“When all hope is taken away.” In Acts 27 Apostle Paul is a prisoner of the Gospel. He had done nothing wrong but his preaching stirred up the Jews. When he went before King Agrippa, the king sent him on to Italy. They had to travel by ship. Apostle Paul had a “word from the...
Sometimes God's provision doesn't look fancy. Sometimes it looks like an overloaded truck crossing the Haiti border, packed with toilet paper and everyday supplies that many of us take for granted. To someone waiting on the other side, those ordinary items are extraordinary blessings. When God provides, He provides exactly what is needed. May our...
And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.” Matthew 5:41 In the days of Jesus, the Jewish people were made to carry the heavy load of a Roman soldier if asked, “one mile,” but only one mile. Jesus said, “If someone compels you to carry a load or to go ‘one mile,’...
It was a little more than 20 years ago that a poor mother knocked on our gate outside our home in Haiti. The poor mother had a baby in her arms and a little toddler holding onto her skirt. The little girl holding on was Widlene. Her mother gently shook the crying baby, who was...
Meet Saurel and Lomane. These two guys have been working for Love A Child since 1998; that's 28 YEARS. They've survived an ongoing food crisis, earthquakes, gang violence, political upheaval, assassinations, more presidents than we can easily count, and yet they show up every day, on time, and work hard!

The ceremony was scheduled to start at 1 p.m. After a late start, we finally escaped around 8 p.m.! So, what do you do after surviving a marathon graduation? Load up a bus...
GOD HAS A REMNANT! The world is changing. The church is changing. Seems like the standard of rightness is changing. Some are preaching an anemic gospel. I heard one well-known minister say (concerning sin), “No rules, just love God.” I have made up my mind. I will not go the way of the world. God has a...
Just as Jabez’s prayer in 1 Chronicles 4:9-10 acknowledges God as the source of all His Blessings and asks for his territory to be expanded, we are now praying to expand our garden territory in Haiti. We have some unused land near the Children’s Home that Bobby and Wilner believe could be turned into productive...
Is it time for a spiritual checkup? The Bible says, “There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.” 1 Corinthians 15:44 Once a year, Sherry and I go see the doctor for a physical checkup. It’s also important in our lives to have a spiritual checkup. I’ve learned something very important with my walk...
