Samuel is now 17. He is from the mountains of Greffin, Haiti, where we have a church and school. Like many women in Haiti, his mother died during childbirth. She had left behind six children and a husband who worked the fields. His father was not able to care for Samuel and brought the baby...
Sherry stayed home from church to catch up with some work. As soon as I came in and sat down, here comes Zoey and Zachary from the other side of the church. They crawled onto my lap. I told them they had to stay awake and hear the sermon. Ha! Zoey said in English, “I...
We just had a container come in, and when we unloaded it, we found new clothes for the boys!! There were also “new black shoes” in another box for the older boys, but both boxes didn't have names. We want to thank you, with our hearts, those who sent in these beautiful shirts and pants,...

Happy Birthday, Kristela! We can’t believe she is 20! It seems like yesterday we were in that Mobile Clinic in Savaan Pit, Haiti, far back in the mountains! A poor, pregnant woman came to us because she was very sick. We treated her the best we could, but she was “too far gone” for even...
This morning, Pastor Souffrance came down from the mountains of Peyi Pouri to pick up food. In these boxes are 14,300 “meals” for children.
