Haynes Family New Prayer Card Pic

Haynes Family - Left to Right - Clarke, Justine, Claudia, Chloe, Claire, Harrison

 I'm so happy to report that we heard of a company from another missionary who said that this company does prayer cards for free for missionaries! After contacting them, they replied that they still do and told us all the details of how to go about getting them started. So now, we have a new prayer card coming and the Lord provided it for us at no cost! This was such a blessing to receive. So please pray for that process...and if you know of any other missionaries that need this blessing as well, please give them our info and we will be glad to direct them to the right place!

The Lord has laid a "thought" on my heart to share with you all, after He convicted me with it. 
1 Corinthians 6:19,20 are well known verses and are often used with the focus in reference to taking care of 
your body and not doing things which would bring shame to the Lord or not putting things in your body which would harm you (boy, we could spend alot of time on that point! Like too much dessert, cokes, chemical laden foods, etc. not just drugs and alcohol) Altar call!!!
Anyway, the part of the verse that ministered to me this week was...
What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
These were my mom's life verses, so I know them well and have heard them often. But sometimes just putting a different emphasis on a verse can change everything for you. So here's the big question, can your spirit glorify God? How's your spirit doing? Is it bitter, self-righteous, envious, complaining? Only you know...but, we often focus our attention to doing and being the part on the outside, which is good, but let's turn the focus inward too as that is what God says He cares about the most!
1 Samuel 16:7 
...for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart. 
 I hope that you will join me in taking inventory of your spirit. Can the status of your spirit right now bring glory to God? If not, take a moment now to do some spring cleaning in your heart!

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 ...

One Day At A Time

I wanted to send you this poem today, and I remember it sitting on my mother's desk for many years before she died. She was always encouraged by this poem and I hope you will be encouraged with its truths along with me... "One Day at a Time" One day at a time, with its failures and fears, With its hurts and mistakes, with its weakness and tears, With its portion of pain and its burden of care; One day at a time we must meet and must bear. One day at a time to be patient and strong, To be calm under trial and sweet under wrong; Then its toiling shall pass and its sorrow shall cease; It shall darken and die, and the night shall bring peace. One day at a time - but the day is so long, And the heart is not brave, and soul is not strong, O Thou pitiful Christ, be Thou near all the way; Give courage and patience and strength  for the day. Swift cometh His answer, so clear and so sweet; "Yea, I will be with thee, thy troubles to m...

Haynes Family Prayer Letter - October 2018

Image
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.  T...
