These pictures were taken today. Thank you again, Edsel, from West Virginia, and Fred, from Florida, and all of the Haitian workers for working on the Bsl2 and the Bsl3 labs. We are happy to partner with the University of Florida. They will be researching diseases and working on the prevention of diseases. They will be...
Our older boys are working hard today pulling weeds out of the gardens along with the Agricultural Training Center (ATC) students who haven’t been able to travel on the road yet. We are thankful for Fred from Florida, who is working hard along with Edsel putting together the lab for the research of diseases. God...
PRAYER ALERT: We have heard on the Haitian radio, yesterday and this morning, that today the thugs will storm the Presidential Palace and take over the government. All of the major roads are still blocked with burning tires, rock-throwing, burning buildings, shootings, etc. No one is on the street traveling. Everything is completely shut down; schools, banks,...
"Someone's Always Watching You." We know, of course, that "the Lord is always watching you." But, did you ever stop to think about how many people are "watching you," especially people who are not Christians. These are the people who might be making fun of you, or who don’t go to church, or who...
Sandraline is one of our favorites! I called her, “Piwili" (lollipop) in Creole. She struggles hard in school. She was tiny and malnourished when we got her. Sandraline is a “hugger!” She always comes running at me with both arms wide open. We will just have to wait and see what kind of work she will...
I went yesterday to visit Pastor Claude’s orphanage we built together along with our good friend David George. They were completely out of food. We solved that! They have not had any power for three weeks now… no electricity. I’m looking into solar power if I can find a cheaper way to do it....
No matter what battle you are facing today, know this, “If God be for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31 The same one who opened up the Red Sea, fell the walls of Jericho, opened the eyes of the blind, and caused deaf to hear is the same one who is “for us!” Blessings, Sherry
This is one of our older girls, Widlene. She is doing “market” here at the orphanage. Once a month, when all the supply items come, Widlene takes out her notebook and writes down what each children’s room gets. However, if they need a can of sweet-smelling spray, they have to bring the empty can! If...
I had thought things may be better today in Haiti but it's not. Roads are still blocked, many buildings in Port-au-Prince and Petionville have been burnt down. Gangs are fighting each other, trying to outdo each other. Our workers cannot leave and others cannot come to work because of all the roadblocks of burning tires,...

This group of 9 students came from all over Haiti to study, work, and live at our Agricultural Training Center (ATC).
