This morning at 4:00 AM, came a knock on our door. Sherry opens the door with a cup of Starbucks in her hand in her pajamas! Surprised, there were our children to wish Mom a happy birthday with birthday music playing! Our children, during the night, had put balloons all over the house. The smaller...
"Our Eyes are in Thee, Oh Lord..." In 2 Chronicles 20, Chapter 20, we find the hosts of the Ammonites and the children of Moab coming against King Jehoshaphat and his people. Once again, we see people who are "outnumbered," and they will be "annihilated" by their enemies. King Jehoshaphat and his people served the...
Today when we were in the depot, Kidney came to help us along with his brothers. His “sisters” that were there helping said, “Mom, Kidney is so sweet! We all love him!” Kidney is very shy. He does his work in our Radio Station, but he also lends a hand when there is other work....
I went to visit our Jesus Healing Center Clinic at 10:00 am. They had opened at 7:00 am and you can still see how crowded it was at 10:00 am! They come from many parts of Haiti because we have the best doctors who give “the best care” to their patients. They provide patient consultations,...
We welcome Pastor Mark Ostrander today to Love A Child. He will be working on future team housing. We are believing the Lord, in the near future, teams will be returning to Haiti. We want to be ready! We received a report from Port-Au-Prince this morning from several people saying they haven't felt this safe...
Whether we like it or not, we all have enemies. Enemies usually come from the “spirit of jealousy,” but there are other reasons people hate us. But, we cannot think about our enemies “all day long.” We must concentrate on praising the Lord and leaving our enemies to God. King David had many enemies in...
13-year Fabiola is still as sweet now, as ever. Her chores are cleaning her room, helping in the kitchen, and keeping the closets “shiny!” She came to us when she and her brother, Wilguens, were very young. Her mother had died and her father could not keep them. After the two children were given to...
At 8:00 a.m., Philemond, our driver (yellow shirt), already had the Love A Child van loaded up and ready to go! He will pick up two of our nurses, who take care of Jackson’s dialysis each night and they will also be taking care of Job (tall boy), who will be seeing a specialist about...
“Facing the Hard Stuff.” We all have to do it. Not everything will go easy every day, no matter how we pray, or give, or go or do. This is real life. We all love to do the nice things… visit the sick, take food to the hungry, comfort or pray for someone. But each and...
Just look at this beautiful young teen! Rebecca is in 9th grade now. We have had her since she was about three. Our Haitian Director, Nelio, rescued her from being “given to an older man!” She would have ended up in a horrible situation! She helps clean her room, iron clothes, does other housework, and...
