Some kids call her “Ada,” and some call her Jessica. She and Bianca, her sister, have a brother here, Raphael. They came to us from Cape Haitian.

"Pray for Haiti." “As a roaring lion and a ranging bear, so is a wicked ruler over the poor people.” Proverbs 28:15 We are asking you to take a few minutes every day to say a prayer for the poor here in Haiti. Those that are in control of the country are with the gangs....
We are so proud of our Love A Child kids growing up! George, left, not only helps with our Feeding Programs, but drives our heavy-duty equipment and helps in so many ways. Jean Gardy is one of our accountants. He is “Mr. Cheapskate,” because he doesn’t let us buy anything that is too high! (I...
