Don’t pass by on the other side… I love the story in the Bible that speaks of loving your neighbor and the Good Samaritan. You know the story… “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. And...
I can remember the day her aunt brought her and two other siblings to our Love A Child Orphanage here in Haiti. Their aunt explained that their parents had died when their small boat capsized while trying to get to the United States. We have had Bianca and her siblings ever since. Bianca has always...
The kids are hard at work once again preparing for a large food distribution on Saturday. The food will feed 500 refugee families that fled the gangs when they raided Ganthier. These beautiful workers are very efficient. They have their own system of separating the rice, beans, and oil. They work with joy in their...
“What’s a Mountain to an Eagle?” Are you facing something “overwhelming” in your life today? We have been through many things, too. Bobby and I have found ourselves with our backs against the wall.

Our Love A Child team in Anse-a-Veau, South Haiti, was up early preparing a meal for 270 prisoners locked up in the prison there. Though they are unreachable from the main compound in Fond Parisien because all the roads are controlled by the gangs, the work continues. We are unified in spirit and purpose. We...
The Answer is “No!” We often pray and ask the Lord for something, but before the prayer is finished, we begin to doubt that He can do it! When we pray, we must “pray and believe” that it is finished, and that God will wipe up the job! He can and He will!!! But we...
We thank God for some unannounced reinforcements that showed up to the Love A Child compound a few minutes ago. I cannot say too much or post any photos, but these guys are professional! All of the kitchens here are closed at this hour, but Nini and Gilbert were able to throw together some sandwiches...
