Sherry and I are on the way down to Fort Myers, Florida, for our Love A Child board meeting. I’m so thankful for a wise board of men and women who have a passion to help the poor, especially the children. I'm very thankful to Sandra and Rad, who together run LAC with all our...
“Watching You from the Grandstand” Note: This scripture is for someone who has been discouraged about “all those things happening to you” and you can’t understand “why?” Ever wonder why you are having such a hard time?

It was a long time ago that we brought a little girl into our Orphanage named Roselyne. She lived in the mountains with her mother and father. Her father said that she had a problem with her legs and asked us to take her in and help. But as Roselyne grew taller, her legs straightened...
Good News Report! Do you remember little baby Kaïna Galette? She was only 6 months old when her grandmother, Mitou, brought her to our center. Her case was very serious.

The manual-operated sewing machines are perfect! Haitians "love to sew," and they are quite good at it! They can take a piece of scrap material and...
“Give Your Way Out” If anyone can say “they were poor and went through hard times,” Bobby and I can. We only had $40 saved up to get married, and my older brother, Bob, gave us $100 at our wedding. That was not much to start a married life, rent a place, etc. It seemed...
