We are so proud of all our wonderful "hardworking" Haitian staff at Love A Child. We are so thankful to Dr. Barthelemy, who is over the Jesus Healing Center (the blue building), and the other medical outreaches.

Bobby and Sherry travel across Haiti’s rough terrain to impoverished villages offering gifts of hope and nourishment. Your heart will break as you hear from children who must take their family’s livelihoods into their own hands and work hard to help provide, busting rocks into smaller rocks, fishing with damaged nets, or cooking on an...
THREE PROMISES! “He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.” Proverbs 22:9 “There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.” Proverbs 11:24-25 “He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack:...

“The Divine Favor of God…” We teach the children here at Love A Child that “God’s divine favor” is worth more than gold! Divine favor can bring you out of a mess! Divine favor can “lift you up above your circumstances” when you need it the most. The Bible tells us the story of Daniel and the three Hebrew...

When Fabiola’s mother could no longer take care of the children, their father turned them over to Social Services, who called us. Both children are “no...
