GOOD NEWS! The semi-truck and container full of food for the poor Haitian people have made it to the border of Haiti and the Dominican Republic!! BAD NEWS! Customs at the border is closed! They may open for a little while tomorrow, but they don't know when they will open. With all of the turmoil, roadblocks,...
As of late yesterday afternoon, our semi-truck carrying all of the food from the Dominican Republic was still not repaired. In the late afternoon, we sent one of our Love A Child backup semi-trucks to pull the heavy container into Haiti. This morning I have not heard anything from anyone, which is strange. The good...
"The Fiery Trial…" (Part Two) "Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off." Genesis 22:4 After three long days on foot, Abraham and his servant and his small son, Isaac, walked toward the mountain that God told Abraham to go to, to sacrifice his son… His only...
Yvonne Trimble, our friend here in Haiti e-mailed us this morning. Just wanted you to see some of the conditions here in Haiti. This is the same area that Sherry and I made through on Monday only by a miracle. Today the shooting, roadblocks… horror is beyond words. This is not our regular sweet Haitian people...
I'm a believer that when school is not in session every kid should have a job here at Love A Child. If I see them standing around bored, I can always find some work for them to do! And since Haiti has a lot of political problems right now, and the streets are not safe,...
We just received these pictures. The first picture is Joker working on our semi-truck gears. If anyone can repair the problem, Joker can! Please pray that we can get our container moving to help the Haitian people. Bobby Burnette

Our mechanic, Joker, is on the way to check it out. Please remember him in your prayers. His 12-year-old daughter passed away on Sunday. I can’t say which country our...
"Our God of the second chance…” Ever feel discouraged about "something you missed" in life? Have you thought about things that did not go as well as you expected? That marriage, that job, that college career? Your health? Maybe it was a "hidden sin" in your life, or something you really messed up? Let's look...
This is Jovanie Jean. She is one of our older children here at Love A Child. She has a degree in nursing and is very, very bright! Honestly, we want to think that all of our children will be "little angels," but raising these many children here in Haiti is not easy. When Jovanie first...
Haiti is in political turmoil… Businesses cannot operate… Many doctors’ offices, grocery stores, banks, high schools, and universities are closed. There are "some" schools open far up in the mountains where it is safe, but not in the main areas of Haiti. Our children at Love A Child have only been to "one week of...
