What sweet gifts to poor mothers!!! Here are some precious mothers in our Birthing Center. They never knew they would all be receiving a pair of the "best-made sandals" in Haiti. They also received shoes and "onesies" for their new babies; the onesies say, "I'm a Little Blessing!" These sandals and shoes came from our...
We have five Feed My Starving Children containers in customs right now. We have three more containers of FMSC meals coming in next week. This will be 2,176,000 meals for the Haitian people, especially the children. The Haitians are rejoicing! I woke up this morning thinking about the many families in the interior who woke...
THREE PROMISES! “He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.” Proverbs 22:9 “There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that watereth shall be watered also himself." Proverbs 11:24-25 “He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack:...
It’s hard to imagine that this sweet little baby in his father’s arms was about seven years old! Unbelievable! He definitely had the worst malnutrition, a killer called “Kwashiorkor!” His legs were actually “splitting open” with fluid. He was losing his hair. He looked “fat,” but that’s deceitful. He was fed the wrong kinds of...

Construction is going on every day, and we...
“For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.” Isaiah 25:4 The Haitian poor must depend on the Lord for everything… when their...
Today is Widlene’s Birthday! She is 20 years old and we love her so much, and are so proud of her! She is now attending University INUKA here in Haiti and is taking Management. She is a great “organizer” and always dependable! She is a wonderful help to me at the Love A Child Children’s...
When we first moved to Haiti, we spent lots of time, visiting mothers with children in poor villages. Those poor villages had no clinic, no doctor, or nurse, or even a small clinic. When mothers had their babies, they were born on the ground, on a dirt floor... with maybe a dirty sheet. The local...
“God’s Big Hands.” Nelson is a little boy we rescued from the village of Old Letant. His parents were evil. When he was only about two, his parents would sit him on the ground in the heat of the sun. He could not walk or talk. He would sit on the ground on his knees, no...
