Nothing pleases God more than faith. In 2nd Kings 4:8-37 we find the famous words of a poor Shunammite woman, whose “only son,” her young son, had just died. (This is the same child that Elisha told her she was going to give birth to.) The child had just been outside with his father in...
Little Zoey just turned a year old last month. It has been a "long year" with Zoey! She was found abandoned on the road to "Old Letant," a mud-hut village not far from us. Apparently, a mother who had "too many children," just left her in the path of our vehicle when Kaeli (who was...
Many people ask me why don't we buy all of our rice in Haiti from the rice farmers? I wish we could... Haiti does not have enough rice to feed itself! Haiti only produces enough rice to feed 5% of its population. Most of the rice is grown in the Artibonite Valley. President Jovenel, to his...

How would you like to keep 85 kids "busy" at the same time? Ha! It's quite a job! This particular day, was "scrubbing the floors" day! The kids took the "water hose" and began scrubbing the floor in the cafeteria and all the hallways at the Love A Child Children's Home! There were suds and...

“The God of the Second Chance.” “Howbeit the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaven.” Judges 16:22 Samson was a great man of God. There is no bodybuilder or man alive who could have done what he did. He killed a lion with his bare hands, slew 1,000 Philistines with the...
