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...
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"...
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...
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...

We are serving a Lord who took five loaves, two fishes, prayed and blessed it. He fed about five thousand men, beside women and children. When they were finished eating, Jesus had twelve baskets of food left over. (Matthew 14:17-20) Let the Lord bless your basket today. I just loved reading these scriptures early this...
This very poor Haitian congregation calls this their "church." It is on the top of a mountain that is very difficult to reach. Pastor Souffrance ministers this church and we give them food each month. This picture was taken following a food distribution after a crowd of 500 people had already gone. I wanted to show...

Life Church sent Ramon to work with some of our workers including Carlos, Philemon, and others to install this playground. Thank you Life Church, Ramone, Carlos, and...
