Under the shadow of the Almighty! Haiti is going through some very tough times. You may be going through tough times. We will not be afraid! We are standing upon the Word of God. Psalms 91:1-16 Bobby Burnette
Lovely was just a baby when she was abandoned by her father, due to some health problems. Her mother died and her father could not care for her. We took her in when she was just a baby, and she quickly “grew into our hearts!” Lovely is in college now, studying to be an attorney...
The gangs have been turned back at Ganthier. A nearby small soldier force and many of the townspeople of Fond Parisien (where Love A Child is) all rushed in with guns and machetes to help defend Ganthier against the gangs, who were trying to take it over and march toward us. Praise God, the gangs...
The 400 Mawozo Gang is attacking the police station in Ganthier just down the road from Love A Child, which also protects us in Fond Parisien. Vicious gun battles are there and hundreds are running down the road toward us screaming, crying, and scared to death. Please pray... we are standing on Psalm 91. We...

A thousand shall...
Yesterday evening, after we left Job at the hospital, we went to our Love A Child apartment to see Jackson. His two nurses stay with him. He is now on dialysis 12 hours per night. (He used to be on it for eight hours a night.) A special thank you to Jesse, Philemond, Kita, and...
When she was a baby, her parents had left on a "Haitian boat" headed for the States. The boat capsized, and they drowned. The baby was cared for by her aunt. She also had a sister, Bianca, and a brother, Raphael, but her aunt had no way to continue to feed and care for them....
There is no greater thing than to see a life changed “forever.” My best, most unforgettable story was of Joel, the witch doctor we won to the Lord in Old Letant. I know that I have told his story before, but I can still hear him say, “That old Joel that you knew before, is gone! You...
