This morning we have been distributing food to so many organizations. Over half are orphan homes; everyone is so thankful! Our girls served homemade cake, Carlos, Dieuferly and the women made delicious homemade pates. The ladies cooked almost all night! Yum! Everyone had a soda with lots of love. Thank you to all of you...
”It’s Not How You Start...” When we hear stories of well-known evangelists and pastors who have “fallen away” from the gospel, it brings pain to our hearts and tears to our eyes. It can happen to anyone, but that’s what “grace and repentance” are for. King David fell away, but he repented and paid the price. It’s not how we start out but how “we finish the race” that counts. Years ago, a friend of ours, who had been pastoring a church “backslid" from...
She was just a cute shy baby girl, only a year old, when her mother died leaving four children with a father to raise all by himself. We took in all four children. Florence has loved “physical therapy” since she worked with the rehabilitation workers after the earthquake. The “mantle” fell upon her, and she...
We are preparing for around 100 organizations to come and pick up their monthly food. So many are orphan homes. Haïti is in a food crisis. Pray, our semi-truck broke down on the side of the road with a forty-foot container of Feed My Starving Children meals. PTL! We have a very nice 10 wheeler...
Special thanks to Faith Church. Again, we want to say a special thanks to Pastor David Crank of "Faith Church." They raised funds to buy us a wonderful ambulance, a Toyota Land Cruiser. We have had this ambulance in operation for three years now, running between many hospitals for emergencies. Our Love A Child clinic...
“For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” Galatians 5:14 Just think, all the law is fulfilled in this…“love your neighbor as much as you love yourself.” Wow! That’s a lot of love. Try it today! Do something kind for someone you don’t even...
Will the “real Bobby Burnette” please come forth? On the right of this picture is the other “Bobby Burnette.” He just turned 16! After he was born, both mother and father died. He has never known any parents but us and never known any family except these children here at our children’s home. Now, it...
Today we are making plans to do nothing! Of course, when you live with 85 children, you are always busy! Can't count the knocks on our door this morning. Ha! This week we will be distributing to around 100 organizations coming for their monthly meals. A little over half are orphan homes. Will be distributing meals to other villages and areas. This Friday,...
STOP LOOKING IN THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR... "Forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3: 13 & 14 One time a preacher picked me up to go driving with him. I noticed he was...
This afternoon, Widlene came to show us her new “creation!” She loves to cook and she loves to “create new recipes” and try them out on me, “Poppie, and everyone else!” This dessert was a major thing to Widlene, who “thought of her chocolate recipe” in the middle of the night! She watched anxiously as...
