What a miracle! His mother did not want another child, so she went to a “Haitian outhouse," gave birth, and “dropped him in!” Neighbors heard the faint cry of a baby coming from the outhouse! Amazingly, one man volunteered to “tie a rope around his waist,” take a bucket, and descend into the filthiest place...
Thank you! Yesterday we had $575 come in toward school supplies. We are believing the Lord for the balance of $6,075. I'm so sorry to ask you. The month of August has been the lowest month of donations in several years. We have never seen anything like it. To give toward this great need or...
“Leftovers…” Giving is a very serious thing to the Lord, and it should be to us. The amount of the gift is not the thing that is important, but God wants your best. In the Bible, Luke 21:1-4 tells the sweet story of the little widow who went to the Temple. Jesus was standing there watching. He watched as the...
It is so hard to realize that Nelson is now 15 years old! I have to “catch myself” and say, “How did that little toddler grow up to become such a sweet and strong young teenager?!” I can remember when my friend, Kaeli, and I brought him out of the “mud hut village” of “Old...
We have had Kidney in our orphanage since he was a little boy! Now, he has graduated from college with degrees in Telecommunications, Radio, Cable, Electricity, and more! He is a genius!!! Kidney was always so quiet and shy! He has never been in trouble and is always kind and humble! Today, he came to...
Kim Ostrander, who is here with us at Love A Child, sent this to me just a few minutes ago. We have an emergency need for all our orphan children. I'm asking the Lord to lay on someone's heart the total amount so that Kim and Jesse can purchase these things in Santo Domingo on...
Trusting in the Lord. “Delight thyself also in the Lord, and he shall give thee the desires of your heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” Psalms 37:4 & 5 Let the Lord give you the desires of your heart, delight yourself in the Lord… we...
Of all the years living here in Haiti, this is “my favorite photo.” We were working deep in the mountains... and it had been a rough trip up the mountains! Some of us had mules that we shared while others walked. The hot Haitian sun was beating down on us when we saw this sweet...
“The Divine Favor of God…” We teach the children here at Love A Child that “God’s divine favor” is worth more than gold! Divine favor can bring you out of a mess! Divine favor can “lift you up above your circumstances” when you need it the most. The Bible tells us the story of Daniel and the three Hebrew...
Franceau was the second set of “four brothers and sisters” here at Love A Child. He and his siblings lived high in the mountains of Mt. Noire, near us. We knew Franceau, his siblings, and his mother. And then one day, they lost their mother because of a “believed” heart attack. In Haiti, it is...
