This afternoon, Bobby and I were deeply touched when we were asked to come and meet with Pastor Luders, of our Love A Child Church and Pastor Jonas, President of the “League of Pastors.” They came and presented us a reward in deepest appreciation for sponsoring the Crusade at Gwo Maché Mirak.

In the middle of all the chaos, gangs, kidnappings, economic collapse, and political unrest, we are planning for the future. We welcome Pastor Mark Ostrander to Haiti. He and his Haitian construction guys (the dream team) have been building our future housing for mission teams. We have not been able to bring mission teams in...
THE HARVEST IS RIPE! “Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.” Luke 10:2 Is the Lord calling you today? The harvest is ripe, but the laborers are few. Are you...

When you are taught the right way how to grow vegetables, you can grow them almost anywhere. I’m so proud of Wilner and all of the ATC guys. God can give an abundance! This is their third trip this week to our children's home. Sherry and I love to see the fruit and vegetables come...
There are four children in the Jeannot family... Julia, Yolande, Franceau, and Florence. They were our neighbors when we first moved to Haiti, and we lived up in the mountains. Their mother came by our gate almost every day. She was often sick, and we gave her food and medicine. When she died, the father...
