Job came to us “after a Haitian Pastor” carried him for hours down a mountain. He had been sent to another orphanage but they did not have room. Job is now 15 and about as tall as a “coconut tree.” He is sweet and quiet, and you never know he is here! About two years...
Last night, around 2:00 AM, the winds must have become hurricane-force winds. Farmer John WhatsApp messaged me at 2:00 AM, saying, "It's here." The winds were terrible for about 30 minutes, then settled down. This morning at 5:30 AM, it was still raining slightly. Sherry and I got in our vehicle and went around the...
The “Spirit of Fear” I heard someone once say, “I don’t believe that fear is a spirit.” I said, “Come to Haiti!” Haitians learn “fear” from the time they are born. They can go to church, pay their tithe, sing about the Lord, and be proud of their “Church Membership Card!” But when Monday comes,...
Fritzner is sweet, kind, and obedient! He’s the kind of kid that you could say, “I’ll take two of him!!” He was just four months old when Pastor Justin arrived from a long trip down the mountains to our old orphanage!! This trip saved his life! His mother had given birth to him and then...
In the last hour, I'm surprised how the weather has changed. From blue sky to wind, dark clouds, and some rain. We have picked up everything outside that could blow away and cause some damage. It looks like Hurricane Beryl is a dangerous Cat 5 hurricane that will hopefully pass south of us. We are...

This heart-wrenching story will help you understand how well “you and your children and grandchildren” have been blessed. Sherry Roudjinie Jean, a 9-year-old girl from Port City, shared her heartbreaking story with us. Originally from...
Fight the Good Fight of Faith We are such busy people nowadays that we don’t even remember that we are in a “fight” every day. If we could open our “spiritual eyes,” we would see so many “spirits” (many of them evil, setting traps for God’s people, trying to discourage them and harm them). This...
For many years, Sarah wanted to become a beautician and nail tech. She has been in college here in Haiti and will soon be finished. She is the “best one” in her class, whether it is nails, manicures, or “weaves!” She has had a lot of problems with her eyes so she got behind, but...
"WHEN WE HELP FEED THE HUNGRY, WE ARE DOING IT UNTO JESUS HIMSELF." MATTHEW 25:40 This weekend, children received a hot, nutritious meal that filled their hungry little stomachs in the southern village of Ka Ranimier in South Haiti. The hard-working volunteer Love A Child team left early in the morning from Anse-a-Veau to prepare...
BE FAITHFUL IN THE SMALL THINGS: READ MATTHEW 25: 14-30 Mother Teresa once said, “God has not called me to be successful. He has called me to be faithful”. Everyone wants to do great things and be noticed, but the Lord wants us to learn to be faithful first. Each day, God does big and small...
