Lomene has come a long way… from being a restavek child, cooking, cleaning, and washing for a large family, to a college degree as a professional cook! She now works in our Love A Child kitchen and helps Nini, our Haitian cook, to prepare food for our visitors. One day, Lord willing, we want to...
Jesus talked about feeding and clothing the poor… “I was naked and he fed me.” Matthew 25:43 Just look at these sweet little children. There are so many poor families that we have been sharing with but I wanted to send out a plea… We need little children's clothing (boys and girls), desperately. It’s hard...
Leviticus 23:22 – “And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest: thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger.” No matter what kind of job we have...

We first found Yonel at one of our Mobile Clinics that his grandmother brought him to. He had severe malnutrition and would have died. (His baby sister did die.) We took him home, put him in the hospital for his malnutrition, and sent him through school! When he grew older, he worked for us as...
Sorry for the delay in getting our post up so late. We are up the dry riverbed outside of Fond Parisien. No internet; saw we had a little signal, so I thought I would try and send something. I'll give you a report later today with pictures. This is one exciting project! The river diversion...
The mothers living in Boulay, Haiti live in a constant state of stress. Not only do they have inflation, food shortages, and gangs to contend with, but they also have to deal with living in a flood zone. They are unable to sleep soundly; if it’s raining, they stay up to make sure the water...
