Pastor Mark and his construction team have been working hard on our future housing for teams. This morning I was telling the guys what a great job they are doing. We are building in the middle of all the gangs, shooting, kidnapping, etc. We want to be ready when this[…]
LAC TV Program “Loaves and Fishes” Begins Friday!
Love A Child traveled up the isolated mountains to the village of Bwa Pen and found many suffering families and starving children. Mothers toil all day, planting food, selling goods, and searching for scraps to feed their families; their children still suffer through the pains of hunger. Their children don’t[…]
Word from the Mission Field
“Je-ho-vah- Ji-reh…” My Provider. I am re-reading, again and again, the story of Abraham and Isaac, the son of “promise” and “the child born of a man 100 years old!” The child was the “miracle baby” of Abraham and Sarah. But yet, God wanted to “test” Abraham by seeing if[…]
Update on Joseph
Joseph and his sister Sarah came from the mountains of Covant… very, very far away and a strenuous walk or mule ride! Both children had severe Kwashiorkor malnutrition. I didn’t think they would live, but God had a bigger plan. Joseph is in a college called Canado Technique to learn[…]
Saving Lives…

This was David, praying unto the Lord. David was a warrior, and he could have easily defeated king Saul, his enemy. Because, as we all know, David had killed a lion and a bear, when he was just a teenager. Later, as he fought battles for king Saul, whom he[…]
Lucson… A Little Blessing!
This little guy came all the way from “Covant,” and actually it is called Belle Fontaine. This is the highest and roughest place we have ever worked in. It takes four-wheel drives, mules and then “on foot” to get there. This is where Lucson’s parents lived… they were poor farmers.[…]
“You Can Lead a Snake to School, but Making Him Sit is Tough!”
This is a Haitian Creole Proverb. Haiti is run by proverbs of the old and wise… Well, these are some of our Love A Child kids… I can see Yonel, Daniel, Fritzner, Raphael, Davidson, and a few more. They are on the “cleaning committee” for the Love A Child School.[…]
Is Anything Too Hard for God?
Bobby and I and our Haitian team are ready to go anywhere, anytime, whether it be food distribution, building earthquake housing in South Haiti, a Mobile Clinic, or anywhere else in Haiti where there is a need. But, the problems of travel in Haiti are unbelievably difficult. It is “killing[…]
