The “very poor,” mothers in Haiti have a tough life! They are the ones who have to worry about “where the next plate of food will come from,” and how to stay alive and keep their children safe from the gangs. Here at our Birthing Center, they find “love,” and “hope!” While they are waiting to...
Jackson started the night pretty rough, but things settled down. The dialysis is working and he seems to be feeling better. He has been able to hold down some juice and some soup. The doctor told us to give him some medication this morning, and he also held that down. I think that we are...
This is a Haitian Creole Proverb. It means that even in the middle of bad times, with gangs on the streets, fathers leaving their families to go to the Dominican Republic, and not being able to afford school or have one meal a day, Haitians, especially children, try to laugh to keep from crying.

Would you believe that God loves your “obedience” even more than your offerings? “Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.” 1 Samuel 15:22 Has God been speaking to your...

We serve the elderly who have pushed their bodies to the limit to reach us, mothers who have carried their children across rugged terrain for hours seeking lifesaving care, and children who need wounds cared...
No matter what happens in our lives, God can still get the "Glory" from it! In Genesis Chapter 38, there is the famous story in the Bible of Joseph. He was one of a large family of young men but his brothers were jealous of him! (Has someone ever been jealous of you?) They were...
Stephanie is the “baby sister" of Georges!
