The Eyes of the Lord... "Except ye abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved." Acts 27:31 Many years ago, before we moved to Haiti full time, we would make many trips back and forth with teams. One of those places was La Gonâve Island in Haiti. The wooden boats were packed with Haitians, animals,...
Jasson... it would be “Jackson,” in English. He is so sweet and always helpful! If we come in with boots from walking in the mountains, he finds them and cleans them. If we get our tennis shoes dirty and lay them outside the door, they disappear… and come back clean. Jackson is now 12 years...
It is a wonderful Sunday afternoon here in Haiti. Bobby and I are enjoying hearing the children singing, dancing, and praising the Lord, as they do in Haiti. They have their own "church service" on Sunday (inside the Love A Child Children's Home), due to coronavirus. The "calling of God," is something that we cannot explain....
GIVING ALMS TO THE POOR: There are three types of giving. 1) tithing 2) offerings 3) alms "There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band. A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always......
Colin... You can see him here washing his hands with Clorox water after he and his “brothers” finished picking up the trash. Colin is 11 years old. He came to us when his father held his hand down in the hot charcoals of a fire. Colin (then, about six) had reached his hand into the...

We just heard from Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) yesterday, they are giving us two extra containers this month of the mana pack meals! This will be...
We have just sent a truckload of food, rice, beans, spices, cooking oil, etc. to the village of L’Estère in L'Artibonite. This is a very poor area and an area of great hunger. Our first four children came to us from this village... Jonise, Julanne, Berry, and Sheline. Most live in mud huts or mud walls...
"Two Sticks, a Little Oil, and a Handful of Meal." Maybe you have come to a place in your life, where you are, or were, struggling financially. Maybe you can remember when you were "down to your last handful of meal," and you didn’t know where the next was coming from. We have been there,...
Look at little Zachary. He is nearly five months old, but he wouldn’t be alive today if we hadn’t rescued him from his Voodoo mother. As many of you know, his mother came to our Mobile Medical Clinic with her baby, Zachary, months ago. She told the doctor she was “sick,” but when the doctor...
We are so thankful for our wonderful friends and partners who send in so many items we need! I was so, so happy to get “hand-made” face masks from our friend Lorraine! Wow! I was so happy to get these!! And another donor sent in “boxes” of new white twin sheets for our single beds! You...
