I hope this newsletter finds everyone happy, healthy, and blessed. Here we are in the final month of this year, it has been a hard and very confusing year, but with the mercy and grace of our savior, we made it!

The children in the Haitian Christian Education Center began making Christmas decorations for their Christmas tree, as you will see in the pictures they sure had a good time.  As other missionaries can tell you, donations are down and our supporters are finding it hard to continue some of the support, we are asking that for the month of December, please be in prayer for the school and it's hardships along with all the other missionaries who are trying to continue Gods plan for each one of their ministries.  I pray for many blessings for those of you who can and can't  continue to support us.

The children are looking forward to those of you are willing to step out into faith and answer the call of God to help them get a Christian education.  As you may know by now, our ministry, "Gabriel's Outreach", is hosting a mission trip beginning the 18th of March 2011, it will be one week long, we are planning VBS, painting, and construction, I would also like for some of you who are musical to help out and let's teach the Haitians to praise our Savior in the English Language.  If you have talents in guitar, keyboard, drums, and love to sing, please come and join us.  We would like to have some street evangelism for those who would like to help out with that.  Go to our Blog @thefeatsents.com and see the details for that trip, or call Earl at 814-806-3007, or call me at 814-853-1319.

I will be traveling to the Dominican Republic on Monday  the 13th, to finish up Gabriel's adoption, our residency is complete, so now we are headed to the capital to meet with C.O.N.A.N.I. (persons who handles adoptions) to get this final approval.  Be in prayer for all three of us as we continue to complete this project God has graciously given us.  Of course traveling mercy also, because of the weather.

I have had a hard time these last few weeks with the attitudes of different people, it seems like the Christmas season is effecting everyone, some of the nicest people had hardened there hearts towards other people, I have seen so much evil through the mouths of the community, I have been praying and asking God to show me what I need to share with everyone, here is where he led me, James 3:1-18, this chapter tells me what dangers we can create from using our tongues the wrong way, this is the Christmas season, we should be loving one another, we should be willing to help those in need, we should also be helping the widow and the poor, we should be celebrating the birth of Jesus, what he was created for and his plan he is carrying out for his father.  If we don't share with others the love of Jesus, how would we expect them to do the same.  In verse 18, his word tells us, "those of us who plant seeds of peace will gather what is right and good". How could we not want PEACE this Christmas season, share this with someone who don't know our savior, let's start changing the lives of people around us.

Until next month, I wish and pray for peace, love, and knowledge of Jesus!  I hope all of you have a wonderful holiday season and may the next year bring more people seeking to find out who,  JESUS IS!!!!!!!!!
