“Testing the Spirits.” “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they be of God.” I John 4:1 Before Bobby and I moved to Haiti, we had a lot of experience with “spirits.” We had “open-air” meetings, we preached in tents, in churches, and other places, and even pastored a church...
Nelson... The first time I saw him was in the “mud-hut” village in “Old Letant.” There was a huge hog lying in the dirt and mud near the mud huts. I watched as a Haitian mother came carrying her child “by one arm,” and dropping the toddler on the ground beside the hog. I watched...
THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW: "Conditions in Haiti, right now!" I would say 95% of Haiti does not have electricity. A government official who was visiting us told me, the number is higher than that! Can you imagine the capital of Haiti, Port-au-Prince, has "zero electricity!" Cap Haitian... Zero electricity for five years. All the other...
“He’s Always on Time” In talking about the Lord, someone once told me, “He may not come when you want Him to, but He’s always on time!” How true that is! Our time means nothing to the God of the universe. We may be praying, “Hurry up God!” But God has His own “time.” I love...

“If He Did it Before, He Can Do it Again.” Today, someone is reading this post who needs a miracle. A miracle is something that you cannot do by yourself. It is something “beyond the natural,” that would not take place, unless “God did it.” Sometimes, we think that God is a “one-time miracle worker,”...
He is probably the sweetest young man we have ever met. He was born in the mountains of Greffin, Haiti, and his mother died right after Samuel was born. His father could not care for Samuel, and with tears in his eyes, he handed the baby to me. Samuel is now 22, and he is...
I can remember well the pregnant women who came to our little clinic years ago. Most of them were poor mothers who were just about to have their baby! We did not have a “Maternity Clinic” at that time, and some of the mothers, who came with coughs, colds, pain, etc., were “just about to...
The construction of our new "Food Distribution Center" in Anse-a-veau, South Haiti, has started! The construction company is bringing building materials by boat. Digging the foundation started this week! The completion date should be sometime in January. This will bless South Haiti and our prison ministry. PTL! for this wonderful building to store all the...
