“Had it not been for the Lord…” How many times have you had the opportunity to say this…? “Had it not been for the Lord, we couldn’t have made our house payment; had it not been for the Lord, my child would have been killed; had it not been for the Lord, I would have died; had it...
Today was “scrubbing floors” day! We put all the kids to work, even Zachary!! We have a “two-story” orphanage, so that means, “everyone works,” even the little ones, like Zachary and Zoey! The kids never complain. For them, it’s “loud music, laughter, and hard work (and sometimes, they get caught “skating!” Ha!) They all have...
Stephanie… She is the sister of George. She has a child with her husband (who is now in the States), and she adopted (took in) two more children.

These are some pictures from our food distribution up the mountain on Tuesday. 1,000 mothers came out to receive food to take back to their families. They were beyond thankful for the food... and 300 children were fed a hot meal! Thank you, Pastor Bogey from the upper room church in Alabama, for helping make...
The people of Fond Bayard were desperate for medical care. Love A Child saw their need and brought a brilliant team of doctors, nurses, staff members, and their own children, to serve the poor, despondent, forgotten village. They didn’t stop there; they also sent a bus into the surrounding mountains to pick up dozens of...
“Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.” Mark 8:34 – We live in a time now where it’s all about me. I can’t deny myself anything. What can God do for me? Bless me, God! Are you willing to say, I will deny myself and take...
