There is really nothing about sewing men’s dress pants that used to be fun for me. Honestly, I dreaded waist bands, cried over a few zipper installations, and welt pockets?! Really?! That was then. For three weeks I have awakened excited to dive into the next task. Determination is contagious. Hope is contagious. Love is […]
“Be patient, and when your opportunity comes, I encourage you to do it,” said Ofanise. We were enjoying an afternoon together with the Accolade for Saving Lives (ASL) program moms. Oflanise and 4 other moms had just completed their second week of sewing training and she wanted to share about her experience and encourage the […]
We at CLIMB think often of how God chose us to be his vessels. What have we done that could possibly merit such a privilege? Nothing! I was recently settling on that wonder for a moment longer than usual. I sat humbled in the knowledge that the same Jesus that was beaten, spit upon, hated, […]
Sunday’s message at church was around Matthew 25:31 – 46. It tells about Jesus’ return and the separation of people, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. One of our elders (also named Matthew) spent some time discussing the behavior of sheep vs goats. I couldn’t help my mind wandering to a unique […]

Thank you, New World Son, for “Learning To Be The Light”. If you aren’t familiar with this song, I strongly encourage you to listen. Three of us completed a week of work to prepare for the next eight weeks with a team at Accolade for Saving Lives and Tous Ensemble. It was a flurry of […]
Can you sit with me a spell? Can you take it all in? Land had been purchased by Accolade for Saving Lives shortly after Hurricane Matthew struck last fall. Prayers continued. In January of this year I stood on that ground with a team of faithful young servants. Goats that didn’t belong to us ate […]
Name one essential for school that is common across the globe, is useful even when class is not in session, and carries your prized possessions – BACKPACKS! Patchouko and I were ECSTATIC one day post-Hurricane Matthew as we walked through Dierre Fort. We stepped between crowded homes, ducked under damaged steel roofing, and heard. . […]
It was an extremely hot and muggy day, approximately 2 weeks after Hurricane Matthew blew through the south of Haiti in October, 2016. Patchouko and I were trekking through one of the neighborhoods served by Accolade for Saving Lives (ASL). Our objective when we set out this day was to assess damage to the ASL […]
