Recently, we wrote about the need to replace the 11-year-old original water pump, which had failed and fallen into the bottom of the well that gives water to the Miracle Village Family Gardens and the Agricultural Training Center (ATC). We were finally able to get the new replacement pump (a[…]
Travel Update
Leaving Santo Domingo We could not make it across the border on the Dominican Republic side into Haiti. We are heartbroken not being with our orphan children at Christmas. God’s plan is bigger than ours. We have plans now to enter in January. This will be Plan C! Our plane[…]
Word from the Mission Field
God’s law of sowing and reaping… “… He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you;[…]
Georges… “Anything With Wheels!”
We were told about a young mother with many children who was going to have to “leave her baby at the hospital” because she could not afford another child. When I found this out, I went to talk to her. She begged me to take the baby when he was[…]
MORE FOOD JUST DELIVERED TO NAKOU, HAITI!

Our Sweet Jonas…

DISTRIBUTION YESTERDAY NAN PLEZI!
More good news. Last week, the Love A Child (LAC) office sent the money to purchase a new 4×4 heavy-duty food truck in Haiti. The dealership is building a box on the back of the truck to hide the food as we travel down the road. We have not been[…]
“Open Wounds…”
I love doing mobile clinics in Haiti and “the regions beyond.” It has been hard to have the Mobile Clinics because when we buy medicines, we have to buy them from Port au Prince and it is hard to get the medicines through the gang areas. But now, we have[…]
