The 1st test was successful… and now I’m testing the ability to add images, links and filtering out email footers
As the Dover FreeCycle group owner I thought i would share some great news about our site…
Today is the 5 year anniversary of Dover, NH FreeCycle, with over 3700 members serving the seacoast community and over 27,000r 27,000

I couldn’t have imagined our small group of Dover residents would have evolved into the Freecycle it is today. Since it’s inception the FreeCycle Network has spread to over 85 countries, where there are thousands of local groups representing millions of members and Dover’s group is a part of keeping over 500 tons a day out of landfills! If you haven’t taken the time to read the history jump on over to the main FreeCycle site and have a read.
For you statisticians out there here are a few numbers for you.
Messages to date: 27,563
Average Yearly
2005: 332 (not bad for 7 months)
2006: 645
2007: 689
2008: 683
2009: 556
5 year Avg: 581
These are some awesome numbers! You all ROCK! If you didn’t realize this yet all messages, members and the like are moderated by only 2 volunteers besides myself, a though job for such a large amount of work given we all have jobs, lives and other pastimes. So remember to thank your moderators by emailing them FreecycleDoverNH-owner@yahoogroups.com
So Dover FreeCycle members I challenge you to RAID YOUR GARAGE, BASEMENT, ATTIC, whatever you can find to pass along to others and KEEP STUFF OUT OF LANDFILLS.
Keep Up the Good work and Thank you for using FreecycleDoverNH Freecycle.
will you stand and fight with us?
today the enemy of God is at work in my life. he is coming at me in all directions. The anguish, pain and angst I feel swelling inside me is causing me to doubt, fear and question everything I do. I understand that these fears are from him and his ability to twist the truth in my feeble mind. Though as I struggle through these times I know that my God is stronger than he.. for the power of the Holy Spirit dwells within me, as God promised sinners like me. His full armor will protect me when I stand a fight against the devils schemes! It is not my flesh that hurts but my soul he tries to overtake.. BUT! God’s belt of truth will help me to stand firm and rise up against the enemy. The shield of faith, though heavy to bear will protect me from the from the evil one and I will stand strong and pray in the face of my rulers with the sword of the Spirit as the word of God pours out in prayer. As I too am an ambassador in chains, pray that I may continue to run to prayer first so that I can declare the word of god fearlessly.
from Ephesians 6:10-20
