“I don’t know, mom! It was Ednas' idea!" Ha! We have a Haitian man working for us at the orphanage and he is “over the boys!” His name is Ednas and he “runs a tight ship!” Ha! In Haiti, (until High School), they usually want the boys to have bald haircuts! Ugh! It’s ok for...
We got our "first baby of the year 2025" from our Love A Child Birthing Center in Fond Parisien, Haiti! The proud mother, Marie Aliane Charles, is 40 years old and married! The baby girl, weighing 3.4 kilos (about 7.5 pounds), is in good health. Her mother came all the way from the “Pine Forest”...
Jackson is still in Santo Domingo. He loves his new hat! He has been seen by his doctors and is undergoing daily infusions of antibiotics in his dialysis solution. The doctors are trying to knock out peritonitis, an infection in his abdomen. If they are unable to solve the problem through antibiotics, they will have...
“Be Strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, He it is that doeth go with thee; He will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.” Deuteronomy 31:6 I have read this scripture many times over in my life. I never knew back then “how much...
I can remember the day we took Samuel into our orphanage. He and his family had been living in a poor village very far from us.

These pictures are of the Epi D'or Restaurant that is located in “Gwo Maché Mirak” (Grand Miracle Market) in Fond Parisien, Haiti. Love A Child built a huge market area...
“Nothing too Hard for God.” Sometimes, we “tie God’s hands,” with our unbelief. God “loves faith!” He loves it when we pray and thank God ahead of time for something that we need, but it isn’t here yet! In our Orphanage in Haiti, if we promise the kids we are going to do something or...
It was many years ago when we first traveled to Haiti. We rented a house in the mountains. Further up the mountain road was a poor lady whose husband had left her with two children, a baby named Esther and a little girl, three or four, named Widlene. Madamn Jesula was a poor lady with...
We are asking for your prayers today, on behalf of the poor in Haiti. Because of the gangs, the poor are suffering more than we can express in words. Their hunger and stress at not being able to feed their children, is more than you or I can comprehend! There is no “free government healthcare,” nothing...
“Is there anything too hard for God?” We often say that “God can do anything,” but when a trial comes our way, we begin to doubt! We might say, “God can do this, but will He do that?” When we say that, we limit God!! God wants us to “take the limit” off God! God...
