Today the people were so desperate to receive tents in an area called Barade. This area is very deep in the interior, a forgotten people... but not now! So many touching stories of families receiving tents... Love is something you do! - Bobby Burnette
Yesterday our team was in Lazile giving out tents. This area is one of the worst-hit areas from the earthquake. The truck left at daylight in the rain with 240 tents for the families of Lazile. Hubert already had the location of where each tent would go, the name, and how many were in each...
DON’T BE DISCOURAGED, JUST KEEP ON WALKING! “Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” Joshua 1:9 Have you ever felt like giving up? Ever said I’m discouraged and I don’t see...
Jolina is turning out to be a special young lady. She loves church and singing! She is also a very good student. She works hard and studies hard, but look out boys, she plays hard too! She is tough at basketball and soccer! She has been known to “mow down” a couple of her big brothers....
This morning at the crack of dawn, Hubert, Joel, Watson, and more of the Haitian team will leave for Lazile, one of the hardest-hit earthquake areas, to start putting up tents for the earthquake victims who lost everything. Hubert, along with his men, has gone ahead and so far have charted 1,300 locations of families...
"Stay by the Stuff." Soldiers are made for battle. When a war is going on, they get "itchy" and they want to go, no matter how dangerous it is. And, don’t you remember when you were a child, your mother or father had said to you, "you stay here and watch the stuff…" But, you would...
We have been living and working here in Haiti for many years. When we first moved to Haiti, I thought we had seen the worst... but now, through the years and especially these last few years, it has gone "from bad to worse." We not only have gangs blocking the roads so that the poor cannot...
“How to Handle Your Enemies.” We all have enemies, let’s face it. Most times, it is because of jealousy. David had enemies too; in fact, King Saul was “number one” on the list… all because of jealousy. David prayed this prayer, “Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against...
The children at our Children’s Home all love “Poppie Bobby!” Here you see little Ginyia and Noah! Ginyia’s mother died during childbirth. Her father left and her grandfather couldn’t help. He told Ginyia’s sister to go and find someone to take care of the baby. That’s when we got Ginyia. Noah was found at our...
Thank you for your prayers. This morning, our driver, Casimi, made it through "Martissaint," one of the most dangerous areas in Haiti. Yesterday they burned a "bullet-proof car," and many days, they have their rifles pointing out of windows to shoot at the drivers, especially semis, pulling containers. They want to steal them. Our container...
