Ada was one of three children "dropped off" at Love A Child by their aunt. She told us they were all from Cap Haitian and that their parents drowned in a boat going to the States. But, of course, we have no proof of this. All we know is that we inherited three sweet children... Bianca, Ada,...
Thank you for your prayers for Dieuferly! He is doing much better today. He will probably have about five bad days with pain, but pain medicine helps. He is doing “very well!” His surgery on his bad clubfoot was yesterday. The doctors are doing the worst foot first. As soon as this one heals, they...
Mark Ostrander and the guys are putting a roof on the larger kitchen and a newly expanded back room for the medical staff dorm. Soon all will be moved in!! The painters are painting the inside now. PTL! All the needs have been met. Thank you, Bobby Burnette
This note came from Wilner yesterday while we were in the hospital with Dieuferly. Wilner is the head of our Agricultural Training Center. He and his crew have been doing an excellent job! Dear Big Boss, How are you? This is the ATC team that works in different areas! In the Ofelia Garden (Children's Home)...
The Power of Prayer: Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. -Matthew 7: 7 - 8 If ye shall ask any thing...
Thank you all for your prayers! Ever since Dieuferly was three years old, he has been suffering from bad surgeries that were done on his club feet. They were done by the military during the embargo. Since then, Dieuferly has been in constant pain. We found some doctors in the Dominican Republic but when they...
When I first heard Jolina's story, I was shocked! She came from the mountains of Haiti, like many of the other Love A Child children have. Her father was murdered (shot), and her mother nearly had a nervous breakdown, with nine children to feed. Her mother brought Jolina and her cousin Daphlina, to our orphanage...
Dr. Victor Rosario just sent us this picture. The doctors just started surgery! This is a very complicated procedure. Our first two doctors would not do the surgery. We have heard Dr. Victor is the best. Please pray for Dieuferly’s surgery. There is power in prayer. God bless RL, Vanessa, his wife, Philimond, and Joker, who...
We are still here at the hospital in the Dominican Republic. It is really well organized, nice and clean. Everyone seems to really care about the patients. They have done all of Dieuferly's pre-op stuff, and as soon as the doctor arrives, he will go into surgery. The surgery will take about two hours. He...
We just got these adorable pictures from our Birthing Center! This glowing mother is so proud of her baby! She comes from a very poor area. She would never have had the opportunity to have her baby in a beautiful clinic, with Christian music playing and rocking chairs on the porch for “nervous dads and...
