We are working hard to finish the new Jesus Healing Center! We have a full-time crew working late hours, and trucks are coming in with loads of dirt for the front area. Inside, Pastor Mark and his crew, Bryon and lots of Haitians are at work! This clinic will help save lives! It will have...
In the Bible, King Uzziah was a great king. He ruled over the land of Judah, “and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord.” (2 Chronicles 26:4) He sought the Lord, and God made him prosper...so much so that his enemies, the Ammonites, gave gifts to him. He dug wells...
Poor little Jameson… he is one of the sweetest little boys I’ve ever met. We first saw him when his mother brought him to our Jesus Healing Center here at Love A Child. She had come by boat across the lake. Jameson had such bad eye infections that they were crusted shut and he could...
Some people have asked "why we built a Birthing Center?" I thought I would take a few minutes to explain some of the problems the poor face here in Haiti. Poor Haitian women have "very poor health." They do a lot of the "heavy work," as many walk for miles in the heat of the sun...
This is Kidney. The kids gave him a nickname of “Ti Pikan" or “Little Thorn.” Kidney, like so many of our children, lost his mother when he was very young. His uncle brought him and his brother to our orphanage and asked if we would take them in. And, yes, we did. Kidney had malnutrition...
This morning we had another 40-foot container of 272,000 meals arrive from Feed My Starving Children. Thank you! We are in the process right now of getting 1500 bags of premium rice from the Haiti port. For safety reasons we cannot say the day or time when the meals will arrive. Please pray again for...

By faith, we are hoping to move in by the end of October! Dominican Republic Update: We received a report yesterday from RL from our Villa Hermosa church in...
"He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remains forever. Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both ministereth bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness.” 2 Corinthians 9:9-10 Whatever we give to God, our seed is multiplied back to us. This is the...
Mikalange and her twin, Mika, were the children of Madamn Mercilia. This woman, too, died soon after the birth of her twins, (due to eclampsia, the childbirth fever). These children came from the mountains of Covant, the highest mountain we have worked in here in Haiti. She is the "most out-going" one of the twins....
Church on the porch! This morning here at Love A Child we had to seat some of the church folks on the school porch. Wonderful service! Haitians love to preach and sing! Our church is non-denominational; built for the whole community to serve the Lord. Right now, the tile layers are putting some nice tile...
