Haiti's families are suffering more than ever before. By a miracle, we were able to get two containers out of Haitian Customs. One came yesterday afternoon and one late at night, due to the violence in the areas. These two containers are not even enough for all of our monthly village commitments. In addition, there...
"Sometimes it takes a mountain…" What a song I've been listening to… I think it was written by Mark Mathes. The first verse says, "Sometimes it takes a mountain. Sometimes a troubled sea. Sometimes it takes a desert to get ahold of me." This is what God has to do in our lives. When He cannot...
Today, Jessica Lackey, one of our missionaries, visited our Birthing Center and took these beautiful handmade blankets to the poor Haitian mothers. We are so thankful to Lutheran Missions Attic Workshop, Inc. for all of their hard work in making these wonderful gifts for the poor Haitian mothers! They would have never been able to...
Wow! Just look at the crowds of people squeezed into our Jesus Healing Center, along with the overflow at the Dental Clinic!! Then, look at the crowd of women at our Birthing Center!!! Everyone comes when it is “safe” to travel on the streets! Most of the time, mothers and families have to turn around because...

This is Yonel. We found him in the mountains when we were doing a Mobile Medical Clinic about 20 years ago!! He had severe malnutrition, and you could count every rib in his body! (Most of the children from our Love A Child Children’s Home were found during Mobile Medical Clinics.) Yonel was raised by...

We are so blessed to be able to share these items with the village people where we do food distributions, as well as our missionary friends who serve the poor as we do. These wonderful toddler and children's clothes...
Years ago, when we were traveling far into the mountains of Haiti, we had to make a brief stop for some of the ladies to "find some bushes!" I wandered around the small village, and I saw an old man under a tree with some "handmade glasses." He had cut the bottoms of Coca-Cola bottles...
“A Far Country.” “And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.” Luke 15:13 The story is told in Luke 15 of a rich nobleman with two sons. The younger son wanted to get his half of...
This is Ada. We also have her older sister, Bianca, and her brother Raphael. These children have been with us for many years. Ada is very good in school. She works hard, and to tell you the truth, I would never be able to figure out her complicated math problems that her teacher puts...
