The employees here at Love A Child have some perks to the job. Today all of the workers received a box of food. In addition to receiving regular food allotments for their families, we feed our employees breakfast, lunch, and dinner for those who live here on the compound. In the midst of all this...
“Man Up!” We are living in a generation of Christians, many of whom are always complaining, doubting, and whining even though the Lord has sent us “ the “Comforter,” the Holy Spirit. It is not hard to live for Jesus, even if we are “made fun of,” or “treated unfairly.” That's part of “taking up...
We received word from security personnel at the main road that a young lady was being driven our way for emergency medical care. Thank God in the middle of all this gang violence, the Love A Child Clinic is still open. This morning she was on her way to this area on a motorcycle. Her...
We have some great pictures for you today! Our photographer, Dieuferly, grabbed some pictures of our Haitian children from our orphanage, who were working hard!
