"A Rich Man's Last Chance." I thought about these scriptures many, many times, because I see this story every day here in the country of Haiti. The richest of the rich and the poorest of the poor.

"God I know you love me, and I believe it will be better for me this time and they will be saving hot cookies for everyone." In fact, she became aware of the Love A Child Birthing Center, which has been operating 24 hours a day, since she decided to follow the doctor at the...

Well, we thank the Lord that I had a “negative" Covid Test, after getting a “positive" Covid Test the day before! I’m glad I took the test at a different location because I had no symptoms. We got to Haiti today, and as we came into the orphanage, the kids were climbing all over us,...
