With the Big Miracle Marketplace, the new residents of Fond Parisien could...
I love the scriptures about “helping the poor.” When we do “food distributions,” we give each mother a box of “Feed My Starving Children” food. Most of the time, we give mothers a “bag of cold water,” because they are thirsty and have come a long way. We have been doing this so long that...
She was from a family of four children… Years ago, we had taken in our first four children from the very area of L’Artibonite, Haiti.

Gabion Houses for the Families. Update: We have 8 Gabion houses under construction! More to come by faith! Families have been living under plastic tarps since the last hurricane took their house. I have a hard time sleeping at night. Somehow, someway, we will build at least 60 Gabion houses… 150 people are waiting, but...
“I Can’t Even Walk Without Holding His Hand” Have you ever slipped and almost fell, but someone caught you by the hand? It’s happened to me. I’m sure it has happened to everyone at some time. The mountains of Haiti are so steep. It is hard to climb “up,” but walking down is even harder....
