Apostle Paul said, “To preach the gospel in the regions beyond…” 2 Corinthians 10:16 - Please pray for Pastor Mark Ostrander and me today as we travel five hours one way deep and high in the mountains of Savaan Pit, Haiti. We will be traveling on very dangerous roads. We are in the process of...
Important: We need your help! Bobby and I are finishing our book! We have always called it "The Rat Shack," but our publishing company (great people) wants us to change it to: "When the Mountains Move," or "With Many Hands the Load is Not Heavy." Bobby and I want you to "vote" for the title...
“Back Alive!” Praise God for His safety! I know that I made "lots of angels" extremely nervous today while I was driving my Defender over and straight up the mountains! I was really scared last night and got up and prayed at 3:30 this morning. When I was driving, I had great confidence in God! We...
We tried to make it to the top of the mountain and the village of Peyi Pouri, but the Defender began to have radiator problems. We have a hole in the radiator, and this is bad news. The radiator problem continues, and we still have one more mountain to climb! We are broken down in...

It hasn't been long since we rescued little "Nelson" from a life of starvation and misery. When we found him he was being "starved to death" by his parents, who left him naked out in the hot sun to sit near the pigs. He had little or no water and was eating dirt! Now he is...
Today, we had a great meeting with the Americans here in our area. We hosted a "town meeting" held by Linda Hoover and Valerie Dume, from the U.S. Embassy in Port-au-Prince. These two ladies are amazingly easy to work with, very humble, communicate well, and are really interested in the Americans living in Haiti and...

We welcome Dave Balsbaugh and Mark Ostrander to Love A Child this evening. They made their trip through "blockades" and piles of rocks in the streets due to the Haitians "manifesting" over gas prices.
