“If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail; If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or any poor without covering; If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate: Then let mine...
We just received a phone call from Nelio Barthelemy, our Haitian Director of Love A Child. (He grew up in the poor village of “Bethel,” a nickname for L'Estère.) Hunger is so widespread in this village. Nelio always wants to make sure that they get food. This is the largest area that we cook food… 13 “chodias” (huge cooking pots)...
Business is “picking up!” We have been cleaning, scrubbing, disinfecting, soaking in Clorox water, checking temperatures, watching for coughs, etc., but it’s hard to keep Haitians apart. Today was “cleanup day” and they all jumped in the back of Poppie’s truck! They are the trash (paper pickup) detail! Today, our doctors are meeting to establish very...
It's not a sin to fall, but a sin not to get back up! Proverbs 24:16- "For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief." Joshua had lost the battle before the king of Ai. Joshua had fallen; the king chased his men and killed them....

More were coming... The League of Pastors do a wonderful job in this area: Pastor Florius Jonas, Fraternite Chrétienne;...
"Stop Crying... There's a Battle to be Fought!" In Joshua Chapter 7 we see that Joshua was going to fight with the king of Ai. Some of his men told him, "You don’t need a lot of men, let's just take 3,000, we got this!" Little did Joshua know that the people had already sinned...
“This Kid Loves to Eat!” This is baby Zachary. He is the one we rescued from his “crazy Voodoo mother,” who wanted to kill him with a knife!! He is doing fine now! His problem is that “he loves to eat!” When he’s not eating, he’s not happy! I’m going to have to put him...
When you live in an orphanage with 85 kids, a dog, a cat, some pigeons, and adults, it can get quite noisy, especially now since everyone is at home. Thankfully, we are on a large piece of property here in Haiti and the kids can play outside. We have "all ages" of kids. The older...
