This was a great day for Jonas! Instead of working in a garden in the heat of the day with no food, from sunup to sundown, this sweet lovable little boy will be putting on his school uniform, shoes, backpack, and going to school for the first time in his life! Jonas was a restavek slave...
I never understood this Creole Proverb until we moved to Haiti. We had made many trips for years, going back and forth to Haiti, until one day, God told us to move to Haiti. Since then, we have seen the strength and resilience in the Haitian people and their children. Adults who face horrible situations...
We just got another scratchy phone call from Bobby and Sherry explaining that communication services in Haiti are down. They've been trying to call out to us and send emails since last night, but cannot get anything out. Please excuse their absence from our website and Facebook during this internet problem. They cannot even make...
Bass Pro Shops called the office in Fort Myers yesterday saying our tents which we bought from Bass Pro Shops in the state of WA, will be delivered on Friday in Fort Myers. (These tents were bought directly from the manufacturer who makes them for Bass Pro Shops). On Monday we will have a container...
What if God took a day off? Just think what would happen? First of all, everything would fall from the Heavens. Everything would go "out of orbit," and the galaxy would be no more.

We are so proud of our Love A Child kids!!! All of them that are in Philo (their last year of school) just got their test results and everyone passed! This is really a major miracle to have seven children pass Philo and all of them from one orphanage. We have always stressed, "putting the Lord first and putting your education...
Due to political unrest in the country, and the recent earthquake disaster, we have been unable to conduct any Mobile Clinics. We have been "packed and ready to go," but there were always problems in the way... one of them being the number of gangs in many areas of Haiti. For some time now, Haiti...
Haiti is in the worse food crisis we've ever seen. This is due to economics, gangs in the streets, fear, great political instability, and much more... An over 85% unemployment rate, the earthquake, and the list goes on. The children suffer the most. Our hearts are torn out with sadness. We are thankful to "Feed...
Leviticus 23:22 – “And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not make clean riddance of the corners of thy field when thou reapest, neither shalt thou gather any gleaning of thy harvest: thou shalt leave them unto the poor, and to the stranger…” No matter what kind of job we have...
I'm sitting here in Haiti this Sunday evening, with a sad heart for the people of Haiti. A major city you must go through to come here to Fond Parisien where we live is called "Croix des Bouquet." Yesterday, the police and the gangs were shooting at each other for most of the day. The...
