Galatians 6:2,9-10–Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith. Dear Friends, Before saying anything else, I want to thank all of you for your continued prayers and support. Often, I stop and think of what the Lord has accomplished through Fairhaven over the years and each time I think of that, I also think of the hundreds of individuals He has used to...

1 Corinthians 13:13—And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. Dear Friends, As usual, things are going full blast here at Fairhaven. With ball practice and games plus end of school activities added to the normal routines, I assure you that Sissie and I are more than ready for sleep each night. I want to thank all of you who have been praying for Sissie and Mrs. Brown. Mrs, Brown is doing much better and Sissie seems a little better also. We are very thankful for this. Also, I want to update you all on the results of so many of your...

Dear Friends, On March 7th, we loaded our first container for Israel. As with all of our containers, it was the culmination of a lot of work and sacrifice on the parts of a many people. We thank the Lord for touching hearts and then for people responding and making it all possible. I had a couple of estimates of about 50 to 60 people here to help with the loading and I am so thankful for each person that came. To reiterate a little, this container was done in partnership with Harvest of Israel, a ministry of First Baptist Church, Morristown, Tenn. They have been working with The Joseph...

Dear Friends, Just a brief letter to let you know that, the Lord willing, we will be loading the container for Israel next Saturday, March 7th. We thank the Lord for the privilege that He has allowed us to be a part of being a small blessing to Israel. As usual, we will have breakfast at 7:30 and try to start loading about 8. After we finish loading, and have prayed over the container, we are inviting all of you to meet with us in the chapel. We will have Greg and Jodie Robinson, who work for/with Harvest of Israel, the ministry in Israel to which this container will be delivered. They will...

Psalm 37:4-5 4 Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.5 Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. Dear Friends, Just a note to thank so many of you for sharing your Christmas with our children and making it so special for them. I am only attaching 1 picture of each child, but, as I just told someone, if I was to attach 100 pictures of each one, it would not describe the excitement here on Christmas morning! No words can convey our appreciation to you for making this possible. As we start a new year, and the...

Dear Friends, The Lord blessed us with the loading of Romania container number 73 on November 8th. We praise Him for working through so many in order to make this possible. His faithfulness never ceases to amaze me. It is my prayer that as we celebrate the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, we will constantly remind ourselves of the blessings that our Lord has chosen to bestow upon us. That we will not take them for granted, but be open to share our blessings with others, whether it is locally, or halfway around the world. As those who have traveled to many other countries will tell you,...
