Our Love A Child girls “are something else!” They can scrub floors, cook, mop, take care of kids, and do anything… they work hard! When given a job, you don’t have to worry about “will they do it?” This is the same for our “Bianca.” Just look at her with[…]
Here is Mark Ostrander’s crew building for the future! John Eddie is the head of our Haitian crew, and we are building rooms to house future mission teams to come into Haiti. Due to all the gangs, riots, kidnapping, etc., we have not been able to any have teams in[…]
