Georges... My favorite thing about him is his sweetness, his shyness, and his great smile. He is one of the hardest-working kids at our Love A Child Children's Home.

We were supposed to leave yesterday to fly into Haiti, but we have not yet received the signature we need to fly there. Hopefully, when the government office opens Monday, maybe we can fly in Tuesday. Alert: We have just heard that Covid-19 is spreading rapidly throughout Haiti. Please remember us and pray for God's...

Little Samuel, or “Ti Samuel” in Creole, is four years old. (We call him “little Samuel” because we have another Samuel who is older.) Little Samuel is in 2nd grade and very mature for his age. He is full of energy and doesn’t want to sleep! He is a hardworking little boy...just look at how...
