This came in from our ATC. These guys can grow some good vegetables! We love okra! We also have peppers and other vegetables coming in today. We want our children here to eat more vegetables. We are thankful for David at Hope Seeds. Wilner and Doug, our missionary, are making some good compost. When our...
“But when thou makes a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind: And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.” Luke 14:13-14 Our greatest blessings come on us when we give to those who cannot give back.

“It’s Never too Late.” Today, Bobby and Reggie (who has worked for us for many years), along with our older Love A Child kids, did a skit on Sampson and Delilah! Julianne was Delilah and Reggie, Sampson. The skit was funny! In the end, Sampson repented and killed more Philistines in his death than when...
I don't want to be critical but when I opened our post I saw some Red Cross tents. We were in great need of tents. The Red Cross came up with tents. We were so happy!! However, the person representing the Red Cross wanted $250 per tent. I was surprised that they were selling tents...
Ten years ago today, a 7.1 earthquake hit the country of Haiti, crushing many men, women, and children, under tons of concrete buildings, walls, and even roads. That earthquake killed over 300,000 people and left tens of thousands of amputees. Sherry was in the mud-hut village of Old Letant by the lake. Every single mud...

In Exodus, Moses was getting ready to build the tabernacle. The people had never really been taught how to give offerings, only "sacrificial...
This is Jackson, (Jasson, in Creole). We found him a few years ago during a Mobile Clinic in Savan Pite, Haiti, in the mountains. He had a huge, bloated stomach and tiny small arms and a round swollen face, due to Kwashiorkor Malnutrition. He was “heavy” to pick up, due to the size of his stomach....
"IT'S NEVER TOO LATE." For all of those in our area: Tomorrow morning at 10:00 a.m. I will be bringing the message at our Love A Child church here in Fond Parisien, Haiti. I will be ministering on the story of Sampson and Delilah from the book of judges… "the power of God's forgiveness!" Tomorrow morning in church,...
Today, here in Haiti we are reflecting on the awful earthquake experienced 10 years ago tomorrow. Around 300,000 people were killed and tens of thousands injured or lost their limbs. We will never forget what a nightmare that was. Still even today some Haitians are trying to recover. Since then, a killer hurricane has struck Haiti...
"The Waters, the Rivers, and the Fire, and the Gangs..." We have been living here in Haiti for 27 years. We have been through the "overthrow" of President Aristide, riots, hurricanes, the earthquake of 2010, and now, we are living in a war zone. Never has Haiti been so violent. A few days ago, we...
