Graduation from Philo
Haiti has 13 grades in school. The last and toughest is called Philo. Yesterday, three of our Love A Child children were in the graduation event, Bobby, Michael, and Hannah (sometimes she goes by Anna). Our church was “packed full!” We were told it started at 3:00 p.m., and we[…]

Word from the Mission Field
Have you ever lost your footing? Maybe walking on ice, in the dark, in the mud, or on a gravel slope? When this happens, “you are not in control.” The Lord told Jeremiah what would happen to those wicked people who abuse the poor, who lie, and do not trust[…]
