Living and working in Haiti since 1967.  
I will never forget when I visited Haiti for the first time.  Little did I
know that 40 years later I would still be here. Now a dream that I
have had for a long time has come true.  Mark Allen Vinelon, the son
of Violine and Andre, has joined with me and will be working with
me and continue the work long after I am gone if Jesus tarries.

Violine, words cannot describe the love and respect I have in my heart
for her.  For 35 years I have known her and she has worked with me.  
She Pastor Thomas, or Andre as many people know him, and I have
lived under the same roof for over 20 years.  I was privileged to be there
as their children grew up
We would not be in Fond Doux were it not for Pastor Thomas, or Andre as
a lot of people know him,   On the side of a barren mountain he labored for
three years to build a place for us to live.  Often times he went all day long
on a hand full of peanuts and coffee.  His sacrifice and dedication will
never be forgotten.  He and Violine are people whom I love with all my
heart.
Jordanny,  the most kindest man I have ever known.  He has been
with me since he was a young man.  He and his wife have three
children.  They are  Daniel, David, and Mica.
Clertide, or Madame Jordanny as many call her, is invaluable to the
work in Haiti.  Probably the hardest worker here she is in charge of  
food preparation for the home.  She has a special place in my heart.
Adelle works with Clertide in the main kitchen, also is known for her "Home
Made" peanut butter.  She also takes the coffee beans, grills them, and
makes our coffee.  
David does everything.  He preaches and plays the guitar and
keyboard in the church.  He does all of our electrical work.  He does
our photography and anything else he is called to do.  He is Jordanny
and Clertide's son and I remember when he was born in our home.

Betina is soon to be our full time nurse thanks to Rev. Doug Atkins and
his Sons in Nashville, Tennessee who are providing her with the
education necessary by paying for her education.    Working in the
Clinic and with people who are suffering, she portrays a warm, caring,
spirit.   She has been with us since she was 6 years old.  
A lady from Minnesota stood crying as she stood here in the airport at Port-au-Prince.  Through her
tears she said,
"Once you experience Haiti, you will never again be able to tell God you didn't know.
