Today, one of our Love A Child children, Job, will be receiving another operation in the Dominican Republic. You may recall that Job had gotten a serious infection in his lower leg, and we could not get him through the gangs to a hospital here in Haiti.. so we took him to the Dominican Republic....
God will restore the years the cankerworm hath eaten! “And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.” Joel 2:25 I really feel within my heart that this scripture is for several of you today. The Word of the...
She is one of our sweetest older girls. She is always smiling, and “loves Poppie Bobby.” Her mother had been working for us years ago, and Fabienne always came to work with her. But, we had to let her mother go. She asked if Fabienne could stay with us and go to school, and we...
This morning, here at Fond Parisien, we could feel the tension and fear in the air. We always have a morning meeting at 6:30 am with our main workers... they are all concerned about Haiti. Haitians are a people who "laugh at almost everything." But not now. We see worried faces everywhere. I had to...

I cannot verify any of this. We are about 30 miles from the airport. The U.S. Embassy e-mailed asking all Americans to...
When I first saw Mackenson in the arms of his father, I thought, “Surely this toddler will die.” But, I was “more than shocked" when I found out that this “toddler” was seven years old! Malnutrition had stolen many years already. We had to bring him back to Fond Parisien and begin the long path...
Well, after we finished the pizzas, we took the busload of children back home for ice cream, cake, and fun games! I love the game where you run with the egg on the spoon without dropping it! We laughed so much last night. Happy Birthday, Daniel, Jameson, Bobby, Miliana, Kenzy, Daphline, and Samuel! We love...
