Our heavy equipment operators, mechanics, and several of our pican workers have been teaming up the last few days to move several large shipping containers into one area on the property. Moving about twenty, 40-foot long metal shipping containers is a monumental task. They each weigh several thousand pounds. However, we quickly discovered that underneath...
Good news! We just received word from Feed My Starving Children that in August, they will be sending us 11 forty-foot containers of the "Feed My Starving Children" food, and beginning next month through January, ten containers a month! This is an incredible gift for the hungry children of Haiti! Each container costs us $10,000...
"How long will you dwell in Lo-de-bar?" We have all lived in a "Lo-de-bar" condition sometime or other in our life. “Lo-de-bar” means "without pasture" or a dry desert place. "Lo-de-bar" is only mentioned twice in the Bible. But, the most famous story of this place concerns the grandson of Saul, "Mephibosheth." When David and Jonathan, the son...

This week, Love A Child brings food into an extremely dangerous and violent area in the garbage dump village of Truttier, Haiti. Watch as Bobby and Sherry and their team put on the armor of God, go against the advice of local authorities, and risk their own lives to feed these poor families who sometimes...
Peace in a world full of chaos: “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:7 “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” John 14:27 In this world...
