Our sweet Julanne is in America with Rad and Sandra Hazelip. She was one of our first orphans. Her father was dead, and her mother was dying when she made me promise to take care of Julanne. She was severely malnourished when she first came to live with us, but we gave her food, love and a place to call home. Now, Julanne is studying to be a pediatrician at Notre Dame University in Haiti. She arrived in Miami on Saturday, which was her first trip to America. Rad and Sandra took her to a “movie theater,” and today she was in the Love A Child office. Thank you partners for changing Julanne’s life! Sherry

We are preparing to deliver food to those poor Haitians living in the area where they make mud cookies. We will also be taking gifts for the children and adults. Many have never received gifts in their lives. Julie Burnette Halecki, Kaeli Fletcher, Philemon, and our Haitian staff will be coming with us. I can’t disclose the day or the time because of security reasons. Bobby

I was reading an amazing story at 4 AM this morning. Oh, what a miracle story! Gabriel who stood in the presence of God was sent to give a message to Zacharias and his wife Elisabeth. “They both were now well stricken in years.” Luke 1:7 – “Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.” Luke 1:13 – Six months later, the same angel Gabriel was sent to Nazareth to speak to a virgin by the name of Mary. “And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.” Luke 1:31 – I want to share this with you today – “For with God nothing shall be impossible.” Luke 1:37 – Please read Luke chapters one and two today. What a story! Bobby

We are teaching our children how to ride their new bikes. Oh, what a day! There will be more lessons to come! Thank you Harry and Caren for this wonderful gift of love! We have 20 more new bikes for some very special poor children. Love is something you do! Bobby and Sherry

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places…” Please read, Ephesians 6:10-18

Back in that day, it would have been silly for a warrior to go into battle with just his helmet on, leaving the rest of his body unguarded. Or to wear only his breastplate, making his head vulnerable to attack. It’s just as silly for us to go out into the world without all of our spiritual armor on. So put on your armor and be a victorious warrior for the Lord today. You will stand against the wiles of the devil! God bless you. Bobby

Christmas is over and 2016 is just around the corner! From Nelio Barthelemy, Love A Child’s Haitian Director, Bobby and Jonathan Burnette, we wish you a happy 2016. The best is yet to come! Bobby

The Lord gave me this thought several years ago. “Faith is not something you just talk about, but faith is something you do. Love is not something you talk about, but love is something you do!” Everybody can talk it, but can we walk it? Bobby

Here are Jonathan, Julie, Aiden and Brandon Burnette in a Haitian village where we will pass out food and gifts tomorrow. Also pictured are the new bikes for our orphans! We will also be giving bikes to some very poor children in other areas. Thank you Harry & Caren Watmuff for these 85 new beautiful bikes! Wow! Love is something you do! Bobby and Sherry

This is the third day of all the orphans opening their Christmas gifts! When you have this many children you must spread Christmas out over three days! Thank you partners for helping us make this happen! The children don’t know it yet… but in about one hour we will give the children their new bikes!!! Wow! Love is something you do! Bobby and Sherry
