"Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day; teach him to fish, and he will eat for a lifetime." What a wonderful proverb that is, and how true. Here in Haiti, we realize that "food right now" will keep children and families from starving, but with our Agricultural Training Center, we...
Even though there are lots of problems to overcome in Haiti, our work must go on… The Lord never said that "it would be easy to feed hungry children," but God always makes a way. This precious orphanage is in Leogane, "Orphanage Christian of Leogane." They receive food from us each month, and we wish...
Every morning early at 3:30 a.m., Sherry and I are up to be with the Lord. At the break of dawn, Sherry, our missionaries Doug and Jessica, and I walk around the property. And each morning, as we make the home stretch coming around the bend leading up to our Love A Child Children's Home, we see...
Dorissant… I call him "Dori" for short, but I am sure the kids here at the Love A Child Children’s Home have another nickname for him!! Dori is sweet and quiet, but he also has a "mischievous streak" in him!!! Ha! He is a hard worker and will jump at any kind of work he...

When we labor to prepare soil, digging deep to turn the hardened layers of earth into a soft welcoming environment for our gardens’ seeds, aren’t we relying upon faith that the seeds will receive the right amount of moisture, along with the necessary amount of warmth, and...
We are so thankful that Stephanie’s baby, Christian, is doing well. We have had Stephanie at our Love A Child Children’s Home since she was a baby. (She is George’s sister.) Some of the older girls (sisters) wanted to take her clothes and a bed for baby Christian. Pictured here are Dimelia, Stephanie, Widlene, and...
The schools have only been in session for a few days here in Haiti due to political violence. If you think it is hard having your children home for vacation and keeping them busy, try having 85 kids of all ages! The little guys have really been helping a lot. They are gathering loose rocks...
Have you ever had a dream, or a vision, or a plan that God has given you for the future? Can you see yourself doing something you have never done before, but you still "get the feeling" that somehow, someday, you will be doing something "completely different," because God has given you a "dream?" When...
His name is actually “Georges.” He was named after Hurricane Georges that struck Haiti years ago. His mother had already made plans to “leave him at the hospital” when he was born because she had so many children. George came early, and we hurried to pick him up. We took him to our Love A Child...
Yesterday, I mentioned how important it was to God’s Kingdom that we help the starving Haitians get from point “A” to point “B” by distributing over 25 million meals this year to help stabilize those in need. That is what God wants us to do to help with the immediate need. I also talked about going...
