His mother Marie Pheta Julien died shortly after his birth. His father, Jean Marcel Antoine, was so poor he couldn’t take care of Ti Mikael and his older...
Each month, we must bring in eight "40-foot containers" of food to feed the children and families we help here in Haiti. Our friends at Feed My Starving Children donate this delicious food. It costs us a minimum of $10,000 per container to truck the food from Minnesota to Miami. Then it is shipped to...
There is a food crisis in Haiti, more now than ever before. We know we cannot feed “all the children” in Haiti, but we can feed all of those that the Lord puts on our hearts. Food is like gold in Haiti. We struggle to feed our children each month, but we have learned that...
“Who Gets the Short Straw?” Since Bobby and I have moved to Haiti, we have had years of “near death” episodes. In 1996, Bobby was diagnosed with Stage Three Melanoma Cancer and given only a short time to live. God healed him! We lived three years (1991-1994) with no electricity, and there were violent crimes...
Our little “Pillsbury Doughboy.” Surely you all remember Jameson from our Love A Child Children’s Home! Jameson came to us covered in horrible sores all over his body.

We had so much fun with our friend Anneice Loudermilk from NC. We went to Old Letant! The kids are so sweet. We had to make them sit on the ground to give them Tootsie Roll Pops! But, they were already dirty, so they didn’t mind! Ha! It’s amazing what a little candy means to a poor...
There is a lot going on here in Haiti!!! Last night, the kids here at our children’s home went crazy! We decided to have an "early Christmas,” because Kaeli is leaving for the States on Thursday. The children got new clothes, which they needed for church, and some toys, perfume, etc. This afternoon, David George will be coming in...
