Kenzy... Here he is, getting his picture taken with his hands in his pockets like a grown-up!! We didn’t think he would live. His mother and father had died and he was near death when we got him. Kenzy has a blood condition and he was always "sickly," and we had to take him to...
Haiti is not the easiest country to live in and work in. The food prices are rising, and people come to our gate all the time asking for food, for a job, for a place to stay, or to take in their child and raise them. The pressure of seeing faces and hearing stories is a lot, and then there are the street gangs that have become stronger each day. It can get discouraging, but then we get pictures from our missionary friends whom we share food with, and...
“Lord, What do You Want Me to Do?” How many times have we not taken the time to “ask the Lord His advice and His guidance?” When Bobby and I were first married and I would try to give him a little “wife” advice, he would say, “Honey, I know what I’m doing…” Through the...
Roselyne… Just look at this girl!! She got "just what she wanted." Our office staff sent her "a skeleton" for her studies! She is so happy!! We found Roselyne during a Mobile Clinic in Lastik, where she was born. Her legs were crooked, so we brought her back to the orphanage, to try to find...
Feed a man a fish, he eats for a day, teach a man how to fish, he eats for a lifetime. This ancient proverb was the impetus behind Love A Child’s sustainability outreach of the Agricultural Training Center. A new “sustainable agriculture in Haiti” training class got underway this morning at our Agricultural Training Center (ATC) in Fond...
Tune in this week to watch a very special program, "Reaching the Children of Haiti." Watch Bobby and Sherry and the Love A Child team fight the weather on a treacherous trip up the mountain to provide a Mobile Medical Clinic to a poor, remote village. Your heart will be moved when you see the...
We've purchased another 1,500 bags of premium Mega rice that weigh 27.5 pounds each. This morning we unloaded the bags of rice into our Kingdom Connection Distribution Center. Sherry and I began working in Haiti back in 1971. This was our first trip to Haiti, and we fell in love with the people especially the children! After all these years we are very sad. We have never seen Haiti go through such a food crisis like now. The children suffer the most. Thank you to all of you who have helped make this shipment of...
Yesterday morning at church I preached this simple message to the Haitian people. Now, I want to share this word with you today. Don't quit, don't be discouraged, just keep on walking by faith! "Nou mache pa lafwa... pa pa devan je." (For we walk by faith, not by sight.) 2 Corinthians 5:7 Are you discouraged? Keep walking...
Florence was one of the second group of four children with whom we started an orphanage here in Haiti. Florence’s mother was a friend of ours, and when she died, Florence’s father could not care for her and her siblings. She has been with us since she was one year old. Now, she is in...
“Don’t Be Discouraged, Keep On Walking!” That was the title of today’s message that Bobby preached here at our church in Fond Parisien, Haiti! Our young “Haitian daughters” did a beautiful praise dance and Richard, one of our older boys, played the keyboard. When the Haitian people face problems each day, they need to be...
