The Birthing Center is receiving its second coat of paint today! Some of our older children have become excellent painters. They don’t drop a bit of paint on the floor. Jesse Ostrander and his daughter, Haley, are doing a tremendous job. Thank you, partners and friends, for helping make this dream come[…]
“Small Things…” We are living in a day and time when everyone wants to do “a big thing.” I have met wonderful missionaries in Haiti, and when asking about their work they say, “I only have ten children in my orphanage…” Or in the States, a pastor might say, “We[…]
These two are too cute not to share with you!! This is Dorissant and Natalie from our Love A Child Children’s Home. They are all smiles and full of happiness! They bring so much joy to everyone around them!!! We love them so much! Love, Kaeli
Haiti is a strange country… The Haitians used to tell me, “One day you see them, the next day they are gone.” Tuesday, our missionary, Kaeli, had gone to Old Letant with a young visiting girl, Haley Ostrander, age 12. She is pictured on the boat with all of the[…]

Peter[…]
We had so much fun today planting trees at Gwo Maché Mirak (Grand Miracle Market) and at Pastor Claude’s new orphanage! We are teaching the children the importance of agriculture and how it plays a big part in their culture. Without plants, Haitians have no life! This is where they[…]
In Haiti, May 1st and 2nd are a big popular cultural holiday, “Labor and Agriculture Days,” where the country celebrates Haiti’s heritage as a labor and agriculturally based nation.

Do you remember, the other day when we asked you to pray that Jesse and his daughter, Haley, would be able to get the speaker system in through American Airlines for the Birthing Center? Well, praise God! Another prayer answered! This is the speaker/intercom system being installed this week. This will[…]
