God Lifts Up… God Brings Down… Nothing is in the hands of man. When God wants to lift someone up, promote them, nothing can stop it! When God wants to bring someone down, no one can stop it! “For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. But God...
Bobby and Sherry are still in the devastated areas around the western port city of Jeremie, working with local leaders there to distribute massive food aid and other relief goods.

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16 During a time like this, when so many Haitians have been devastated, now is the time to show the love of God. People are watching you and me, the world is watching us. When we do good unto...
So many Haitian families have lost their little houses in the earthquake. It has been unbelievable, all the requests that have come in from all over the southern part of Haiti. They are truly desperate, not only for food but for shelter. I know because we have seen this with our own eyes. Once a family is given a tent, they will live in it until they can...

We are here in Jeremie, one of the areas affected by the earthquake. Yesterday, the workers began unloading the boat of rice (6,000 sacks), cooking oil, beans, and...
“What’s Love Got to Do With It?” Tina Turner sang that song and made a hit record. Yet, she never understood that love, the “real love,” or the lack of love, has everything to do with everything that affects the whole world. In fact, you can sum up the crime problem by saying, “it starts...
What a great kid he has turned out to be!!! When I think about the first time we saw Nelson, it still brings tears to my eyes... His Voodoo parents were so mean to him... setting him on the ground in the hot sun, with no water, and this poor child was not able to...
This is Jesse Ostrander in the yellow hat in Lasile, near the Nippes area. He arrived yesterday with a small team and today, he and the team have been distributing rice, beans, cooking oil, and milk. We have split our teams so we could work in two areas at one time. Jesse said, “The need...
