“Fly into that storm!” Sometimes it’s hard for us to face a difficult problem or situation. In fact, many people run from their problems or try to hide from them! But that won’t help! That problem, that hurt, that situation, or whatever it is, will not just “go away.” When Bobby was learning to fly,...
About 17 years ago, a Haitian lady, who sold trinkets on the street, told us about a baby girl whose father abandoned her. The baby's name was "Lovely." We were told that her mother had HIV and also had abandoned her. So, we took Lovely in. She had a lot of health problems, and it...
These precious children are just some of the ones who are receiving food each day from one of our missionary partners, "Second Chance."

This, of course, is hard for non-believers to think about how a man could survive "being thrown into a den of...
About 15 years ago, Bobby and I got a phone call from our Haitian Director, Nelio Barthelemy. He said that we would need to take in another baby. Most of our children have come to us due to the fact that their mothers died during childbirth or immediately after. So I asked him, “Where is...

He is also overseeing the building of the new medical staff housing dorm. A lot of good things are happening. I’m so...
“If God be for us, who shall be against us?” We are facing many things today that we have never faced before. Some people are discouraged, some are angry, and some feel like “giving up!” Do not despair. This is all part of God’s plan. He knows the beginning and the end. You may feel...
