Today we welcome Pete and Denise Roberts from Harrison Poultry, Inc. in Georgia. Pete has worked with chickens for 50 years. He is here to help start the Haitians off on the right foot on how to raise chickens for their Haitian Chicken Co-op Program. Pete knows more about chickens than anyone alive! Well pretty...
There is a big difference between a desire and having a true calling to be a missionary. If we only have the desire, then when it gets hot, everything goes bad, and voodoo powers are all around us, one may weaken. When money is tight, there is death, starvation and emergencies every day; the desire...
It is just now getting quiet (thank you Jesus) after the big “Birthday Bash” here at our orphanage. We celebrated "three months of birthdays" that we got behind on, and also lots of kids who made “highest grades” in their classes. It was loud, noisy and lots of fun. The little boy I am holding...
This morning, the first 500 one-day-old chicks arrived at the Chicken Co-op here in Haiti! Thank you to Mike Welch, Larry, and our friends at the USAPEEC International Poultry Development Program. Very soon the Haitian people who are working in the Chicken Co-op Program will be able to put hundreds of chickens in the Grand...

We all started working at the Chicken Co-op this morning at daylight. The “hot chicks” will be here tomorrow at 9 AM, and we have a list of items to complete before they arrive! We must have the water tower up, the electric installed, the inverters and batteries ready to go, all of the buildings...
These are some amazing views of the Chicken Co-op Project, which was sponsored by the USAPEEC International Poultry Development Program and the friends of Mike Welch. It is just another sustainability project we are involved in for the poor Haitians. Also, you will see the view of the Chicken Co-op Project and the Grand Miracle...
Do you want to be a missionary? There are three things you must have on the mission field: 1. The true calling of God, not just a desire. 2. A great love for the people living where the Lord sends you. 3. You need patience for when things go wrong and your soul is tried...
This is Ezekiel, one of the children at our Love A Child Orphanage. Our children in Haiti always receive their report cards later than children in the States do. He recently took a test to go from the Sixth Grade into Junior High School. The results came in showing that he had a very high...
The "calling of God" is the highest calling, but the work can be demanding, rough, heartbreaking, and occasionally discouraging. To be a missionary you must be tough as well as persistent and unstoppable. You must learn from the experience of those who have gone through the storms before you, so you don’t make the same...
