Founders and Directors of Love A Child, Inc. Bobby and Sherry Burnette are full-time Christian missionaries. At early ages, both Bobby and Sherry experienced the presence of God and continued to walk in His ways, which led them to meet, marry, and begin their ministry. Following the Biblical principles of evangelism and love, they began preaching the Gospel on street corners, under tents, in churches, and finally, to those living in poverty in third world countries.

When Bobby and Sherry first visited Haiti in 1971, they never dreamed how far God would take them. As they continued to minister in other countries, God kept calling them back to Haiti to share His message of love with the Haitian people who deeply touched their hearts.

In obedience to God, Bobby and Sherry founded Love A Child in 1985 to reduce poverty for children and help families in Haiti to become self-sustaining. Through feeding programs, medical outreaches, sustainability programs, and the building of Christian schools and churches, they have worked to share the love of Jesus by example. After all, “Love Is Something You Do.”

In 1991, Bobby and Sherry moved to Haiti and never looked back. Since then, the Burnettes have lived at the Love A Child Orphanage in Fond Parisien, and continue to “put their hands to the plow” in the country of Haiti, trusting God for His provision, protection, and preservation. And, knowing, without a doubt, that their Father in Heaven is in the business of working miracles.
