We welcome Jesse Ostrander and Frank who came in today to work on the Grand Miracle Market. Frank is an excellent bulldozer operator and we have lots for him to do. We also welcome Don and Cathy who are here to train us on beekeeping. Cathy is a bee expert. David George also came in today. He is sponsoring a new orphanage, and he is here to keep that project moving forward. Mark Ostrander will come in tomorrow to help with the Marketplace. We are over budget because of the extra things we have built into the Grand Miracle Market. The Lord supplied $30,000 last week that we are using on the Marketplace. If we can raise an additional $30,000 this week, we will be at the finish line! Please pray about helping finish the Grand Miracle Market! Please help us reach the finish line by giving online now. The Marketplace vendors start moving in on November 18^th and the grand dedication service is going to be on December 9^th. Bobby

Julie Berger and some Haitian friends, Judi from Pastor Randy Landis’ Life Church, and Carlos all packed up our big box truck with food, medicines and gifts for the batey (sugar cane fields) workers in the Dominican Republic and the Dominican people. They left Love A Child this morning for a 10-hour drive. Please say a prayer for them. Love is something you do! Bobby and Sherry

I want to say “thank you” to Dennis Clark for all the scrubs he has sent to us! Wow, this is awesome! We can especially use these in our Mobile Medical Clinics. We have a great outreach program coming in February to the “Regions Beyond” up in the mountains. Thank you Dennis, I really like the zebra stuff! Ha! Sherry

“He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.” Proverbs 19:17 – The Lord is watching how we help the poor and needy, especially in a country where there is no government assistance. Love is something you do! Bobby

Today, all of us Love A Child Missionaries met here at our orphanage for a wonderful lunch and fellowship. Sunday is always a relaxing day here in Haiti. Every Wednesday evening at 7 PM, we meet for singing and a prayer meeting. Love is something you do! Bobby and Sherry

There was a woman named Tabitha, who by interpretation was called Dorcas. This is the part of the story about which most people don’t know. She was full of good works and almsdeeds. Almsdeed means giving to and helping the poor and needy. When she got sick and died Peter came and raised her from the dead! Have a blessed Sunday. Bobby and Sherry

This is Mackenson. He was brought to our Mobile Medical Clinic in Covant with extreme Kwashiorkor Malnutrition. His arms were splitting open and he was lifeless. We brought him to our Malnutrition Center and from there, to our orphanage. Mobile Medical Clinics save lives and bring people to Christ. It is the “goodness of God” that brings men to repentance. Go online and click on Mission Teams, and join a Mobile Medical Team today! You will never be the same! Sherry

Cornelius gave much alms to the poor. The Lord said to him “Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.” Please read Acts 10:1-4 today. The word alms means giving to the needy and poor. Tomorrow morning I will share a story with you concerning Dorcas who Peter rose from the dead. I will share a part of her life that most people don’t know. Bobby

We just received some beautiful handmade items from our wonderful friends and partners Mr. and Mrs. David Hubbard! Some of these items went to our toddlers here at Love A Child including Rodna, Rachael (Nazalie), Natalie and many others. The additional blankets will travel to a poor village near here! Thank you for “considering the poor!” Sherry

A very sensitive subject from Sherry…

Many partners and friends have asked us, “Why do the Haitian people have so many children,” and “do you teach birth control?” These are two very good questions. The answer to the first question, and I hope I don’t hurt anyone’s feelings, is that Haiti is a predominately Catholic country. They mostly believe that God is in control of how many children they have. Read more…
