This is Colin, and he’s 11 years old. Colin is a sweet, quiet boy who works hard here at Love A Child. One of his jobs is gathering sticks, weeds, and brush, and helping to keep the yard clean. If the schools ever start back up again in Haiti, he will be in the 5th grade. Colin...
We feel so bad for our two children, Roselyne and Dimelia. One of our drivers, Ezekiel, left with them an hour ago. But Nelio, our Love A Child Haitian Director, just called our driver and told him to “turn back!” He said that the area is so dangerous that they’ll never make it! This is...
In the few quiet days we are having right now, with very few riots, Roselyne and Dimelia just received a phone call to “hurry to College Lumier for registration!” Before their entrance, they have to take a test and pass.

They all loved jumping up and down!!! I could only jump up and down for so long! Ha! Today at 5:00 p.m., we are all returning with candy...
Thank you to all of you who have helped us purchase rice, beans, and cooking oil in the Dominican Republic. We should be able to start sending our trucks there on Friday, Lord willing. We are waiting for the prices to be finalized. We did not know it was illegal to bring rice, beans, and...
"Be Still and Know that I am God." Psalm 46:10 Sometimes, we miss what the Lord wants to say to us because we are too busy to "listen to the still small voice." There is a time to be happy, and dance, or sing aloud, but there is a time to "shut up and listen...
