Last week I posted the post below asking everyone to pray for the Mondisir family who lost their house in a fire. I did not mention how much it would cost to build a new larger house for the family. Pastor Karen, head of the Missions Department, called the office[…]
We have a good news post coming up around noon today! PTL! Be looking for it… Bobby and Sherry Burnette
Those living in Haiti right now have so much to fight against: unemployment, food scarcity, rising inflation, gang violence, and a complete lack of peace and stability. So many families are just trying to survive each day, searching for one simple meal, and working hard to make pennies, they are[…]
“… Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.” (Isaiah 6: 8) Isaiah obeyed the calling of the Lord, as he went and proclaimed his Word! God spoke to Moses out of the flame, “… the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses.[…]
This is our sweet “Jonas.” You may remember that he was a “restavek,” child that we found in the mountains during one of our Food Distributions. The word restavek, in Creole, means, “rest with or to stay with.” However, it is just a nice word for “slave.” When a Haitian[…]
All Haitians love to laugh and play!! Even if the kids don’t believe in Santa Claus, it brings great joy to the kids! This year, our big, tough, worker (over the boys), “Camy,” was Santa! Camy and the kids go around the property each afternoon and pick up trash, and[…]
A Policy with Good Benefits Looking for a good life insurance policy? We always try to check into the ones with the best benefits. Sometimes we think we have benefits until we read the small print, and the small print is not on our side. The Lord also gives us a policy. It is called the Word of God, and it has many benefits.

Who forgiveth all thine iniquities (sins); 2. who healeth all thy diseases; 3. Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; 4. who crowneth thee with lovingkindness… 5. …and tender mercies; 6. Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things;[…]
We just got this sweet note from our precious Daniella. She is in her first year of college in Haiti. She will be studying hard to reach her goal of becoming an “eye doctor.” When her twin brother, Daniel, began to have problems with his eyes for many years, she[…]
After living and working here in Haiti for many years, we have seen a lot of “mothers and babies” who have died in childbirth because the mothers either had poor health, or the babies were born in filthy conditions! I once saw a man in the mountains run outside his[…]
“What if God Gave Us His Leftovers?” How would you feel if someone “prosperous” invited you to their house for Thanksgiving dinner, and when you arrived, they said, “Glad you came over, we’re going to have ‘leftovers,’ just for you!” I’m sure you would be gracious but maybe just a[…]
