Ever sit with your friend's kids at church? Try sitting with Bobby and Sherry's kids. We only sat with about half of them and they took up the whole section! Psalm 122:1: “I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord." Jesse Ostrander
After several Gabion house dedications and a different food distribution in a faraway village, we finally arrived at the food distribution in Ti Rivière (Little River). The problem was that the event was scheduled for 2:00 p.m. When our trucks finally pulled up it was approaching 5:45 p.m. And it was a very hot day…...
“Blind Faith…” “Oh, just shut up and stop your whining…” That’s what the people told Bartimaeus, who was blind. Jesus and his disciples had come into Jericho and then, they were leaving. A huge crowd followed them making a lot of noise and when Bartimaeus heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to...

Some have asked us whether the lions are a long way off when we take their pictures. These lion pictures you see here are probably no more than 5 feet away! We were in an open vehicle with no sides or windows... The secret is they are full. Ha! They had just killed a zebra...
