When the gangs mounted a large attack on this area a couple weeks ago, they ransacked Pastor Claude’s compound. He is our dear friend and neighbor. His orphanage children and workers escaped. They took refuge in the surrounding area and mountains as shots rang out. While a major gun battle[…]
Yolanda Estime was born in the mountains of Covant, Haiti. It has been our toughest, most grueling, place to get to in Haiti! There are no medical clinics for miles around, so many mothers die in childbirth. Her father was unable to care for a newborn, as he already had[…]
The prisons of Haiti are some of the worst prisons in the world. There is no running water, no sewage, and no electricity, and now most have an average of one meal per week or less. Combined with no medical care, this creates the perfect storm of suffering for thousands[…]
BROKEN FOCUS: “Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: if ye do these things, ye shall never fall.” 2 Peter 1:10 So many things come up in our lives that try to break our focus from what the Lord has called us to do. Some of[…]

Here’s Joshua with his garbage bag and his “brothers”! He and his siblings (and two dogs) go out every morning and collect any trash they find! (They all know that “Poppie Bobby” hates to see any papers or trash lying around!) It takes about an hour to go around the[…]
We thank God because of our location and proximity to the Dominican Republic border. Even though the Love A Child compound has been cut off for quite some time from Port-au-Prince, we are able to still receive containers and goods through the border at Jimani in the Dominican Republic. On[…]
ON THE WINNING SIDE: I feel in the spirit of the Lord, this is for someone special. If the devil has knocked you down, then get back up!! “If God be for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31 “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors[…]
