This is Rachael; her real name is Nazalie. She is one of our Love A Child children. About six months go she developed a bad head infection that looked a lot like impetigo. Our Children’s Home's head began sending her weekly to a “skin doctor,” as she called him. He was about three hours away...
There is nothing as sweet as watching little Haitian children eat! These children are in an orphanage run by our friend David Wine. It is hard for many missionaries to get the food they need for their children, and we love sharing what God has blessed us with. Each month, as God provides, we share...
Work is being done on the medical staff housing, where 49 people will live during the week while the new Jesus Healing Center is open. Most of the staff do not have cars, and it’s too dangerous to go back and forth. We want to take good care of the medical staff because they take...
“Angels Unawares…” I believe that three times in my lifetime, I have experienced the presence of Angels. The Bible says we have “Angels” watching over us. Gideon was a young man in the country of Israel. The Midianites had destroyed everything the Israelites had, crops, sheep, oxen, etc. The children of Israel went and “hid themselves” in caves of the...
It seems like yesterday that Noah was found at our gate here at Love A Child. He had been abandoned, probably by his mother. He had been beaten, had teeth marks on his body, and scars from where he had been beaten. Noah had no hair, and he had severe malnutrition... Noah required lots of...
We just dedicated our Malnutrition Center two days ago, but there is a lot to do before we can open it (within two weeks) for those little ones. Operating a Malnutrition Center is much more “fragile” than a clinic. These babies and toddlers are on the brink between life and death. Everything must be in...
We love giving food to hungry families and children. We receive food from our friends at Feed My Starving Children. This food is so nourishing for the children. We appreciate every single partner who helps us with food because when you put your gifts together with others, it helps so much. We want to thank Pastor...
"Following Directions." Mankind has always been bad about "following directions." It started in the garden of Eden when the Lord said, "You can eat of every tree in the garden, but of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat." Genesis 2:17 Fast-forward to II Kings Chapter Five. What a story....
Dieubon is such a funny guy! He came to us when he had really, really deformed clubfeet; he was about the age of five. We sent him to the states for surgery and he stayed in the home of our dear friends, Doc and Debbie, for about two years. When he came back to Haiti,...
We love all the children here at Love A Child, but the older girls have a special love for “Poppie.” He is more than a father to them. They “dote” on him! On Sunday, almost everyone walks to church, but some of the older girls find it difficult to walk in heels (so they say!)...
