Someone once said, “The sun rises for everyone, the rich as well as the poor… We are all one, under the love of God.”

“A Husband Abandons a Pregnant Wife.”
Mrs. Mildride Jean, a poor young woman from the village of Ganthier, is 23 years old. She lives with her mother because she has no place else to go. Her husband, Ronald, abandoned her when she was about a month pregnant. She had no other choice and no place to go but her mother’s.

“Gangs on the Street and No Money.”
She was worried about finding a Maternity Center because she had no money. At this time in Haiti, it is hard to find a Maternity place because there are so many gangs on the street and the journey to a clinic or hospital is very difficult and dangerous, and they charge a lot of money. Mildride didn’t have one “gourde” (penny) but someone told her that “even though she had no money and is facing difficulties, the Love A Child Birthing Center stays open to help pregnant women, 24/7. It never closes.”

“Smiles All Over Her Face!”
She was so happy to come! She followed all the information the Mid-Wives gave her. Today, she gave birth to her first child at 5:00 AM, a little boy who weighed 2.8 kilos. She smiled “all over her face.” She was happy because the Birthing Center took good care of her. Even though her husband abandoned her, the Lord had already prepared a beautiful place for her to have her baby, with no cost!

God bless our wonderful partners. Sherry
