“You cannot have a harvest without a seed…” We try to teach to teach our Haitian children about giving. We tell them that “even the poorest Haitian” needs to learn how to plant and give. That is something that is hard for them to understand, but we always refer them to stories in the Bible...
We found her in a mud hut village where we were filming our Love A Child TV Program. While waiting to explain “where we were” and how we wanted to help this village, I was sitting on a little Haitian wooden chair, watching a grandma with her grandbaby. The little baby was thin, with tiny...
Enjoy the pictures! Below just came in from Dieuferley, our Haitian son. Dieuferely and Jean Gardy are over our school children's food program. They prepare different daily meals, and their cooks cook the meals. Yum! Enjoy the pictures of the schoolchildren. We are so proud of all our older LAC and the jobs they do...
The boxes of food that Love A Child delivers to the suffering throughout Haiti are more than simple meals; they are a means of survival, reprieves from suffering, and beacons of hope. Entire villages celebrate with joy when we come bearing food, women of all ages walk several miles to secure a box of sustenance,...
Back in the 70’s, there was a belief that went around in Christian circles that said, “Don’t ask God twice! If you ask the Lord more than once, it means you don’t believe.” We never believed that for a moment. Jesus told a story in Luke 18:1-8, about the unjust judge and the widow woman....
I don’t know how he can manage a smile with everything he has been through! Jackson is in dialysis each evening, all night long. He is on a diet that is strict, none of us reading this could stay on it! We found Jackson in the mountains in one of the villages where we had...
After seven days of non-stop rain, while distributing tents to families living in leaking, wet, thatched houses, children came from everywhere--they hadn't eaten in days. With only food for a handful of hungry families, Hubert and the Love A Child team went back to Anse-a-Veau and returned with food to feed 113 very hungry children!...
“There’s power in the blood…” I used to go to churches and hear this song over and over. But, sadly enough, this generation knows little about “power in the blood of Jesus!” As someone described it, “it is now a watered-down gospel!” I know the “new songs are great,” but the older ones were written by...
Sherry has been wrapping presents for our orphans the last few days! Next week, after our Love A Child board meeting, we'll be taking the presents into Haiti. We pray that the Lord will supply the funds so that we can buy many presents for the children in the neighborhood who will receive nothing for...
The first time I saw Mackenson, we were in a Mobile Medical Clinic far away in the mountains. An elderly farmer came in, carrying a toddler; when I looked at his swollen face, belly, and entire body, I knew he had malnutrition, and he had “the worst kind.” I asked his father what he was...
