In the midst of all that's going on in Haiti, COVID-19 virus, political uprisings, the "Papaya Gang," and all of the sad things that are happening in the States, riots, etc., somehow the Lord gives us peace in the middle of chaos. In Haiti, we gave beautiful new dresses, food, toys, and other items to...
DON'T GIVE UP! “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58 Stedfast, unmoveable, are the two keywords here. Sometimes we all feel like just giving up. We must keep our eyes on Jesus. Keep going forward....
Fabienne is our 21-year-old sweetheart! She came to us when she was about six years old. Her mother was working for us and we had to let her go. She “left” Fabienne, so we have raised her. As far as she is concerned, her “Poppie Bobby” is the only father she has ever known. Fabienne...

David heard that a man named, "Nabal," (a wicked, mean, rich man) was sheering his sheep nearby, and Nabal owed David a favor. David...
Georges... My favorite thing about him is his sweetness, his shyness, and his great smile. He is one of the hardest-working kids at our Love A Child Children's Home. Years ago, I went to a large pharmacy in Port-au-Prince to buy medicine. The ladies behind the counter knew me and knew that we had an...
Dr. Jean William “Bill” Pape, who is co-president of the president’s commission on COVID-19 response along with the director-general of the health ministry, said, “At present, the COVID-19 disease is so prevalent in Port-au-Prince that you do not need to be tested anymore."

Current Haiti update: As you know we have been held up in Fort Lauderdale, FL waiting for the signature from a high official in the Haitian government for our private plane to land with us in Haiti.
