Today, Kenson, Daniella, and Jonas are all off to college. Last week, Lovely, Kidney, and Bianca left. Still, more to go! Kenson and Jonas will be taking Spanish because they will eventually want to take “Mechanics” in the Dominican Republic. (There are no good mechanic courses to take near here.) Little Daniella wants to be...
Due to the problems of all the gangs here in Haiti, many of the poor have no way to sell their items to earn a little money. That little bit is spent on “food alone.” If they had to come to our clinic and pay for a “consultation,” “labs," and “expensive medicine,” they and their...
“More Precious than Gold” Everywhere we look on TV, there are commercials advertising to get you to buy gold! They tell you that gold is more precious than anything, and they want you to invest in “gold bars!” While this is good for those who can afford to do this, the Bible tells us something...
I remember the day when we were asked by Social Services to take in an abandoned child. His name was Samuel. He was sick much of the time with stomach pains but has been able to outgrow this sickness, we believe. He has been to the hospital several times with stomach pains but is fine...
Oh, I love this note from Wilner, the head of our Agricultural Training Center today! Sustainability is helping Haitians to help others! Please read his note to me and look at the beautiful pictures. He just calls me Big Boss. Ha! Bobby Burnette Dear My Big Boss! Today we had the big of...
Our Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) container of 272,000 meals was supposed to arrive yesterday in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, then travel to the Haitian border, then into Love A Child. Due to the border still being closed, the shipping company has our container arriving now on the 24th. If the border is still closed,...
Our Lord Jesus is simply amazing! Our Lord takes "nothing” and creates “something good!” He “multiplies” what we give unto Him, even though it may be small. In Luke 9:12-17 we see a great multitude of men, women, and children who had been sitting, listening to Jesus all day. At the end of the day...
We first started our orphanage with four children. But a short time later, we took in another family of four children... three girls and a boy... the Jeannot family. Last year, we lost Franceau’s sister Julia, who died during childbirth. His sister Yolande is married and teaches Preschool children at our Love A Child school....
I love the “first day of school!” It is so quiet and peaceful here at our Orphanage! You have no idea how loud 85 kids can be “when they’re all talking at once!” Ha! Zoey and Ginyia were up early! (The girls always get their hair braided the day before or earlier because this is...
This video was sent to me yesterday afternoon of the Dominican military arriving at the border out near us... Unbelievable! The president of the Dominican Republic spoke on TV last night in the D.R. Looks like the Dominicans and the Haitians are both steadfast, believing they have the right to the river to grow their...
