Yesterday the ATC (Agricultural Training Center) staff had another big harvest from the Love A Child gardens. These large, productive gardens have become even more important lately because the gang-controlled roads often prevent us from getting to any markets to buy fresh produce.

God will restore! “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. And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.” Joel 2:25-26 God is...
When we first saw Yonel, we were deep in the mountains of Haiti conducting a Mobile Clinic. Along came an elderly grandma with a malnourished little boy with a swollen stomach and a little baby girl who was barely breathing! When we saw the baby girl, she was too near death and we were too...
We are in desperate need of two hematology machines (with reagents) for our Birthing Center and Clinic. Dr. Barthelemy has been begging us for these two very critical machines.

Madamn Pierre lost her house, her husband, her sister, and one other family member in last week's 4.9 earthquake near the town of Jeremie, Haiti. Our faithful Hubert and Love A Child crew traveled four hours away on difficult roads and rivers to cross and arrived with tents, tarps, and food for these broken people....
“And He said to them all, if any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.” Luke 9:23 There are less and less missionaries on the field each year because they are not willing to take up their cross daily and follow Jesus. Many only...
Thank you for your thoughts: I want to thank you, for all your kind and thoughtful birthday wishes yesterday. You lifted my heart and spirit. Sometimes living in Haiti, the devil says “Nobody loves you…” Thank you for your love and prayers. I love you too! Love is something you do! Bobby Burnette

We cherished...
