Madamn Louima Flerisma arrived at our Birthing Center. She is 37 years old and is the mother of five children. She is from the "Pine Forest" in Haiti, very far from here. She is a farmer and totally depends on the land to support her and her children. She has no husband to help her....
It was a joy to travel to a new village, very poor, called "Nan Plezi" (which should mean "the Pleasure"). I don't know why they call this village Nan Plezi, because I couldn't find a single thing that would bring pleasure... no crops, no topsoil, no water, and few trees.

“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God…” Do you realize that God has given us a commandment to love Him? Why should He have to do that? He is our everything! We can only “exist” by Him! He controls each heartbeat, each breath of air, each step we take. He knows where we will be...
Ericka… sometimes they call her “Madamn Jeune,” an affectionate name for an older woman working with small children. Ericka is very good with small children. She has great patience. She is now 17 and still has a speech problem. Ericka’s mother became ill right after she was born, probably due to eclampsia. When Ericka’s mother...
Everyone needs a place where they can feel calm.
