These are just some of our Love A Child children in front of our church in Fond Parisien! Notice how well the kids are dressed! It is cultural in Haiti to dress nicely for church! We are so proud of our kids! (Lots of them had already left for home when this picture was taken,...
"Whoso stoppeth his ears to the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard." Proverbs 21:13 "There was a rich man, who was clothed in purple and fared sumptuously every day. And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores; And...
Dimelia is such a joy! Her father brought her to us when she was about three. She had been badly burned when she was younger, so when her father brought her to us, she was severely scarred. She was a sad little girl. She could not lift her arms (due to scar tissue) or turn her neck. We sent her to Shriners Hospitals for Children in Boston many times, where she had "several grafts," and suffered a lot. While traveling back and forth, she missed a lot of school in Haiti, but she studied in the U.S. She speaks perfect English and graduated from an English speaking high school, in Haiti, with honors. But her French was not good enough for her to attend university here...
Children are the reason we moved to Haiti! They have stolen our hearts! Special thanks to Pastor Britt, for sponsoring the “Feeding Center,” for the children in the village of Old Letant. This is where they cook and prepare all the food for the children! Most poor children in Haiti do not even get “one...
"Wait Upon the Lord…" Have you ever tried to "hurry God up" or "help God out?" The hardest thing to do sometimes is to "wait upon the Lord."

In I Samuel 10:8, Saul had just been anointed King of Israel by the Prophet Samuel...Samuel had poured oil on Saul's head and then told Saul where to find his lost mules that he had been looking for. Then Samuel said, "And thou shalt go down before me in Gilgal; and, behold I will come down unto thee to offer burnt offerings, and...
We call him Ti Samuel (Little Samuel) because we have an older "Samuel" here at our Love A Child Children's Home. What can I say about this little pistol? He is cute as a button and is missing some teeth. The Department of Social Services brought us a child, and one man had Ti Samuel in...

Join us this week as we follow Madamn Vela and her poor family on their journey from earthly destitution to Heavenly destiny on our latest show, “Mercy for Madamn Vela.” You will witness the utter poverty and misery this poor family had endured their entire lives; how each life event seemed more devastating than the...
“The God of My Mercy” For many years, David was chased and hounded by King Saul, his “number one enemy.” Although David had done nothing wrong, he was hated by King Saul simply because of jealousy. Twice, while King Saul was hunting David, Saul fell asleep in two different caves and David was there, hiding....
Her full name is Yolanda Estima Burnette. Her mother's name was Marie Elmise Hermulus. She was born in the mountains of Covant, where our highest mountain project is located. As with many of our Love A Child kids, her mother died shortly after she was born. Her father was left with six children to raise,...
