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...

I know this is not a post about children. When you have a large orphanage, the Jesus Healing Center and many other buildings to operate on our Missions compound, it takes a lot of people to manage the whole infrastructure to keep all these buildings in good working order. We have a great volunteer crew...
“Forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:13-14 — A lot of people can't forget the mistakes of the past.
