Part One... The little Haitian village of Barassa is a small town in the mountains, in the middle of “nowhere,” Haiti. The village's poor have no access to a hospital, clinic, or even a nurse. As you can imagine, lots of deaths occur. When women get pregnant, their birth takes place in a small, dark...
Wilner Exil, as many of you know, is the Director of our Agricultural Training Center (ATC). I thought his e-mail to me was so cute. He and his team, along with the students, started planting these vegetables (listed below) on Valentine's Day because they were in love with their planting of vegetables. Well, there is...
Love A Child travels high up into the mountains of Peyi Pouri. Your heart will break as you hear these children’s stories of heartache and hunger. Voodoo took the life of one family’s mother; left as orphans, their aunt took them in, but four more mouths to feed are stretching already scant resources very thin....
THE ENEMY IS COMING… The Spirit of the Lord came upon me to give you this scripture. “When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him." (Isaiah 59:19) Run devil, run! Missionary Bobby Burnette

Afraid of change? I really felt like giving this scripture this morning, because someone is getting ready to make a move and is “afraid of change.” But God is speaking to you and saying, “Don’t be afraid. Don’t be afraid of change…” “Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy...
ANOTHER LOAD OF 272,000 MEALS CAME IN TODAY!!! Through all the troubles and gangs in Haiti, blocking the roads and kidnapping, we have containers of Feed My Starving Children meals rolling in to Love A Child. The children and families are being fed! This is one of the greatest joys of our life. Barry,...
Ada (or Jessica) came to live with us when she was very young. She has two other siblings here in our Children’s Home! She is now in High School and makes very good grades! She loves to cook and is very “artistic,” as many Haitians are!!! Her hobbies are dancing, singing, and playing outdoor games...
Fond Bayard is a village right near the Haitian/Dominican Republic Border... The poor families here have been struggling for years. You see, they had gone to the Dominican Republic years ago to work in the cane fields to make a living. But, they were all "deported" back to Haiti. There is a big sign at...
