This morning we left for the mountains of Mapeki. Wow! What a rough trip through the mountains...we were "above the clouds!" The roads were "really rough and extremely dangerous.” We drove on the edge of cliffs, nearly all the way up! Pastor Souffrance, who works a lot with us, along with Peter, and Joseph (a...
We’ve just returned from up high, deep within the mountains. We took meals to a village where we have never been before. Plus, we cooked big pots of hot food for the children—what a joy to see their smiling faces. Later on this afternoon, be looking for some pictures and a short report. You will...
Haiti is in such a crisis for food due to the political turmoil here. It is difficult to explain what these people and children go through every day, just to survive. We love feeding and caring for the “orphans and widows.” These widows, mothers, and children are from one of the many organizations that we...
"Beside Many Waters..." Have you ever read a scripture and really "overlooked" its meaning until you heard someone preach about it or talk about it? You may then say, "Wow, I've read that scripture but just didn't realize what it meant." A friend of ours, Pastor Mark Ostrander (who works with us here in Haiti),...
Poor little Stephano. When he was a baby, his mother was in prison here in Haiti. She was finally released, but could not take care of him. His father abandoned him and he was taken to the Social Services Department of Haiti. I have always believed that Stephano's real father was Dominican. We don't know anything...

Also, at the ATC, we have continuous demonstration gardens, our edible plant nursery,...
Thank you! We just distributed Feed My Starving Children meals over in the Old Letant Village. With the help from our friends, we do this monthly and in many other villages. The cute little schoolgirls in the blue and yellow uniforms are our Love A Child school children. Thank you for these life-saving meals. Love is something you do!...
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...
