Zachary is definitely a “mama’s boy!” He has been attached to me since he could walk! He is a very unusual little guy! He is happy and content but doesn’t want to talk much! He just finished third year Kindergarten. The little boys and girls were lined up in church to do their Kindergarten program....
Wow! WOW! What a game in Miracle Village between Ganthier and Le Tant!! Le Tant won yesterday. Most Haitians have nothing to look forward to or anywhere to go because of the gangs. The youth are the future of Haiti. These bleachers give them hope, dignity, and respect like normal people. This is a great...
In the middle of roadblocks, gangs, and insecurity, life goes on. One thing we know… “Babies Can’t Wait!” Babies don’t know that the roads are blocked, and in most areas, armed gangs with high-powered guns are waiting to kidnap or kill. This is what mothers like Madamn Love-Mika go through, just to get to a...
“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. The battle may be great, but God is greater! Today, a multitude may be against us, but God will...
David Desir was the 7th child born into a "very, very poor family.” His parents could not care for him so a kind neighbor took him in. But as a little time passed, she felt she could not care for this baby. She took him to the Department of Social Services, and there, they found...
We have a special need for “backpacks!” You can see just some of the old and ripped backpacks! (Haitian children have lots of heavy books to carry!) We have all sizes of kids from age 5 to college students… 28 girls and 37 boys, and they go from Elementary School to College! We looked at...
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
