Nelson is now 13. It’s a miracle he is alive! I can remember the day I was in “Old Letant,” a village of mud huts. He was about three, but could not walk. His mother would grab him by the arm and drop him onto the dusty ground. He could[…]
Update on Jonas
Jonas… The name “restavek” is common here in Haiti. It means “to rest with,” or “to stay with.” A child who has no parents,” will go to live with a relative. He or she will become a slave. That child will never be treated “like family,” but instead, they will[…]
Word from the Mission Field
“Do Something With Your Faith… Even if it is Small.” We all know how to pray… but do we know how to put our faith into action? In II Kings 4:1-7, we see a widow woman who has a son, but because she owes money and cannot pay, the creditors[…]

Our Esther…

Word from the Mission Field
I wanted to share a remarkable story about “faith versus fear!” We’ve heard this story before, told to us by Johnsy, our I.T. guy, who keeps our internet going. As you may know, gangs have taken over Haiti. Johnsy had to travel through a bad area by “tap-tap” (Haitian truck)[…]
Our Sandraline…
Sandraline has come a long way. She was born in Croix des Bouquets, Haiti… a city that now has been taken over by gangs. When her mother died, her father Fritzner, a young man, had a job fixing bicycle tires. But it was not enough to pay rent and care[…]
