We certainly love Florence and are so proud of her. She was in the second set of four siblings at the start of our orphanage.

When we lived high up in the mountains, Florence’s mother would come to me for food and medicine. One day, she stopped coming, and her father appeared at our gate with four sad children, two of who had a very serious illness. His wife had died. We took them in…

Florence’s brother, Franceau, is now running our Gwo Maché Mirak. Her sister, Yolande, is a kindergarten teacher at our LAC school; her sister, Julia, died two years ago during childbirth.

Years ago, when we began to build our orphanage, the Lord spoke to Bobby’s heart and said, “Don’t build this like the poor orphanages in Haiti.” (Some Haitian Pastors had crumbling orphanages and kept them that way to raise money!) But the Lord said, “Build a beautiful home for the orphans. You will be raising “Thoroughbreds!””

Friends, “you” have done this! Thank you with all our hearts!!

Bobby and Sherry
