This beautiful young lady is Kristela, and at one time she was a tomboy and very mischievous. She climbed trees and loved playing with her brothers. She was born in the remote village of Savaan Pit, which is high in the mountains. We were conducting a Mobile Medical Clinic and Kristela’s "Voodoo practicing," and very...
Last night was a big wake up call for all of us. Just as we were all getting ready for bed, the ground started shaking and all the kids started screaming. A 5.9 earthquake came from north Haiti and a 3.3 earthquake came from the Dominican Republic. So far 11 deaths have been reported and...
“The Spirit of the Lord…” In Judges 6 and 7, we read the wonderful story of a young man named Gideon. He was nothing to talk about, really…just an ordinary Israelite, who was abused by the Midianites, as were all the Israelites. The Midianites had destroyed all the crops of the Israelites and took their cattle,...
Today is what you call Haircut Saturday! Ha! The school system in Haiti is very strict and they require the boys to have a shaved head! They call it “Tet Kale.” It is good for the kids because of all the dust here in Haiti. If they have long hair, the dust gets stuck and...
“You May Be On The Other End Of The Stick…” “Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it. Say not unto thy neighbor, Go, and come again, and tomorrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.” Proverbs 3:27-28 –...

We were there last month, and wow, those kids can eat!!! This is the village where we took in the first four children of our Love...
“Excuses, Excuses, Excuses…” Isn't it something that when God speaks to some of us, we make excuses. “I can't go. I can't speak very well. I don't have any money. I don't have anyone to help me. Blah, blah, blah.” Moses tried hard to give God excuses. “They won't believe me. I don't have an...
Tuesday afternoon we had very heavy rains. Water was coming down from the mountains faster than ever and there was a lot of flooding. The water has caused a lot of damage throughout our wall at the marketplace and Miracle Village. We are sad to say that the rain caused one person to lose their...
I love reading all the promises from God’s Word! Oh, how the Lord loves us and all the promises He has given to us! There are 3,573 promises in God’s Word. The last promise in God’s Word is this, “He who testifies to these things says, ‘Surely I am coming quickly.’ Amen. Even so, come,...
