February Answers to Prayer I Have to Share

For those of you who have been praying about my computer that crashed and all the files that I was concerned about losing, thank you so much! Good news is, that my brother was able to randomly try another method to retrieve the files while he was helping my husband with a project, and it worked!!!
God was so good to answer that prayer for me in His time. Just like my last post about learning patience, I had to wait about 3 months for the Lord to work that out for me. It might not sound like a long time, but when you are the one going through the trial, time is very slow! 
Harrison and I know that God is working on our prayer requests that we bring before Him, and the challenge for us is to watch and wait. 
We are still in need of a van, because we currently cannot all ride in the same car together now that Claudia is born. We have only one car that we are borrowing right now and currently no finances for a van. But we know that somehow, God can work this out for us and give us the transportation we need. Putting your prayer requests out in front of people can be a very humbling experience but yet, it's worth it so "that others can see my life and know that God makes no mistakes" and also to be able to praise Him together as He answers prayers.
If you have something that you need prayer for, please don't hesitate to ask! I know I ask you all to pray for us and our needs, so in return, we are here for you. 
Deputation plans are well under way (which is also why we need a van) and we are praying for meetings to start building up. We are excited to see what the Lord is going to do with this.
Claudia is doing very well and we are all enjoying the newest member of the family! She is a very sweet baby and I'm so thankful for this little life that has been entrusted to us. 
Oh! Harrison also got the email address today to the man who he worked for in Italy and became dear friends with. So he is very excited to correspond with him now as they both have been trying to email each other over the past months, but to no avail. So the Lord worked it out for them and we appreciate your prayers for Marco and his family.

Haynes Family Prayer Letter - October 2018

October 2018 Dear Supporting Churches and Friends, Got some good news to report in from this past month.  First, I will tell you about a great project which Justine is doing  for two orphanages in Rome. A while back, somebody gifted Justine about 100 skeins of yarn (that’s one of those yarn thingies for all you guys out there).  Justine was praying about using the yarn to make something on a large scale for a group of people, but also using it to get the Gospel of our Lord Jesus to that specific group .  One of Justine’s heroes is Dorcas because she made garments for the poor as her ministry, which ultimately brought Glory to God when Peter raised her from the dead in Acts 9.  Justine got in touch with an orphanage in Rome which currently has 80 kids living there. Justine explained everything to the director and they were THRILLED about handmade scarves and gave us the “green light” to send everything.  The director even told us to m

Senses Secured

RISE AND SHINE FOR JESUS! By Pam Iannello (my late mother) "Senses Secured" Proverbs 7:1-5 (KJV) My son, keep my words , and lay up my commandments with thee. [2] Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye . [3] Bind them upon thy fingers , write them upon the table of thine heart . [4] Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman : [5] That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words . As I studied this portion of scripture I was heavily struck with the importance of having our senses saturated with the Word of God. You see, sexual sin often begins with unguarded eyes, hands, and hearts… And knowing that the rest of this chapter vividly deals with the unhealthy situation that occurred between a simple young man and a strange woman, it is no wonder that the Lord opens the story with strong scriptural advice! Truly, it is a perfect text to teach young

Self Discovery

Rise and Shine for Jesus! \O/ By Pam Iannello (my late mother) "Self Discovery" Today there is so much emphasis on self! Self-esteem and self-discovery are two highly discussed topics among the so-called "experts" of the world. People actually believe that if you don't put self first, it's unwise and unsafe. Supposedly, the more you are consumed with self, the stronger you are as a person. Has anybody given any thought as to whether or not self-centeredness is dangerous? Has anybody stopped to consider where an obsession with self would lead you?? Let's see what the real Expert on self would tell us as we turn to the Word of God for a right understanding... Psalm 100:3 (KJV) Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. I love the simplicity of the Word of God! The Bible clearly states that God is our Creator; we did not create ourselve
