“Running with the Footmen…” My precious mother, who has gone to be with the Lord, used to quote this verse to me and to anyone else going through a trial. When you are being tested, you feel alone. You feel as though no one understands what you are going through, and sometimes, you get the...
Kenzy Chery is just a different little boy. Kenzy’s mother died during childbirth. A kind Haitian Pastor from far away mountains walked down with this baby in his arms. Kenzy had a bad skin infection but is doing better now. He was so “sickly” for a long, long time. He was diagnosed with Sickle Cell...
These kids act like they were “born on a bicycle!” Our previous friends, Dean and Carolyn from Georgia, sent these bicycles a while ago... but it took time for them to come by way of a shipping container through the Dominican Republic! We wanted to wait until the kids finished school for the summer… but,...
The Lord told King Jehoshaphat, “… Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.” (2 Chronicles 20:15) This morning, I feel within my heart that many of you are facing a battle in your life.

Yesterday, the children received 12 new bikes. Everyone took turns riding the bikes. Oh, they were beyond happy! There is nothing like seeing smiles on children's faces. Thank you, Dean and Carolyn, for purchasing these new bikes. Love is something you do! Bobby Burnette
“He Knows My Name...” Have you ever felt like “God has forgotten you?” You have prayed and prayed, but you feel as though you are praying “against a wall.” Hang in there, and don’t give up on God. He knows every intricate detail about you. Have you ever tried to “count the stars?" It’s impossible...
It is 9:00 am, and the Jesus Healing Center has already seen dozens of patients. We open with prayer and singing, and then, one of our workers holds up a “large, heavy book,” and they pray over it. It contains the names of our partners who helped build our “Jesus Healing Center.” After prayer and...
