PASTOR CLAUDE RECEIVED HIS COCONUT TREES! HE IS SO FUNNY! I'm so excited for Pastor Claude and his orphan children. We gave him four coconut trees this week that Wilner Exil and his crew, along with our Agriculture Training Center students, grew in these pots inside our shade houses. Thank you, Joe Perkins, for several shade...
“Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of host.” 1 Samuel 17:45 Some of you may be facing a giant in your life today, and you feel so much smaller....
Little Lucson is now nine and still small for his age. He is in 5th grade and “super smart!” He too was from that high mountain that we started working in, called “Belle Fontaine.” When his mother died of “childbirth fever,” his father knew he could not care for him. All mountain babies are breastfed...
You guessed it! Those crazy girls just finished their 1,000-piece puzzle!! They were yelling, screaming, and dancing all the way downstairs to show the boys “ the winners!” I’m sure you could have heard them, even from where you are!! Meanwhile, the boys were trailing badly! But, they are still determined to finish! These kids...
I started a contest between the boys and the girls here at our Love A Child Children’s home. I bought a 1,000-piece puzzle for the girls and one for the boys. I tried to find a 5,000-piece set but maybe they don’t make those anymore. The group that wins and finishes their puzzle first gets...
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...

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...
Years ago, we discovered the village of "Sapaterre," Haiti. (Sa-pa-terre means "That's not dirt!") We had sent in Peter and Joseph, who had helped us in our Mobile Clinics, in the prayer area. 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. During one evening crusade in Carrefour, Haiti, I had around 10,000 people in attendance. I will never forget a lady right up front, a lady that held her baby high above her head and said with a loud voice,...
