Jean Edward (Edwouard)… We love this guy! He is our “Jean Edward.” We rescued him from a large, poor family who was using him as a “restavek slave.” (A restavek is a child whose parents have died, and the orphan child is “given” to a relative to live with). This child becomes a slave and...
THE CHILDREN KEPT COMING! The average person in America uses 80-100 gallons of water per day. Tucked between three mountains is the village of Kaligo in South Haiti, which is without one drop of water! A grown family member walks three hours to find a five-gallon bucket of water in a village on the other...

Only about one or two children in our orphanage had a Creole Bible. They have services in our cafeteria on weekdays but they all needed a Creole Bible!

I found out about this woman when I had gone down to Port-au-Prince to buy medicines for my Mobile Medical Clinic. (In those days, I drove all over Port-au-Prince by...
Bobby and Sherry just recently returned to their home at the Children’s Home in Love A Child Village, Fond Parisien, Haiti. After they endured all the hugs and “welcome home” greetings from the children and staff, they got an opportunity to visit Wilner and the ATC (Agricultural Training Center) staff at our large “Garden Verge’”...

Thank you for “investing in lives!” Franceau was from a family of four children. The “Jeannot family” lived near us when we first came to Haiti. They lived near us at our home in Mt. Noire.
