Protect your name... “A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.” Proverbs 22:1 There are two things the Lord has taught me through the years… our most valuable assets are our name and our health. We must protect our name and our health. Our good name represents Christ and His...
Rebecca. What can we say? She is 13 and in 7th grade. She is just "beautiful!" Her favorite thing is the "Praise and Dance" team! She knows all the steps, exactly! Rebecca is built like an athlete, she is strong. She loves sports, but yet, she will jump rope with the little girls. Music is...
We love our wonderful clinic and our beautiful Birthing Center, but those babies in our Malnutrition Center are so sweet. As their health gets better, they develop little personalities. We have in-patients who stay with us until they reach their desired weight. We also have about 50 "out-patients" at this time. We had a new...
Update on Dieuferly. Dieuferly D'or is now 22. We found him while doing a Mobile Clinic in the mountains of Belle Fontaine, Haiti, (nickname, Coven).

You can't find it, unless you know where it is. The village of Madamn Bauje is barren and has lots of thorn bushes. It is hidden from sight from the main road. The majority of people here try to sell "something," to make a living. We have drilled for water several times but only found...
How Can We Preach the Gospel in a Voodoo Village? We first visited Despeezo years ago when we were going to do a Mobile Clinic. This village is not far from other villages where we work, Madamn Bauje, Cotin, etc. We noticed a large Voodoo house, (tonnel), with lots of drawings on it. There are...
“Only the shoes know if the socks have holes...” A Haitian Creole proverb. Well, one thing is for sure... these beautiful new black school shoes will hide any "holes" the socks may have!! Getting heavy-duty black school shoes for the children is a real problem here in Haiti. In the United States, kids can wear...
"Give Up and Let Jesus Take Over." "And behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind Him, and touched the Hem of His garment; For she said within herself, If I may but touch His garment, I shall be made whole."
