No one wants to think about the men, women, and children of Haiti who live "inside or on the edge of the garbage dump of Truttier,” near Cité Soleil. It has riveted our lives to see little children walking barefoot among garbage piled high, digging through rusty tin cans, bottles, broken glass and all the...
GOD LOVES A SAD GIVER... NO, THE BIBLE SAYS GOD LOVES A "CHEERFUL GIVER!" 2 CORINTHIANS 9:7 Here is one of God's nuggets from the word of God. “There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty. The liberal soul shall be made...
“Look Out, Boys!” Here comes Daphline to play soccer! What a “toughie!” She and a few other girls from our Love A Child Children’s Home regularly play soccer with the boys, and these little girls are tough, and they want to win! They don’t care if they get roughed up a little, they are “tough!!”...
We have busy preparing for the next Mobile Medical Clinic in Peyi Pouri. But first, we have to wait until “400 mountain people” work on the road in Peyi Pouri, which had been washed away. We already sent Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) boxes of food to cook for them, but we will also be...
This came in from our ATC. These guys can grow some good vegetables! We love okra! We also have peppers and other vegetables coming in today. We want our children here to eat more vegetables. We are thankful for David at Hope Seeds. Wilner and Doug, our missionary, are making some good compost. When our...

“It’s Never too Late.” Today, Bobby and Reggie (who has worked for us for many years), along with our older Love A Child kids, did a skit on Sampson and Delilah! Julianne was Delilah and Reggie, Sampson. The skit was funny! In the end, Sampson repented and killed more Philistines in his death than when...
I don't want to be critical but when I opened our post I saw some Red Cross tents. We were in great need of tents. The Red Cross came up with tents. We were so happy!! However, the person representing the Red Cross wanted $250 per tent. I was surprised that they were selling tents...
Ten years ago today, a 7.1 earthquake hit the country of Haiti, crushing many men, women, and children, under tons of concrete buildings, walls, and even roads. That earthquake killed over 300,000 people and left tens of thousands of amputees. Sherry was in the mud-hut village of Old Letant by the lake. Every single mud...
"More than Enough." There are a lot of sermons about giving. Most people love to give, but some people give, and when they give, they just "drop it in the offering plate." In Exodus, Moses was getting ready to build the tabernacle. The people had never really been taught how to give offerings, only "sacrificial...
