These sweet girls are our Love A Child girls. They do beautiful praise dances in church or at special occasions, or even at home! When I came home the other day, they did a special "praise dance" as I came into the orphanage because they wanted to give me this "gift" for my Birthday! It...
Betina Carla Pierre is now 12 years old and in 5th grade. She does well in school. The kids call her "Deep Eyes," because she has big eyes. She was born after the earthquake in a rough area called "Cite Soleil," or city of the sun. As she grew older her parents didn't have enough...
Casimi made it today with another container of 272,000 life-saving meals from Feed My Starving Children. How he made it only God knows. The gangs are out of control, and the roads are much too dangerous to be on coming out this way. I read this morning that thousands of Haitians are having to leave...

Peter and Joseph had discovered this village of Sapaterre, one of the villages responsible for making those "mud cookies" in Haiti. The...
AN EVENT THAT CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER: When we first started working in Haiti, we would have large open-air crusades.

“Mackenson… This baby began losing weight, but his mother thought it was due to a curse.” Little Mackenson Jean often cried himself to sleep due to hunger. He was just a baby, not even a year old. Little Mackenson is from the village of Belle Fontaine, high in the mountains of Haiti, where Love A...
This week, stories of the marginalized and suffering in Haiti are brought to Bobby and Sherry’s attention. One mother has witnessed her children’s bellies swell and hair turn red with malnutrition; they fight to survive, but you can’t outrun starvation in a fourth-world country. A teenage boy knows what it means to be abandoned by...
Every one of us has an enemy... maybe we don't even realize it. It could even be someone who is "jealous" of you. You can feel that "bad spirit" when you are around them... but God wants us to make our enemies, our friends... The other day when I was in the States, I was...
