And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.” Matthew 5:41 In the days of Jesus, the Jewish people were made to carry the heavy load of a Roman soldier if asked, "one mile," but only one mile. Jesus said, "If someone compels you to carry a load or to go 'one mile,'...
We have "three sets of twins" here at Love A Child! (That, alone, is enough to put me in a "straight jacket!" HA!) Seriously though, they are good children… it's just that some of them are "quieter" than others! Mika and Mikalange are twins. Mika, is the "slow-moving, quiet twin." She is studious, focused, and...
We welcome Pastor Mark Ostrander today to Haiti. He was also here last week, he left on the weekend, and he’s back today! He is working with our Haitian crew remodeling the old Jesus Healing Center into our new Love A Child offices. Which will save us a lot of money. He is also overseeing...
This is what breaks the heart of a missionary. Early this morning, I walked by our front gate when I saw these mothers with their babies sitting on the curb outside the big gate. They were dirty and dusty and had come a long way. Suddenly, a crowd gathered to look on. There were guys...
"The Lord looks inward, while man looks outward. For the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart."

Just look at what our Agricultural Team is doing!!! When we first moved on to this property, we thought it was the "ugliest property in Haiti!" It had nothing but thorn trees and huge, long dry needles that stuck in our boots! But, after a while, we cleared the land and found out that the...
"He looked beyond my fault, and saw my need..." What a powerful song written and sang by Dottie Rambo. Sherry and I are up every morning by 3:30 a.m. By 4 a.m. Sherry has all the old songs cranked up. Songs that touch your heart, your very soul. We just love this song by Dottie Rambo. I love...
Fabiola was just a baby or close to a toddler when her mother died. Her father had to take care of her and her brother, Wiggins, but he also had to make a living. He left the children for "days" when looking for work, and the children became malnourished. So, he turned the children over...
We love sharing what food we have, with other missionary organizations. We would all be very wrong if we thought we don't need each other. We want to thank Feed My Starving Children for donating this food to feed hungry children, and we want to thank Joyce Meyer Ministries — Hand of Hope for sponsoring a 40-foot...
