As you may have previously heard, I(Denny) along with 6 awesome people from Fort Collins arrived in Haiti a few days ago. One common thing you hear from Haitians or you find out if you visit, is that life in Haiti is hard. Actually, hard would be a massive understatement. Every. single. task. is more difficult in Haiti. Here is one simple example from last night’s “Movie Night” we tried to put […]
By Saundie Weiss, So the first couple days here have been an experience. It’s a very simple world to describe everything we are digesting. Everything is different. I expected it to all be different and in some ways I can anticipate and prepare for it, but what I cannot prepare for is the emotions that come, or in some cases don’t come. Haiti is a beautiful country. It’s an island with mountains, green trees, and colorful plants, like hibiscus and other red flowering trees. […]
It’s that time again… Time to go to Haiti! We are so grateful for Denny’s work schedule as a high school teacher that allows our family to travel to Haiti during the summer. This summer is a summer of firsts! The first time our youngest daughter Audrey will be coming with us, the first time our awesome friends will be coming, the first time a group of girls from Colorado State University will be coming, and the […]
(Lynn’s wrap up post from her visit) I’ve written a lot about the heart-wrenching, emotionally-charged situations I’ve experienced in Pignon—now I want to share updates on positive changes that have occurred at the Children’s home and in Haiti in general. I am SO thankful that I was able to visit again with the timoun and Pastor and Madam – the vast differences between now and when I first visited with Esther 2 years ago are amazing! […]

Tonton (uncle) showed up as planned yesterday with his nephew, Dilinks. He had told us the baby was 7 months old, but his papers show he was born in April, so 10 months now. Tonton had traveled from the other side of the island after hearing that Pastor Francois may take the baby. He said the bebe’s mother was his sister and that she had died last month. He doesn’t know who the father is. Tonton […]
What a wonderful gift from Lorina Johnson’s Art Club at South Albany High School. The students asked her if she knew of anyone they could help through their art. Fortunately, Lorina is friends with LovingHaiti. The students came up with the idea of Art Bags, personalized for each child. They started by viewing the childrens’ profiles on the lovinghaiti.org website. They learned the childrens’ interests and dreams. They started with blank canvas bags and started painting. The results […]
Pastor called me over to listen. He was sitting with a young boy and old woman. He introduced her as Madam Pigourne and asked her to tell me the story. She stood up and very dramatically, with lots of hand gestures and shouts, told this tale while Pastor interpreted: “I am old – very old, 82 years. I hurt when I walk but I go each day to the river. This day was 12 […]
