You can see the difference in Jackson, since the first day that we brought him back to our orphanage. He was brought to us by a relative. His stomach was the largest I had ever seen on a child. It was not easy to pick him up! He was so[…]
“Your Face is Your Passport…”
This is a Creole Proverb handed down from generation to generation!!! Everyone here in Haiti wants to go to the United States. Of course, many are coming in illegally but to those who value going to the States legally, the Haitians say, “Your face is your Passport!” Think about what[…]

The “Prayer of Faith…” James 5:15
There is a big difference between “praying” and “praying the Prayer of Faith!” Lots of people can tell you they are “praying for you,” but when you need a miracle to happen, you need to find someone who can “pray the Prayer of Faith.” Some people will say, “I’m praying[…]

FEEDING AND MEDICAL PROGRAM In Haiti, you never know from day to day. We had planned on traveling through some back-high mountain roads to avoid the gangs traveling to South Haiti. (Two-day journey.) The rains have been very heavy here and in the mountains, washing out many roads and making[…]
“Inside Out and Upside Down”
Have you ever felt like you were at the beginning of the “end?” Look at our college students!!! Who would have thought that they would break into buildings and “take over” universities? They burn our flag, and mock our “Founding Fathers” who fought for our freedom, only to destroy buildings?[…]
Our Dimelia…
Dimelia (Dumolia) was brought to us by her father when she was about four. She had a pot of boiling water fall on her that her mother had made to boil rice. Her burns were horrific, from the top of her neck to her stomach. We sent her back and[…]
