I have never met such a sweet, kind, and humble child like Jonas. We were actually doing a TV program when we saw a little boy, who looked like he was six or seven, out in the heat of the sun, working with grown men. He had a heavy, long Haitian rake called a wou....
More good news. Last week, the Love A Child (LAC) office sent the money to purchase a new 4x4 heavy-duty food truck in Haiti. The dealership is building a box on the back of the truck to hide the food as we travel down the road. We have not been able to purchase the truck...
I love doing mobile clinics in Haiti and “the regions beyond.” It has been hard to have the Mobile Clinics because when we buy medicines, we have to buy them from Port au Prince and it is hard to get the medicines through the gang areas. But now, we have the medicines. We just have...
Good Day - Good News - Good Things to Come! Praise God! Good things are happening at Love A Child. A box truck full of medicines, dialysis materials, and much-anticipated Christmas presents will be on its way to the border early tomorrow morning. The fully loaded cargo truck will make the 5-hour trek tomorrow. A...

With a sad heart, we just found out we cannot cross the Mal-Passe border into Haiti. Can't tell you how bad we feel. We could travel further North and cross another border, but the problem is we would never make it through the gangs traveling back to Fond Parisien where Love A Child is located....

Sherry and I are safe in Santo Domingo and working on plan B to get to Haiti tomorrow. We are not giving up. Look who we met this evening in Old Colonial Town! Jesse and Kim Ostrander, and Farmer John! We had a wonderful dinner and fellowship. We need your prayers this week. We love...
Colin was just a small boy when someone came running to our orphanage shouting that a young boy had a badly burned hand! We brought the child in and our doctor treated his burned hand. He noticed that bits of charcoal clung to his wound. The young boy said, “My mother was cooking rice. We...
Here we are at the Miami Airport preparing to board the plane for Santo Domingo. We are now working on "Plan B" trying to get into Haiti to have Christmas with the children and all the Love A Child staff. We miss them dearly. If it's God's will, He will open the door or close...
