This morning Wilner and the Agricultural Training Center (ATC) team brought all these vegetables to our Children’s Home -- fresh from the garden! Lettuce, cucumbers, beets, mangoes, leeks, sweet potatoes, and regular potatoes. I could hardly believe my eyes! We also share these with others. There is no reason Haiti should be hungry. Good job,...
"Our Never Changing God!" We are living in a day and time when things are constantly changing... faster than ever. Our laws and government are changing, and the way we do business is changing. I can remember when you could call and actually talk to someone on the phone about a problem, but now, you...
Bobby lost his mother after he was born, and his father died not long after. His grandfather did not want him. He told Bobby’s teenage sister to find a home for him. She brought the baby to us. As he grew older, Bobby found a great passion for being a mechanic and working with “anything...
Here, we have more beautiful Love A Child girls who received new clothes for church! When these Haitian girls go to church, “every hair” has to be in place! Even though our churches in the United States are a little more progressive, many Haitian churches are still the same. Most Haitian Christians would never wear...
We had a great time with our older girls after church! Not all the girls are there, most of them had already changed their clothes. These girls: Daniella, Esther, Lovely, Widlene, and Sarah, wanted to have a picture with Poppie Bobby! We are thankful to “Picky,” one of our friends for “doing the shopping,” for...
God has a formula! The Lord woke me up in the middle of the night when Sherry and I were young in the ministry. I looked up, and there were these scriptures in the air, like looking at a television set. When I read them, I said, “Lord, you must be talking to me; we are very poor.” The Lord...
“The Hand Wide Open.” When you were a child, do you remember someone asking you to guess which hand had the coin in it? They would squeeze their hands so tight you could never tell which hand, was the “good one.” When the children of Israel came forth after many years, into the land of promise, the Lord...
We could call Kristela the “prodigal daughter,” because she is now living with her relatives in the mountainous village of Savaan Pit. (We are still her parents and we are still supporting her with school, food, medical, and clothing.) This is where she was born. As we told you before, her mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother...
Since the gangs control Haiti, the poor lead a much more difficult life, and the children of the poor are in the most dangerous situation. Unlike a Clinic that may be open from 7:00 am to 4:00 pm, our Malnutrition Center Clinic must be open 24/7. This means we have a full-time staff day and...
"Turning Your Face to the Wall" I have realized in my life that there is a difference between praying a "prayer," and "turning your face to the wall" and getting ahold of God... Sometimes, we get in a rut and just "pray a prayer." But, when it comes down to needing a real miracle, "now,"...
