You may have read the story of Jonas, the little boy we met in the village of Manacou. He had been working hard in the gardens with the men of the village when we met him. His parents were both dead, and he had no family to take him in. He slept in the bushes...
“The Story of Jonas” While our "feeding team” was preparing for a food distribution in a new village, they met this little boy, Jonas. Jonas was born high in the mountains of a village called Manacou, near Peyi Pouri. (It takes a “four-wheel-drive vehicle” to get there.) We noticed this little boy working hard in...
There are so many hungry children in Haiti that it is impossible for Love A Child to feed them all. We have many villages that we are feeding, some very far away, some in the mountains, some in the L’Artibonite area (a tough, dangerous road to travel), and many other areas. We also have many...
The winds are blowing, and the sea is rough! Is the Lord talking to you this morning? Do you feel like you are in the middle of a storm? Are the winds blowing, and the sea rough? One time, when Jesus was asleep in the bottom of the boat with his disciples, a huge storm came up. The disciples woke him...
Jonas, a Serious Mechanic... At the age of 18, Jonas Alce is loving basketball, soccer....and especially working with the mechanics. (This would-be "job security" because vehicles here are always breaking down!) We found Jonas during a Mobile Medical Clinic in the mountains of Demesseau. His mother died, and his father could not take care of...
The Village of Manacou... Early this morning, we left for the mountains of Manacou, Haiti, with two "troop carriers full of food" and two more four-wheel-drive vehicles. (We tried to send a post early before we left, but due to internet connections, or lack of, it did not go through). This poor village has a...
“Just fill in the cracks!” Have you ever noticed how some people don’t want to do the “little things?” They want to be on the platform, or on the radio, or where people can see them, but they don’t want to do the small things. Here in Haiti, many poor people live in mud huts...
Mikalange is the twin of “Mika.” (We have two Mikas… so we named the other one, “Ti Mika.”) The twins were born high in the mountains of our “furthest, hardest to reach,” village, Covant. Many poor mothers in Haiti die in childbirth, especially when they are having twins or triplets. The mother’s health is poor...
These little darling children, Mona and Micheline, have never been to school. They have never had "three meals a day," and many days, they have not had "one meal." They live far in a mountain province, in a poor village deep in the mountains of Haiti. The majority of the women in this village do...
I just loved this note below that Wilner sent me last evening: Good evening Big Boss. I think we are fine with Jesus. These are pictures of the vegetables we harvested for the clinic kitchen, pikan kitchen, and Big Manman's kitchen. Spinach, green papaya, pepper, etc. The seed came from Hope Seeds. Wilner is the...
