I remember the first day I saw him, as if it were yesterday! We were in the village of “Old Letant,” and the group from Feed My Starving Children was there with us. I saw this skinny little boy carrying large buckets of water on his shoulder, and he was also stirring a big pot...
THE LORD is GOOD! I took these pictures at our non-Denominational Love A Child church this morning. Haitians love to dress up to attend church. We started under a small 15-foot, square church that they made of palm branches and leaves on our property. Our first convert was an assassin and as mean as a...
Job’s God… If you think you are a “good Christian,” or if “you think you have made a great sacrifice to follow Jesus,” first read the “Book of Job!” I have read through several times and each time, I come away thinking what a “horrible, whining Christian” I am!

Widlene… This sweet young lady is almost finished with her “two-year” course in college as a professional chef! Widelene “loves to cook,” but she loves to “make the food something anyone would love!” She has been with us since she was just a young little girl. After finishing Philo, the 13th grade here in Haiti,...
Esther… She is the younger sister of Widlene. She will be going to college to become a dental hygienist. There is a college in Port-au-Prince where she can stay inside a “walled area” for safety. (Gangs are still here in Haiti.) We are proud of Esther. She is sweet, kind, and has never given us...
While our orphan children were in school this morning, these two big and delicious papayas came in from our Agricultural Training Center! The children will love them. Great job! (Note: Our Haitian schools let out for the summer next week.) Bobby and Sherry
