We are proud of our Love A Child kids working so hard. Today was not a school day, so we said, “Everyone works! Scrub and mop the floors, and then clean your closets!” They didn’t have enough scrub brushes for everyone but they all worked somehow! This is a large “children’s home” so there was...
Thank you, dear friends, for sponsoring food to come to Haiti for the children!! This is just "one" of the areas where you have helped so much! You shared with us, and we shared with others. One of these wonderful organizations we shared with was "Haitian Hope in the Mountains." When we all "share" what...
Yesterday, our Agricultural Training Center received a special gift from a special missionary friend of ours, Corey Thede. Corey is a sustainable agricultural specialist who has been serving in Haiti with his wife, Dr. Kris Thede, for many years. Corey has been growing some Mulberry trees as part of his missionary work, and yesterday he...
"Just How Thirsty Are You?" Have you ever had an "unquenchable thirst?" Maybe a long walk in the hot sun, a rough climb up the mountain, or something strenuous? You can't wait to get to water? So many times here in Haiti, especially in our earlier years, we drove so many junk vehicles and we...
Sustainability! Meet Farmer John and some of his wonderful Haitian crew. Farmer John has the best meat in all of Haiti. Best chicken, goat, beef, and hog! Farmer John’s slaughterhouse is inside our Gwo Mache Mirak (Grand Miracle Market) that we built for the Haitian people for a sustainability project. Helping Haitians help themselves! John...
Bobby (Poppie) can never sit down on the porch without kids crawling all over him, hugging him, or giving him a “foot rub!” Ha! Noah, age four, was near death when he was left at our front gate. Now, he’s alive, “smart as a whip,” and “loves to dance!” He is a “hugger” and always...
Yum! It’s the same in any language! Good food brings smiles on the faces of hungry children. None of us can feed them all, and that’s why the Lord wants us to work together. We have no little kingdoms, but we all serve “The Kingdom of God!” Love A Child shares food and other items...
Update happenings: Today we are giving out big tilapia fish and Feed My Starving Children meals to six more villages today! The people are so appreciative for the fish and meals. It's a happy day here in these villages! Pictures later… Jesse Ostrander (Mark Ostrander's son) has been in the Dominican Republic for these last few days. This has been a...
Jealousy, an evil spirit: It started in the garden... "And the Lord had respect unto Abel and to his offering: But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth and his countenance fell...And it came to pass...that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him." (Genesis...
Lucson, Nelson, Colin, Jameson, and Ti David have discovered “dominoes!” They are young but learning quickly how to “slap those dominoes down hard on the table!” (It’s a mental thing! A show of force!!) They love it. I can see what’s in Ti David’s hands and he’s happy about it! Most older guys in Haitian villages are very serious...
