Yesterday we had the worst travel day of our lifetime! We left Haiti yesterday morning, traveling by road straight to the Santo Domingo Airport, a 4 1/2-hour drive in the rain. We flew from the Santo Domingo Airport to Miami to catch our next flight. All the American flights were on time. When we landed in...
Have you ever had a dream, a vision, or a plan that God has given you for the future? Can you see yourself doing something you have never done before, but you still “get the feeling” that somehow, someday, you will be doing something “completely different,” because God has given you a “dream?” When I...
Noah... I may have done a post on Noah recently, but he is still such an amazing little boy! Noah was “abandoned” at our front gate here at Love A Child! He had “bite marks, burn marks, and belt marks," and he was only about a year old! He cried constantly when we found him....
After the earthquake in 2010, Love A Child found itself in the position of trying to help over 1200 new “refugees” rebuild their lives. God gave Bobby the vision to build Miracle Village, a new community of 600 clean, safe, and brightly colored houses for families to begin a new life. But the new families...
“Let’s Be A Child Again.” Little children are so precious. They are gentle, kind, and forgiving. They trust without even thinking about it. If you promise them something, they won’t let you forget it. They believe you will keep your promise, and they love you “unconditionally.” They trust their “Father.” When the crowds heard Jesus...
Tonight, we celebrated birthdays for the children that were here… Daphlina (Daphline), Daniel, Daniella, Miliana, Jameson, and Kenzy! There were several older children who were not here because they are in college! They played “musical chairs” for a long time! They had “egg races,” and so much more!! These kids make “a lot of noise!”...
Yolanda is 18 years old and has finished high school here in Haiti! She is like a little “secretary” to me! Yolanda lets me know who has a birthday each month, who needs to go to the dentist or the doctor, what kind of food we need to buy, etc. She keeps track of everything for...
We need three simple PA systems for Haiti, new or used. $4,000: One for our Children’s Home. Every evening at 6:00 PM, our children all get together in the cafeteria to sing and pray. $1,500: One for our Old Letant Church in Letant. They try to have service without a PA system, and it’s difficult....
The people of Fond Bayard were desperate for medical care. Love A Child saw their need and brought a brilliant team of doctors, nurses, staff members, and their own children, to serve the poor, despondent, forgotten village. They didn’t stop there; they also sent a bus into the surrounding mountains to pick up dozens of...
“For I will restore…” I have said this scripture to myself so many times… “And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.” (Joel 2:25) I had to run and look up the word “restore.” It means...
