“The Best Medicine for Sleep…” Anything that you can think of to help you "sleep better" is advertised wherever you look… from Melatonin to vitamins to a "special mattress," or even a better "pillow." Some people can't sleep because of worry... worrying about bills, about what the doctor will say, about your son or daughter, or...
She couldn't have had a more beautiful name… "Lovely." She was abandoned on the street by a lady named "Madamn Cheap Cheap," (which now, I believe, she could have been a relative of Lovely). We were told of this baby and that her mother had died of HIV. Her father had abandoned her, so we...
Next Tuesday, January 12th at 8 AM will be the new "Jesus Healing Center" Dedication! Yesterday, everyone was working so hard preparing for the Dedication and opening. This has been a huge undertaking and the mission is almost accomplished! Thank you, Mark, Jesse, Bryan, and all the great Haitian workers for all their hard work. For...
"Judge Not." It is so easy for people to judge one another, especially Christians. Bobby and I were "very poor," when we were married and we when started our ministry, preaching on the street corners, in projects, and many, many times, in African American churches. I found that when we were preaching in these areas,...
James has been with us since his mother died, soon after he was born. His father could not care for him and brought him and his brother to us. James is quiet, always studying, and never worries if someone says something bad about him. He tells the children, "it's not worth worrying about bad words people...

We are having the Dedication on Monday, January 18th... lots to do before then, but mostly "moving items into the Malnutrition Clinic" and arranging things. We have already hired most of our staff, and as...

"Will the real ‘Dieubon’ please stand up?" Wow, is this really Dieubon, a.k.a. "Sponge Bob," (the kids' nickname for him)? Look at Dieubon all dressed up!!! Hmmm. Where is "he" going??? Dieubon is such a sweet, basically shy, guy. We first met him during a Mobile Clinic and noticed he had horrible clubfeet. Some friends...
"Anpil patat fe chay." It is a Haitian Creole proverb that means, "a lot of sweet potatoes make up the load." That's so true... when all of us put in our "little bit," it becomes a lot, and the Lord multiplies it, just like the little boy's fishes and loaves! When you "share your food...
"Our Dorcas Friends." Everyone can help the poor, whether you give, go pray, or make clothing so that we can send it to Haiti! God has blessed us with the most wonderful, caring people in the world! Each month, we receive handmade dresses, shorts for boys, or baby hats, etc., for the children and people...
