HAITIANS LOVE CHURCH! Years ago, when we first came on our property here in Haiti, we started to have “Church Services” under an old-fashioned “brush arbor!” It was 10 feet by 10 feet, made mostly of sticks, twigs, some ropes to hold the wooden posts together, and “faith!” Our first two converts were “Daisy,” an...
BETTER TO GIVE THAN RECEIVE: WHAT? “…It is more blessed to give than to receive.” (Acts 20:35) Everyone wants to receive, but it’s better to give. “Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure...
Just look at these cute little Haitian boys! Most of them are about three or four! The ball is just about bigger than they are! These little guys are so tiny, but they “don’t know it!” In their mind, they are tough, and they are “Future Champions!!” Their fathers have a dream that “their child”...
“HOME SWEET HOME!” We have crossed the Haitian/ Dominican border and are home in Haiti! It was so good to see our faithful workers, Ni Ni, Gilbert, and Tikline, who have been with us for 35 years! Then, we became surrounded by “smiling, happy kids, everywhere!!” We’ve had them since they were babies, or since...
The past two weeks have been very busy and productive for the Agricultural Training Center staff and students. In addition to the staff’s regular harvests of many fruits and vegetables for all 5 kitchens that serve all the areas of Love A Child, Wilner has been very busy with the 2-year ATC students who are...
Many sermons have been preached and many books written about the “seed.” The “seed” is an incredible mystery of planting, watering, and harvesting. Genesis 8:22 says, “While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.” We hold a seed in our hand...
Dieubon in Creole means “God is good!” And He has certainly been good to Dieubon. Dieubon was born with the worst "pair of clubfeet” I had ever seen! At that time, there were no doctors in Haiti doing clubfoot surgeries. Dr. Chester Falterman (who has since gone to be with the Lord) and Debbie Falterman,...
We were at the Gainesville airport at 4:15 AM this morning. We have since landed and are at the Miami International Airport now. Next stop is Santo Domingo, in the Dominican Republic. We will travel 4 or 5 hours on the road towards Haiti. We will stay on the Haitian/Dominican border at the "Waldorf" -...
In South Haiti, hundreds gather to celebrate the dedication of a new food distribution center built to serve hungry children and families. Though the warehouse is still empty, faith is already filling the room. Witness a powerful story of hope, provision, and the Gospel in action as Love A Child prepares to turn this building...
“The Mule and the Rolls Royce” Jesus said, “… a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” (Luke 12:15) Years ago, when we first moved to Haiti, we lived up in the mountains of “Mountain Noire.” We were so poor, probably the poorest of all missionaries. But we were in God’s...
