As you probably know, life in Haiti has been totally disrupted for the past few years because of the violent terrorist gangs that are now in control of daily life in Haiti. But through our strong faith in our God of protection, most daily operations continue as normal, at Love A Child. Focusing on their...
A Missionary’s Prayer. “The Best Way to Fight is on Your Knees.” Here we are in Haiti, on our beautiful “Love A Child” land that God blessed us with! But the land did not come without a fight. After we began to clean the land, cut down the weeds, the bushes called “flying Satans,” and...
We first saw Natalie at our Love A Child Malnutrition Center. Her father had brought her to us after her mother had died. Natalie was thin, malnourished, and in bad condition. She was very thin and underweight. After she recovered, we realized that her father had abandoned her. So, we took Natalie into our orphanage....
I’m sure you have seen people on the highways, in towns, under trees, and just about everywhere with signs reading, “Will work for food!” But actually, most are not hungry but just want money to buy beer, cigarettes, and drugs. Last time we were in the States we saw a man standing in front of...

Last evening, the police at the small police station we prepared were attacked. The police pushed the gangs back twice!!! We are proud of them. All this happened about 10 minutes from us. These next two or three days will be a test. We are not afraid... We have big surprises all over out here...
“A Very Present Help.” What a comfort these words are in the times we are living in: “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea. Though the waters thereof...
With help from security, the few police pushed the gangs back, but not very far. Our drone picked up some gang members positioning themselves. Right now, we are good. The children are having service downstairs, singing and praising the Lord. Sherry overheard Jesse telling his wife "that these children are not afraid!" Please remember us in...
