We began our Orphanage many years ago with four children from L'Artibonite, Haiti. We had built a school in this very poor area and often had Mobile Clinics. One day, a person came and told me that a lady was dying... When I went to see her, she was near death. Her husband had died...
Little 11-month-old Vialie Jose sat on the table at our Malnutrition Center waiting for her exam. Her mother, Madamn Palimene, was just 35 years old and already a widow. Her husband had died just a short time ago. Together, they had eight children, two of whom died. The oldest had died at birth, and the youngest...
This is the last of our Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) meals until Customs opens again… when, I don’t know. The kidnappers still have the last man they kidnapped. Hoping and praying every day. Oh, the people and children of New Letant (Kingdom Connection Village). Thank you for your prayers and support. Seeing these precious...
Love A Child’s greatest joy is feeding hungry children; this episode brings you face-to-face with several starving families throughout Haiti. Your heart will be touched as you hear from a girl who struggles with the pain of abandonment, picking up the burden of additional work to get by. A boy sees his father sidelined by...
“But when thou makes a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind: And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.” Luke 14:13-14 Our greatest blessings come on us when we give to those who cannot give back.

Christian was brought to our "Orphanage" when he was about four or five. The Department of Social Services brought him because his mother had died and his father was in prison for life... we don't know why. We first noticed his talent for music when he was about five or six. We had a big...
Look what Bobby bought at Gwo Maché Mirak this morning for 23,000 gourdes ($230 US)! Each Wednesday, the mountain people bring their animals to our Gwo Maché Mirak to sell. This was the first time we had ever seen a donkey for sale. Our horses could not figure out “what in the world it was?”...
We just distributed lifesaving Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) meals to Old LeTant and New Letant. Look at the village of Old Letant. It looks like a picture out of National Geographic magazine. The people were beyond thankful and happy... I love their smiles! Barry, one of our Haitian sons, always helps distribute the meals....
“Enlarge the places of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations; spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left hand…” Isaiah 54:2-3 – Sometimes, we are “afraid” to step out and make changes, or make decisions, or...
Here is another "Bobby Burnett." (Haiti does not add the e on the end of Burnette). This Bobby lost his mother soon after he was born (or perhaps eclampsia) and his father also died. His grandfather did not want him and told his teenage sister to "find a home for the baby." She found us!...
