We first saw Nelson in the “mud hut,” village of Old Letant. Everyone here lives in mud huts and more people are moving in every day! We were having a Food Distribution and Bobby was talking to Marc Crea, who was the director of “Feed My Starving Children.” I was not far from them, but...
When you plant one tiny single seed, it can grow into a full plant that has many more seeds on it. For instance, when you plant one seed of corn, it can produce an average of 800 kernels (from 500-1200) on a single plant. That’s great multiplication, or leverage, to go from one seed to...

You can love the stories and the Proverbs, and maybe you don’t agree with all of the Bible, but God cannot change His Word! It is like a sword! It can bless - but it can cut deep! I have come to learn that “God’s Word is His Word!” Many people we have known in...
He is in his fourth year of Accounting and is right under our main accountant, Alex! He is now 25 and “not married yet!” (Maybe too cheap to find a girlfriend? Ha!) He is one of the most “disciplined young Haitian men” I have ever met! His father and mother were extremely poor, so when...
Sherry and I, along with Mark and Evie Ostrander and Jesse and Kim Ostrander, are at the Haiti United meeting in Sanibel Island till Saturday morning.
