Update: Yesterday afternoon we had a 40-foot container arrive with 272,000 Feed My Starving Children meals! Today, we will have another 40-foot container of Feed My Starving Children meals arrive. PTL! Thank you to all of our friends who helped make this possible. Love is something you do! Bobby Burnette
“Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him.” Proverbs 26:27 We all have enemies, whether we know it or not. Some people are jealous of you and they would do whatever they could to harm you. Take the Bible story of Esther, she was the...
Kristela is the “Energizer Bunny,” she is never tired! She is now 19 and in the 9th grade. She has never stopped for anything since she was born! Her mother, grandmother, and great grandmother were all involved in Voodoo and were “Voodoo mambas.” Her mother came to our clinic in the mountains, pregnant and sick....
It takes a lot of work to organize a Mobile Medical Clinic to the mountains of Haiti! If we do the hard work first, we can see a “lot of people” each day! My three helpers are Madamn Jesula, Madamn Denise, and Madamn Roselyne. Alfred has been with us for ten years, and he is actually in charge of all the food that is cooked for workers and teams (when we have them). Alfred is also quick to lend a hand with those heavy boxes of medicines. (I broke my back twice in Haiti lifting them!) Some of these wonderful...
If you didn’t believe the last story, you won’t believe this one... Yesterday afternoon, I got a call to come to my Mobile Clinic room. Our pastor, Pastor Luders, was waiting there with two precious little boys… Jefte Louis, age 10, and his brother, Peterson Louis, age 7. Pastor Luders lives near the parents of...
It doesn't take a whole lot… "… If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you." Matthew 17:20 Jesus also used the mustard seed as a short parable in the Bible. “… The kingdom of heaven is like to...
We “love” feeding the hungry! It takes a lot of work, a lot of organization, and a lot of prayers to feed crowds of hungry families here in Haiti. We are preparing this food to give out next week and the weeks to come. Pictured are some of our workers. Some of them have other...
Nazalie was born in November 2010, the year of the earthquake. Her mother died during childbirth. Her father could not even afford to buy her milk, so we took her in. We didn't like the name Nazalie, so we nicknamed her Rachael but she answers to both. Nazalie loves to dress up, but she also...
You probably saw the picture of the pathetic little Haitian boy yesterday, brought to our Jesus Healing Center, with a horrible abscess. Things like this are some of the things that we see when we have Mobile Medical Clinics in the regions beyond. Right now, we are packing and preparing medications for a trip to the mountains. Yesterday, we heard that the road we are supposed to travel on had been washed out by the last heavy rain, so we sent funds to hire locals to start working on the road. These mountain roads are dangerous, and everything has to be working...
"Don't overlook the crumbs…" Today, many of the larger ministries are concentrating on big things, as they should. They have big ministries and their needs are great. However, we never overlook the importance of the "crumbs," or the small things. "Small things" done in a big way are very important to Jesus. I have read...
