"Small Things..." We are living in a day and time when everyone wants to do "a big thing." I have met wonderful missionaries in Haiti, and when asking about their work they say, "I only have ten children in my orphanage…" Or in the States, a pastor might say, "We just have a small church..." Jesus...
These two are too cute not to share with you!! This is Dorissant and Natalie from our Love A Child Children’s Home. They are all smiles and full of happiness! They bring so much joy to everyone around them!!! We love them so much! Love, Kaeli
Haiti is a strange country… The Haitians used to tell me, “One day you see them, the next day they are gone.” Tuesday, our missionary, Kaeli, had gone to Old Letant with a young visiting girl, Haley Ostrander, age 12. She is pictured on the boat with all of the Haitian children. They had been...
Yesterday, and today, is a very popular holiday to celebrate “Labor and Agriculture” throughout Haiti. At Love A Child, our Agricultural Training Center staff had prepared a big day-long celebration for the community and hundreds of joyous Haitians came to participate. Even many of our kids from the Love A Child Children’s Home came to plant...
DON'T STAY DEFEATED!! Everybody falls. Champions get back up!! Peter had a great personal failure. When he denied his Lord three times, he knew he had failed his master. "And he went out, and wept bitterly." (Matthew 26:75) But somehow, in his relationship with Jesus, he caught a glimpse of God's mercy! Peter repented and asked the Lord's forgiveness....
We had so much fun today planting trees at Gwo Maché Mirak (Grand Miracle Market) and at Pastor Claude’s new orphanage! We are teaching the children the importance of agriculture and how it plays a big part in their culture. Without plants, Haitians have no life! This is where they find food to support their...
In Haiti, May 1st and 2nd are a big popular cultural holiday, “Labor and Agriculture Days,” where the country celebrates Haiti’s heritage as a labor and agriculturally based nation. It is a lot like our Earth Day and Arbor Day, where there is a heavy emphasis on appreciating the environment. It is symbolized by a lot of...
Do you remember, the other day when we asked you to pray that Jesse and his daughter, Haley, would be able to get the speaker system in through American Airlines for the Birthing Center? Well, praise God! Another prayer answered! This is the speaker/intercom system being installed this week. This will enable us to stay in...
I still love to hear the "old songs" we sang in church years ago... not many churches still sing songs like "The Old Rugged Cross." I always wondered about the part that said, "… till my trophies, at last, I lay down…" I began to think, "What are my trophies?" The trophies are the ones whose lives...
How many eggs does it take to feed your household? I bet it doesn’t take this many!! Haha! This is Jolina. She helped me gather the eggs for tomorrow morning’s breakfast! Oh, and let me just say, trying to keep these eggs from breaking on the bumpy “Haiti” road is a game in itself!!! We...
