Special thanks to Faith Church. Again, we want to say a special thanks to Pastor David Crank of "Faith Church." They raised funds to buy us a wonderful ambulance, a Toyota Land Cruiser. We have had this ambulance in operation for three years now, running between many hospitals for emergencies. Our Love A Child clinic...
“For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” Galatians 5:14 Just think, all the law is fulfilled in this…“love your neighbor as much as you love yourself.” Wow! That’s a lot of love. Try it today! Do something kind for someone you don’t even...
Will the “real Bobby Burnette” please come forth? On the right of this picture is the other “Bobby Burnette.” He just turned 16! After he was born, both mother and father died. He has never known any parents but us and never known any family except these children here at our children’s home. Now, it...
Today we are making plans to do nothing! Of course, when you live with 85 children, you are always busy! Can't count the knocks on our door this morning. Ha! This week we will be distributing to around 100 organizations coming for their monthly meals. A little over half are orphan homes. Will be distributing meals to other villages and areas. This Friday,...
STOP LOOKING IN THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR...

Philippians 3: 13 & 14 One time a preacher picked me up to go driving with him. I noticed he was...

She watched anxiously as...
This is little 5-year-old Christophe. He said he had no mother or father (they are probably dead). He lives with his grandma in Miracle Village. He had fallen and broke his arm. He attends our Love A Child Christian school. He is such a thankful little boy. He said, “if it was not for Love...
What a great, big, wonderful God we serve, who cares about the poorest of the poor and the smallest. Since the last few years, we have seen more "malnourished children and toddlers" than ever before. We began to "have a dream" of a new Malnutrition Clinic, with the best of doctors and everything we would...
Who’s Holding Up Your Hands? I love the Old Testament stories of faith and miracles! One of my favorites is Exodus 17. Israel was fighting against the army of Amalek. Suddenly, the armies of Amalek were prevailing. So, Moses held up his hand with the rod in it! But when he got tired, the enemy...
Nakou...there is really no translation for this word. It's just the name of one of the villages we started working in, years ago. We had several Mobile Clinics in this village. The village of Nakou is a "rough" village to work in. Of course, many poor mothers struggle each day to feed their children, but...
