"Who then, is my neighbor?”—That's what the rich young ruler asked Jesus after He had told him, "…and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." Could this poor family be your "neighbor?" We know that Jesus was not talking about "how close someone lives to you," but He was talking about those that God gives you a burden...
It's hard to believe that a little over ten years ago, this adorable little boy "Moses" was found nearly "buried alive" in an outhouse! His mother had apparently gone inside to give birth and then dropped him in to die, because she probably could not even feed the children she had! An older man heard...
Natalie lives in the old village of "Le Tant" by a lake near our Love A Child Village. We have been working in this village for many years. Natalie's father tries to fish in the lake, but cannot catch much when the wind is blowing. Also, many parents look for pieces of wood here to make charcoal...
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Psalms 23 - What a wonderful and comforting six short verses! This was written by David, the young man tending the flocks for his father. He said, "The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want." (I have no needs that He cannot fulfill.) He goes on to...

“The goodness of God leads men to repentance…” Romans 2:4 — In the 24 years of living and working here in Haiti, we have come to realize that "LOVE" is the greatest tool of evangelism that there is. We cannot look in the face of a mother with a dying child and say, "Go on...
1 Corinthians 13th chapter is the LOVE chapter. I want to encourage you to read the whole chapter today. The love of God is not selfish. We must love beyond ourselves, church congregations, outside our zip codes, and even our enemies. I have two enemies that I know of. I had to pray and ask...
What a contrast between happy children, who have good food to eat, and of those who have nothing or very little food to eat, like the children who eat dirt, mud, and small rocks. This is what we do. We "love the children of the poor" and we continue to add hungry children to our...
“I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.” John 9:4 — A lot of people ask Sherry and me, "Why do you do so much, getting involved in so many projects?" I tell them we work like this because it may be...
