Wow! Trying to get all these boys to stop playing on the playground for one minute in order to take a picture is close to impossible! Then trying to get them to look at the camera all at the same time IS IMPOSSIBLE! Haha! These boys can go, go, and go! They love to play...
We are so thankful to MAP International for their wonderful donation of medicine we received a few days ago. It was held up in Haiti Customs for a while, due to political problems in the country. During those perilous times, the poor in many areas could not even get transportation to a clinic for help… Medicines...
We welcome Jesse Ostrander who came in yesterday! He will be working on the Birthing Center among other things. Jesse is busy for the Lord! Jesse is the son of Mark Ostrander. He is a chip off the old block (well not too old, ha!). Jesse has been here about 70 times now. He is...
"Forgiveness…" What a story Jesus told us about "forgiveness." Sometimes, it's hard to forgive, but when we think about our own life, how much Jesus has already forgiven us, it's easier to forgive. In Matthew 18:23-35, Jesus tells his disciples the story of the king who had servants who "owed the king." The most indebted...
Last week our older girls asked me if they could put together some care packages for some specific families in the church. They were concerned for some of the families who they could see were struggling. Last Friday they spent the whole day putting together little sacks for them. These sacks had general hygiene supplies...
Things are better in Haiti! Thank the Lord! For the last 3 or four weeks, we only had about 10 to 20 people come to the clinic each day. Before all this trouble happened, we were turning away around 150 people each day that the doctors and nurses could not see. This morning all is...
Trading Crosses "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me." Luke 9:23 It's shocking to see how jealous Christians can become after God's blessings finally come across your life... It's too bad they could not look into your past and see the cross you...
Do you find random “selfies” of your children on your phone? I know I do!!! Ha! These get me laughing so hard! I hope these “selfies” of our children can bring a smile to your day! They will probably think twice about taking selfies on my phone after seeing this post! Haha! We love you! Love,...
It was about two weeks ago that we had visited the village of Gobert, high above Peyi Pouri. This is one of the little children that gripped our hearts... She was about five years old... Her little "crumpled metal bowl" is hard to see because of her dirty dress, but it is empty. For most...
These are three of our Love A Child kids… Stephanie, Bianca, and Dimelia. They are dressed, just getting ready to go to Church! All Haitians love to dress up, especially for Church, weddings, and funerals! These girls do not look like typical children in any Children’s Home or Orphanage in Haiti. We have always taught...
