Florence... Florence and her three siblings were the second set of “four brothers and sisters” that we started our Orphanage with. Florence was only about a year and a half old when her mother died, and her father could not care for four children with no mother. We took these four in... her sister Yolane,...
Every day there is a battle for the lives of the poor in our Jesus Healing Center Clinic. Every night is filled with fear. The Haitian Proverb says, “When a Haitian lays down to sleep at night, fear lays down beside them!” Not only do the poor fear “evil spirits” at night but now, gangs...
“… a very present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1 Have you ever been in trouble? Have you ever faced an angry mob blocking the road with burning tires, and holding gallons of gasoline in their hands? Have you ever been in a four-wheel drive jeep with bad tires about to slip off the side of the mountain?...
Widlene and her sister, Esther, were brought to us when Widlene was about four or five years old. Her sister, Esther, was a baby. Madamn Jesula, their mother, had brought them to our house in the mountains of Haiti, many years ago. Madamn Jesula was sick and thought she was dying. She wanted to know...
This afternoon the U.N. Security Council just authorized a “multi-lateral task force" from several different countries to come to Haiti, combat the gangs, and secure the upcoming elections! The U.S. will be funding $100,000 to help restore law and order. Africa will be the lead nation. Watch your news tonight for more information. Thank you...
Operating an orphanage in Haiti takes a lot of patience and understanding! Their culture is much different than ours… Here, we see Noah, Zachary, Kenzy, Joshua, and Samuel. Widelene, one of our older girls, took this picture yesterday as the little guys were heading off to church! Haitian adults and children love to “dress up”...
“You’re Missing One Thing.” I always hear people talking about “how much they love the poor.” There are a “lot” of “extremely rich families” in Haiti. They live high, high up in the mountains in a private area. Their homes are much alike, or some even better, than some movie stars. They have the biggest,...
Poverty, disease, and hunger are killing Haiti’s children, especially toddlers. There are more gangs every day, taking over the homes of the poor, the businesses, and the roads! Working mothers like Madamn Georges find it hard to get to the market with gangs everywhere! When their children are sick, they cannot make it to a...
“EXCEEDING ABUNDANTLY ABOVE.” Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon were written while Paul was in prison… Yet he said in prison under the anointing of the Lord these words, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.” Ephesians 3:20...
Just look at this sweet, 15-year-old boy, with a huge smile. We were in the village of Covant, Haiti, our “hardest-to-reach,” village, where we had a Love A Child church and school. It had already taken us hours by foot and mule to reach this location. We didn’t have much money back then, so our...
