Two days ago, I had the joy of talking to a Pastor, who is now up there in years. He had just preached a message Sunday, even after having gone through some serious health issues. But, he is a "tough old bird," and of course, he returned to his pulpit. We talked about his message...
Those were the famous and most unforgettable words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Today, those words give our youth the same “chance to dream.” Here in Haiti, things are more difficult... all of our 24 college students had to be sent home to Love A Child due to shootings in the streets near their...
We just arrived home here at Love A Child safe! Sherry and I, along with pastor Mark Ostrander, want to thank you for your prayers. We had to land in Santo Domingo late last night, then this morning we drove several hours to come here. Much too dangerous to land at the Port-Au-Prince airport and...
PTL! The two diesel tanker trucks made it through the gangs just before we would have run out of diesel. The Lord is good all the time. We have paid half down on our solar system for all of Love A Child. Sometime in March, the solar should arrive. By faith, we will have the...
“What’s a Mountain to an Eagle?” Are you facing something “overwhelming” in your life today? We have been through many things, too. Bobby and I have found ourselves with our backs against the wall. We have faced death. We have been “beyond broke,” with bill collectors calling and some trying to repossess our truck while...
Sherry, Mark Ostrander, and I are on the way to Haiti. Please pray for safe travels. This week will be a busy week. Love is something you do! Bobby Burnette
Thank you… we first bought 2,000 tents to help the families who lost their homes in the earthquake. We have been delivering meals ever since. Plus, with your help, we have built 100 strong Gabion houses. South Haiti is desperately in need of food in many areas. Read the note below, which came in this...
Fight the Good Fight of Faith. Just because you have won a battle, it doesn’t mean the “war,” is over. We Christians, are born on the “battlefield.” Some have died “on the battlefield,” and others, are “holding the fort!” Demonic spirits have been turned loose in America and other places. We are now taught, even...
It’s hard for us who don’t live in Haiti, to understand how Voodoo changes the lives of good people. My father was an alcoholic, and I remember how he could grow angry “quickly,” and take it out on my brothers or a family dog. Voodoo can drive a person crazy. Colin’s mother had cooked a...
We welcome Pastor Mark Ostrander this coming week to Haiti. Jesse Ostrander, his son, is there now. Pastor Mark has been to Love A Child in Haiti probably between 500 and 600 times. Pastor Mark is also on the board of directors. This coming week, we will all be very busy along with our wonderful...
