The tradition in Haiti is to stay up all night and have “soup Joumou” (pumpkin soup) to celebrate the coming New Year. This comes from when Haiti declared its independence from France in 1804. Joumou soup was a dish only for the ruling class of the French, who dominated Haiti, and the enslaved Haitians were...
“When every door is closed” and “when you’re down to zero,” that’s when God shows up! Mark 10:27 says, “With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.” We have been in some of those situations… down to “zero,” no money! Years ago, in Haiti, Bobby got run...
Here we have, left to right, Esther, Daniella, Widelene, and Yolanda! These are “just some” of our older “Love A Child” girls! They all love to go to church, they all love cooking, new dresses to share, new “hair-dos,” make-up, and “heels!” They all have dreams of going to college, but we do not have...
Yolanda has been with us since she was a baby! She has always been a great help to me; she is a "leader!" Yolanda always has been “my right hand!” There is always a notebook in her hand to write things down! She reminds me of “whose birthday is coming next," and “who passed in...

“Facing the Hard Stuff.” We all have to do it. Not everything will go easy every day, no matter how we pray, or give, or go, or do. This is real life. We all love to do the nice things… visit the sick, take food to the hungry, comfort or pray for someone. But each...
We are SO BLESSED to have a wonderful Malnutrition Clinic, and we are thankful to Joyce Meyer Ministries — Hand of Hope for sponsoring the building of this wonderful outreach, saving little lives! We are constantly receiving a “steady stream” of poor Haitian mothers, coming with their starving children to our Malnutrition Clinic! The majority of these babies are...
“The Spirit of Fear.” We all know that God allowed Satan to send a very harsh trial into the life of Job… This great, and humble man, “had no Bible.” He had no church, and actually, he had nothing but a belief in the God he served and loved. But, a great trial came along,...
