We know everyone has heard of and seen on TV the stories of the gangs in Haiti and the missionary couple who lost their lives. But poor babies, toddlers, and poor children in Haiti are dying from hunger and malnutrition as a result of the gangs. These are things they “don’t talk about on TV."...

Future Math Teacher, Mackenson!

Future Math Teacher, Mackenson!

When I first saw Mackenson in the arms of his father, I thought, “Surely this toddler will die.” But, I was “more than shocked” when I found out that this “toddler” was seven years old! Malnutrition had stolen many years already. We had to bring him back to Fond Parisien and begin the long path...
