Please pray that Love A Child will find hundreds of black school shoes, any size, tie up, Velcro, anything. The Department of Education has a school dress code for the majority of the schools that are licensed in Haiti. In a few cases, way up in the mountains, they can wear tennis shoes, but 95%...
School Shoes Needed: Black dress school shoes are always needed here in Haiti. Many times, a company will sell out or lower the cost of shoes that are no longer in style.

“When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.” Isaiah 59:19 - We all have enemies, some of them we can't see such as fear or sadness, but we have a God who is ready to "lift up a standard" so that we...

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...
