About

Richard came to us with his brother, Willie as orphans. Their parents had passed away before Richard was 8. Richard and his brother are extremely helpful, continually looking for ways to assist others. Richard's true passion is worship; his high, enthusiastic singing voice can be heard above all the other boys during our praise and worship times. He also learned guitar and loves playing his favorite worship songs. He enjoys playing soccer and helping with work projects around the home. Richard will often follow an adult around waiting for a new "project." Please pray that Richard would grow in his young faith to become a godly and devoted young man.

Our church, with Pastor David Beck is talking about planning another trip to Haiti.you and all the kids are in my prayers every day. Give Christella a hug for me too!!!

Hi Richard. Katie and I were so sad not to make it to Haiti this year. We have moved, she is in a new school and my husband and I have new jobs. She is playing lots of violin, running and having fun!!!
We are in Missouri and it is hot today almost as hot as Haiti. I hope you have a great summer and school goes well. The attached picture is Katie in her running gear with my Daddy from England. God Bless Caroline

Bonjour Richard - J’espère que tu continues avec tes études en français et aussi en anglais et peut-être aussi en espagnol. Ces langues t’aideront beaucoup à réussir. J’aime bien que tu m’écris en français car j’ai besoin de le pratiquer comme toi. Dis-moi, est-ce que tu aimes lire ? Parle-moi d’un bon livre que tu as lu ? Tu joues toujours du violon ?

Bonjour Richard! Je m'appelle Ellie, et j'appris le français aux Étas-Unis dans le Kansas. Mon prof de français a visité ton école en mars 2013. Il est super que tu aimes chanter! Moi, j'aime danser. Dit bonjour à ton frère pour moi. J'ai une soeur qui a 14 ans! Maintenant, il est trop froid dans le Kansas pour moi. Je préfère quand il fait beau et je suis à la plage. Je vois que tu aimes la classe de maths. C'est mon sujet favorit aussi! J'aime les numeros plus que j'aime écriver, mais c'est important aussi. J'espère que tu nous écriveras! Aussi, j'espère que tout va bien pour toi!! Sincères salutations, Ellie

Hi Richard,

My name is Jaclyn, and I am a student at Brown University who works with The School Fund. It's great to see you post in your journal. I noticed from your profile that you would like to become a singer. That's so cool! Which types of songs do you like to sing? I like to sing Broadway and pop music.

Keep in touch,
Jaclyn
