School is starting up throughout Haiti this week. Many children that have nothing to eat in school become lethargic and fall asleep in their classes. Some only have a cup of coffee and sugar before they have to walk three or four hours over the mountains to school. We will be sharing our food with 53 other organizations tomorrow, so that they can continue to feed the many hungry children. Thank you partners! Sherry

Thank you for your concern and prayers. “If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.” John 14:14 – God answers prayer! Bobby
Tomorrow, the Feed My Starving Children Team is coming to work with us for a week. We will be taking food up to the mountains and feeding hundreds of hungry children. We have partnered with them for about 17 years. Feed My Starving Children donates food to us, and our Love A Child partners help sponsor the transportation of the food from the States all the way to Haiti. We will update you on the many meals we will be giving out this week to hungry children and their families, and it is all because we work together! God bless you, Sherry

Time is a universal currency. What we do with it will determine our future. Time is a precious treasure; this is why the enemy always tries to steal our valuable time. “To every thingthere is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven…” Ecclesiastes 3:1 – Have a blessed Sunday. Bobby and Sherry
Baby Elijah’s surgery went well today. Elijah is about 3 ½ months old and he was left at our Love A Child gate over two months ago. We soon discovered that he had meningitis, and also has a hydrocephalus head that causes severe seizures. Ezekiel, our driver, took him to the hospital this morning and when he came back, he said, “This was the first time that I have ever seen the baby cry or even act a little normal.” Elijah should be home on Monday. Thank you for your prayers. Sherry
Today from 7:00 AM to noon, our Fond Parisien Church had a special prayer service for all the children in the area that will be going to school. They were praying that the Lord will protect the children, keep them from harm and away from any bad spirits. We will be praying that the Lord will help them study and make good grades in school. Maybe we should do the same in our country. Sherry
