A bitter root will produce bitter fruit… “Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled.” Hebrews 12:15 Bitterness in the Bible is spiritual poison. Sometimes those who have hurt us in the past have allowed a root[…]
Jackson now 12 years old is in school and is in the 6th grade! His uncle brought him to us in Savaan Pit where we had gone to do a Mobile Medical Clinic. I had never seen a little boy who had such a HUGE stomach! He was suffering from kwashiorkor malnutrition. We brought him home with us because we knew he would die a slow death in the mountains. He is such a sweet boy. Jackson still has a severe kidney problem and is on expensive medicine for his kidneys. We cannot get him to the States now for the treatment he needs,[…]
Little Maranatha was brought to our Jesus Healing Center by Leny, a young Haitian man we know that works in a village nearby. He had a lady from the village carry little Maranatha in her arms. Leny and his organization, Hotes Foundation, have done a lot of great work in Haiti! It seems that Maranatha’s young mother who is 16 or 17 had this baby and the father left her. Then, she got with another man who didn’t want the baby. We know very little about what has been done to the baby because no one in the village is talking. We do know that she had malnutrition and that her leg was broken. Someone took her to[…]
This one-year-old baby, little Maranatha, was brought to our Jesus Healing Center now. (This picture is not clear because the lighting was bad. We were in the room of our old dental clinic, being used as a doctor’s office.) You will hear the full story of this child who has[…]
“No man, having put his hands to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of God.” Luke 9:62 “Elisha” means “God is salvation.” Elisha had a yoke of oxen, and was ploughing in a field with others. His was one of the twelve “yokes of oxen.” He[…]
PTL! Thank you for your prayers. Our 1st40-foot container of Feed My Starving Children arrived at 7:30 p.m. this evening. Casimi said he had a tough time getting here with the trouble on the streets, but he made the journey safely. Bobby Burnette
Stanley… It’s hard to believe, but at one time, Stanley was actually a skinny little kid! He had come to us from an orphanage in Cape Haitian. Their Creole is a little different than in other parts of Haiti, and when he got here, all I heard was “ki nam?”[…]
Jesse Ostrander has been in the Dominican Republic all week, preparing our Love A Child missions house for future trips. We also work in the Dominican Republic, ministering and feeding the Haitians in the bateys (sugar cane camps) where Haitian families live and work. The last week of this month,[…]
We just are so, so thankful to International Aid for their gift of the very best disinfectant and cleaning items, Betco. This is Dr. Barthelemy, the head of our Jesus Healing Center clinic. He was so excited to receive this gift. We use this every day in our clinic and in[…]
But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind: And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just. Luke 14:13-14 In life we want to do things for people who can pay us back,[…]
