This is Yonel. We found him in the mountains when we were doing a Mobile Medical Clinic about 20 years ago!! He had severe malnutrition, and you could count every rib in his body! (Most of the children from our Love A Child Children’s Home were found during Mobile Medical Clinics.) Yonel was raised by...
Dear Friends, Thank you all for the donations of clothing for men, women, children, and toddlers. We are so blessed to be able to share these items with the village people where we do food distributions, as well as our missionary friends who serve the poor as we do. These wonderful toddler and children's clothes...

“A Far Country.” “And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.” Luke 15:13 The story is told in Luke 15 of a rich nobleman with two sons. The younger son wanted to get his half of...

There may be “one” hospital or birth center in Haiti that provides birth certificates, but that is rare. In fact, the majority of mothers have a difficult time getting to the proper government...
“God May Send You on a Detour.” Sometimes, when the Lord speaks to us to somewhere or do something, don’t be surprised if you run into a “detour.” In Genesis, chapter 12, Abram has left his own country and is on a long journey with all his relatives to a strange new land. “And there...
Many of you remember Moses. His mother was about to give birth and went to an outhouse to “discard him.” A Haitian man heard the muffled cries and tied a rope around his waist and went down into the abyss. He brought up a dying baby in a bucket. We took him in and gave...
We were just recently at Pastor Claude's Orphanage. We brought candy and clothing to his children. They are so very, very sweet. Each morning they all get up at 5:00 a.m. for prayer and pray for an hour before getting ready for school. We will soon be getting the information on all these children for...
