We just returned from a "family food distribution" in the garbage dump area called, "Truttier." Three hundred and thirty mothers came for food. This required three police, several of our men, and ten "local security." This is one of the most dangerous areas of Haiti, where thieves and those with guns steal from the poor....
This morning at 5:30 AM, Mark Ostrander and our Haitian construction team left for the mountains to start putting on the roof for Madam Adeline’s orphanage. Pray they all have a safe trip. Bobby
"For we walk by faith, not by sight." 2 Corinthians 5:7 – What a revelation! When Bobby and I were teens and dating, Bobby was always trying to go on a "21 day fast, just on water." He tried for years to go the entire 21 days, but it was so hard. We were so...
Our Love A Child Orphanage children worked hard packing food to take to Truttier, tomorrow. That is the largest garbage dump in Haiti, where hundreds of families live. It is so dangerous to distribute food there because thieves with guns are ready to rob and steal. So we are hiding the food, in these sacks....

We are so proud of our missionary Kaeli Fletcher! She and her mother, Leslie, have been helping us on many projects and "distributing clothing" was one of them. Kaeli took her mom to the poor village of Letant and the little girls' eyes just "lit up" when they saw these dresses!!! We want to thank...
Yesterday, our missionary Kaeli took 15 of our Love A Child children to the beach because they were some of those who made the highest school grades... very high! For most of them, they had never been to the beach before, so it was quite an experience! This is Yolanda and Jolina enjoying a fresh...
“That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” Hebrews 6:12 — Everyone has faith, but faith and patience work together! The Lord promised Abraham a child when he was already old, and Isaac was not born until 25 years later! Abraham had faith and patience. Don’t...
Our Love A Child girls really enjoy dressing up!! Daphline, Jolina and Yolanda are just some of our children who have done very well in school! We've had these children since they were babies! We have a "big family" here in Haiti! God bless you, partners, for changing lives, every day! Bobby and Sherry
