Word from the Mission Field

Word from the Mission Field

“What’s in the basket?” The timing is Egypt, and Pharaoh is killing off all of the male Israelite babies because the “Israelite population is exploding.” One woman of the house of Levi conceived a son, and she knew they would kill him. She took him to the river along with her daughter. She made an...

Surrounded by Love!

Surrounded by Love!

Who would ever abandon a baby and leave him in front of our gate at Love A Child? Children have come to us from all directions. Many times, a mother will beg us to take a child. She has too many children, no job, and her husband has left her. Sadly enough, this is Haiti’s...

“Anniversary Day!”

“Anniversary Day!”

Bobby and I will be celebrating our anniversary today. I met Bobby in an “old-fashioned” Gospel Tent Revival in Orlando, Florida. We were just teenagers when we met. My mother and I and one of her friends had gone together. The “tent revival” minister was “Bea Medlin!” She was such a powerful evangelist! After the...

Word from the Mission Field

“Crazy Faith!” An old man of God preached a sermon one time on, “How Bad Do You Want It?” Most Christians ask the Lord for something and then whine around when we don’t get it immediately, but “faith without works is dead… dead faith.” Jesus had been wearied with preaching and praying for the sick....

The following week, she has an important medical procedure on Thursday, then another procedure after that. Through all of this, Sherry is doing really well. We have plans to travel to...

Word from the Mission Field

“Putting God First.” People nowadays, even many Christians, often forget to “put God first!” The Lord always wants “First Place” in our lives. Many times, Christians put God last and wonder why He has not answered their prayer. Luke 12:31 says, “But rather seek ye the Kingdom of God: and all these things shall be...

Esther, Always Striving for Excellence

Esther, Always Striving for Excellence

Esther is the sister of Widlene. She is a devout Christian, also. Esther has always had a dream of being a “dental hygienist.” She has always been good at teaching the children in our orphanage how to “brush their teeth,” to prevent disease. The first time I saw Esther, she was a baby in the...

Everyone Wears Their Best at Church!

Everyone Wears Their Best at Church!

“Let’s Go to Church!” The people of Haiti, no matter how poor they are, will find “something” beautiful to wear to church! In Haiti, large bundles of used clothing arrive by boat and are sold for very little. In the States, many are accustomed to wearing jeans, and many women wear pants. We like to...

Word from the Mission Field

“𝐋𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲…” If the Lord wanted you to “lend Him some money,” there’s no doubt you would say, “Oh, keep it, Lord! You’ve already done so much for me.” But when we give to the poor, we are “lending to the Lord.” “He that hath pity on the poor, lendeth unto the Lord,...

Very Mature for Her Age… Zoey

Very Mature for Her Age… Zoey

Zoey… This little girl is one of the most “grown-up” little ones of all the children we have raised in our orphanage. Zoey has always been “glued to” her older sisters, in music, dance, or any kind of work. I know I have posted other things about Zoey, but she is just an “unusual little...
