Praise the Lord! Casimi and the rice made it safely to Love A Child this evening. He had some close calls, but the Lord protected him. Thank you for your prayers. Now we must get the food to the people, especially the children. Bobby Burnette
You may already know Jean Edwouard’s story of how he came to us. We were doing a food distribution in the village of Old Letant. I noticed a little boy, carrying water, gathering sticks, and making a fire to cook food. He was only six years old. He was a “restavek slave child.” His name...
We need your prayers! We are in the process of picking up 42,250 pounds of rice at the Port-au-Prince port to be distributed to the Haitian people. We cannot give you the day or time this week (for security reasons). Please pray for our driver Casimi who drives our semi-tractor with our 40-foot container that...
No, not that kind of cane...sugar cane! This sugar cane came from our Agricultural Training Center outreach! Fruits and vegetables are expensive at times here in Haiti and we don’t know what we would do without Wilner, Mr. Rad, and our ATC program! Getting sugar cane in Haiti is like us getting a box of...
Bobby and Sherry would like to apologize for the lack of posts today. Internet in Haiti is very spotty and sometimes our content gets lost! We will be back online as soon as the Lord straightens the path. Have a blessed day!
God will restore the years the cankerworm hath eaten! “And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.” Joel 2:25 I really feel within my heart that this scripture is for several of you today. The Word of the...
Our sweet “Widely” (Widlene) is now 19. She had been with us since her mother, Madamn Jesula, came to the gate of our house in Haiti, where we lived many years ago. Her mother had brought her two young daughters with her to tell us that she “was dying” and wanted us to take her...
"Tears in My Eyes…" The story of Garvens…I was called to our Jesus Healing Center clinic today, and what a shock I had! I have seen a lot of malnourished babies before, but none as bad as "Garvens Michel." His young mother brought him to our clinic after she had taken him to another clinic...
Every Haitian lady loves baseball caps!!! You can usually see them "singing in a church choir" with baseball caps on! They love them! Today, we shared baseball caps and "handbags" with pregnant mothers at our Birthing Center! They were so happy when they left for home! It would be "rare" for these mothers to find...
LIFE IN HAITI This morning at 5:00 a.m., our 200,000-watt generator (Big Blue), which runs most of Love A Child, including our Children’s Home, would not start. The motor is completely finished. It has well over 20,000 hours on the motor. I told our mechanic no problem, start Big Daddy, our backup generator. Well, the...
