Jovanie has come a long way, and we are so proud of her! We first took her in when she was about six years old. She had red hair from malnutrition. Her aunt had told us that her mother died, but later, we found that she was alive and could not take care of her....
He had never had a mud hut (kay pay) that even the poorest Haitians have...Jonas slept alone, in a field. He has never had "friends" to play with. He has never slept in a bed. He has never had a toy or a ball to play with. He has never had a father or mother that...
"The Child Outside Your Door…" The Haitians have a lot of Creole proverbs that have good truths to them. One of them goes like this, "The child who cries outside your door, and the child who cries inside, are the same." One rich young ruler once asked Jesus this question, "… And who is my neighbour?" (Luke...
Dieubon...Our Haitian "Spongebob!" It was just like yesterday that we saw this crippled little boy with his club feet "turned around." We had a Mobile Medical Clinic and a friend of ours, Dr. Chester Falterman, was there working in our clinic. When he saw Dieubon (age 7), he offered to find a doctor, hospital, and...

Remember all those eggs they colored yesterday? Well, today, late in the afternoon was the big Easter Egg hunt! The older children "hide the eggs" but make sure that there are some in plain sight for little kids, i.e. Zoey and Zachary, and then, of course, out came the "four…” Noah, Ti Samuel, Kenzy, and Joshua! All the...
Kristela is growing up and doing a great job! She was born in the mountains of Savaan Pit, Haiti. When I had a Mobile Clinic, her mother was pregnant with Kristela. Her mother was involved in Voodoo, and also her grandmother and great-grandmother! You would think that this "Voodoo spirit" would have been passed down...
What a great time our Love A Child kids had “coloring Easter eggs,” yesterday! They spent hours meticulously decorating and drawing on them! I left the older girls in charge and told them how to put the little pill in a cup with warm water and hold the eggs until they turned the color, but...
He has risen!! Because Jesus rose from the dead so shall we unless Jesus returns first! “So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption!” 1 Corinthians 15:42 "We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of...
