When I first saw Mackenson in the arms of his father, I thought, “Surely this toddler will die.” But, I was “more than shocked” when I found out that this “toddler” was seven years old! Malnutrition had stolen many years already. We had to bring him back to Fond Parisien[…]
Well, after we finished the pizzas, we took the busload of children back home for ice cream, cake, and fun games! I love the game where you run with the egg on the spoon without dropping it! We laughed so much last night. Happy Birthday, Daniel, Jameson, Bobby, Miliana, Kenzy,[…]
“How Big is God?” I have come to find out that “God is as big as our faith.” Some people limit God according to what the conditions are. But God is not moved by the conditions around us. We missionaries here in Haiti, are surrounded by gangs. They have broken[…]
This evening, we took all of our children over to Dieuferly and the boy’s restaurant at the market. We had seven children with birthdays. We celebrate once a month! They had pizza, among other foods. Oh, they were happy! Thank you, David and Angie George for sponsoring the pizza, drinks,[…]

Each day, the children have basic chores to do before they go to school, but on Saturday, they do a lot more cleaning! You can see some of the boys… Dorissaint, Jonas, Lionel, Moses, Mackenson, and Stephano! But, there are others working too! There are floors to scrub, windows to[…]
The claw machine and the nurses! Jackson has had some tests and we are waiting for results. The doctors do not understand why he was seizing so violently last week. The videos that were taken were extremely helpful and they are helping guide the way in their search for answers.[…]
