Julie Berger and some Haitian friends, Judi from Pastor Randy Landis’ Life Church, and Carlos all packed up our big box truck with food, medicines and gifts for the batey (sugar cane fields) workers in the Dominican Republic and the Dominican people. They left Love A Child this morning for a 10-hour drive. Please say a...
I want to say "thank you" to Dennis Clark for all the scrubs he has sent to us! Wow, this is awesome! We can especially use these in our Mobile Medical Clinics. We have a great outreach program coming in February to the "Regions Beyond" up in the mountains. Thank you Dennis, I really like...
“He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.” Proverbs 19:17 – The Lord is watching how we help the poor and needy, especially in a country where there is no government assistance. Love is something you do! Bobby
Today, all of us Love A Child Missionaries met here at our orphanage for a wonderful lunch and fellowship. Sunday is always a relaxing day here in Haiti. Every Wednesday evening at 7 PM, we meet for singing and a prayer meeting. Love is something you do! Bobby and Sherry

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...
A very sensitive subject from Sherry... Many partners and friends have asked us, "Why do the Haitian people have so many children," and "do you teach birth control?" These are two very good questions. The answer to the first question, and I hope I don't hurt anyone's feelings, is that Haiti is a predominately Catholic...
