"The Spirit of the Lord..." "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon is upon me..." Isaiah 61:1 How many times have we read this scripture and did not fully understand the "power" of the "Spirit of the Lord"? For one year, we have worked so hard to get a "medical visa" for Djonsly Alcin....
Noah is growing so fast and is so big! He could be a football player in the States! Some of you, if this is the first time you have seen Noah, he was found at the outside of our Love A Child gate, beaten and left for dead, at the age of about one. He...
Children in the States take so much for granted... While almost every child has a cell phone and some type of laptop, the parents of children in Haiti struggle to buy a book, a pen, or a pencil. We have been in schools in Haiti where the teacher will break a pencil in half and...
Many times, in the Bible we read about “harvest." It is an important and popular topic throughout the books of the Bible. In Deuteronomy, it tells us “When you are harvesting,... leave some for the fatherless and widows.” Recently Sherry asked our agricultural team to plant extra vegetable gardens for the Children's Home to have...

I don’t think Jonas has ever been seen without a smile on his face! He is the happiest little boy in our orphanage. It has been less than a year since we found him during the taping of one of our television programs. We had gone for a food distribution, and one of our co-workers saw...

The people there have not allowed gangs to enter, especially in the areas where we just came back from... the Nippes area. But in Port au Prince, the capital, the Martissaint Street area, Croix des Bouquets, and some...
This week the Love A Child team takes you into the region of Nippes, Haiti to hear from those who survived the August earthquake. People have been left without possessions, homes, or livelihoods. Despite everything that was destroyed, they cling to the assurance that God will preserve them. For six months now, the widowed, crippled,...
“The Giant and the Giant Killer!” “This day will the Lord deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcasses of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air…” 1 Samuel 17:46 It’s how you see the problem...
Today was a day of miracles for Djonsly Alcin. Many of you have been following his story, from the time he was brought to our clinic in Haiti by his mother, to now. Djonsly came to us with a cancer, pushing his right eye out of its socket. We sent him to the States twice before...
