Sherry and I have been living in Haiti for 27 years, but we have never seen the hunger crisis as great as it is now, due to a "political crisis." Haitian mothers are so depressed and don't know how they will feed their children every day. If you have ever had to look into the...
We just loaded 500 bags of fresh rice for the Restavak Freedom organization with Joan Conn who helps rescue children that are being misused as slaves. We have been friends for several years. They do wonderful work for the children. Thank you to our big boys for helping! Thank you to our friends for helping make...
We can have chicken feathers or eagle wings! “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31 — We have a lot of chickens here on our property in...
As you know, our Love A Child 14 passenger Jesus Healing Center van was stolen a few days before Christmas by the Papaya Gang. (Yesterday, they stole five more vehicles from this area.) It was a 2017 diesel van, which was funded by Joyce Meyer Ministries — Hand of Hope. We feel so bad. The...
Well, we promised the children here that we had a “big gift” for them! This nice “slide” came from Sunbelt Inflatable Tents. We have been friends of “Billy” for a long time. When you live in an orphanage with 80 plus kids, they can drive you nuts if they are not in school! (Actually, this...
A bifet is the Creole word for “closet.” Today is “clean your bifet” day here at our Love A Child Children’s Home. The boys are out picking up trash, but when they get back, we will have the “boys bifet inspection!” Ha! It should be pretty interesting. Clothing that is too small but in good condition goes...
Today, one of our Love A Child children, Florence Jeannot, will be leaving Haiti with a group of six others en route to Italy to attend university. Florence was chosen to be in this program and receive a partial scholarship to UniCamillus. Her heart’s desire is to study physical therapy, but we know that whatever she pursues that...
“Be Not Afraid.” In 2 Kings 18, we find that Judah finally gets a righteous king, King Hezekiah. With everyone else around him serving false gods and idols and committing abominations, Hezekiah feared God. He destroyed all the idols and groves where people had worshipped false gods. He was almost “standing alone” with his kingdom, serving God....
These fruits and vegetables just came in from our Agricultural Training Center! You can make compost and grow crops almost anywhere. We are so proud of our ATC students, along with the garden workers. Sustainability, helping Haitians to help themselves. Delicious, yum! Bobby Burnette
"In a dark place…" Have you ever found yourself in "a dark place" in your life? Maybe someone that you loved passed away, and you feel that you cannot go on… Or maybe your son or daughter has been taken by drugs and their personality has changed and you can't seem to "reach them." There are...
