Yesterday, after we returned from seeing Madamn Julia, we began to think about "how to help her." The first priority is to get her and her children out of the place where they are living now. We "think" there is a vacant house in Miracle Village that someone abandoned for one reason or another… maybe someone...
Feeding hungry children is what we are all about, and the best way to do this is through our schools. Children learn about the Lord, as well as their basic subjects. Each school child wears a uniform, and the children love to get dressed in the morning and go to school! Child sponsorship provides a...
Stories are told in the Bible about treasure… Jesus talked about "treasure." "Sell that ye have, and give alms (offerings to the poor); provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be...
The most difficult thing about living here in Haiti is not the violence, the kidnapping, the roadblocks, or burning tires. It’s trying to comprehend how some rich Haitian families can own an exclusive gated home in Haiti, in addition to one or two in the States and one in France and send their kids to...
The Jesus Healing Center is moving along with construction. In spite of all the turmoil in Haiti, this huge building is going up day by day. Many poor Haitians are coming from the mountains and even further away to get help at our clinic. This travels by "word of mouth." They see the most compassionate...
This morning, we were ready to send Lionel to the hospital in Carrefour, Haiti, which is many hours from us, for surgery on his hand. As you may know, we brought Lionel to our orphanage when we found out that his father had "held his hand in boiling water" because he was angry with him....
Haitian people believe more in "curses" than they do blessings. Everything that happens to them "bad," is a curse. Maybe their diet is bad or they have a heart problem and their body starts to swell, they immediately think it is a curse. But when God blesses His people, He blesses them!!!! In Numbers 22,...
Six-year-old Jean Edwouard just finished making a trip to the nearest water hole. On his head, he was balancing a 5-gallon bucket of water, sinking deep in the sand with every step. When he reached the hut of his aunt and family members, they told him to “gather sticks and make a fire.” You may...
From our post this morning, two of our female employees had been kidnapped and robbed by the Papaya Gang on the way to work this morning… PTL they were let go! Our hearts have been broken for them. They are two very smart and nice, sweet Christian ladies who work for Love A Child. Here's what went down…...
This morning we have been in fervent prayer for two of our female Love A Child employees. We have been in tears. They were, I thought at first, just robbed coming into work, but now I heard they were robbed, kidnapped, and taken back into the fields of the Papaya Gang. We just received word...
