We want to thank Jonathan and the team of firefighters from Allentown, PA, sponsored by LifeChurch, for coming to Haiti for additional training with our Haitian firemen! When you have a village of 500 houses made of wood, and people use charcoal to cook, it can get pretty dangerous! This wonderful team trained our Haitian firemen...
"The liberal soul shall be made fat: (blessed) and he that watereth shall be watered also himself." Proverbs 11:25 - When possible, give liberally. Even "tipping" is a form of giving. There is nothing worse than to eat a big meal in a restaurant and leave a small "tip," and a Gospel tract! Give liberally...
This has been a great day with my son Jonathan and the exciting Iditarod Dog Race. Here are some photos of the dogs up close. They are strong animals and they have a heart for racing and pleasing their leader. They are champions and it has been an exciting day. We also had the opportunity to...
What an experience of a lifetime to be at the Iditarod Sled Dog Race, the Last Great Race in Alaska with my son. When you hear all the dogs barking, I can't explain the excitement you feel. They want to run the whole 1,040 miles to Nome, Alaska, and you want to run with these champions! I miss our...

I don't think the Lord could have given us a better name. After all, as Bobby says, "Love is Something You...
HELLO from Alaska! My son Jonathan and I have been in Anchorage for the last two days getting ready for the big Iditarod dog race that will happen tomorrow. Can you believe that there isn’t any snow here? Yesterday, the temperature got up to 40 degrees! I don’t know what will happen in the morning...
We are so thankful for a new ambulance that has been donated to Love A Child by our good friend Jim Whittington. This ambulance is diesel-powered, in great shape and is ready to go to Haiti. It will mean saving more lives and it is a great blessing. Special thanks goes to Jim Whittington and...
