Our Children
In July of 2005, Rescue Children Orphanage officially
opened its doors in Haiti near the capital of Port-au-Prince. We are
located in the Santo area within 30 minutes of Toussaint Louverture
International Airport and less than 45 minutes from the Dominican
Republic. Currently, 17 children are registered with plans to add more
children in the future. We are also blessed to have a great
staff
to help us with the children. To view or print photos, visit our
News/Media page.
Rescue Children has begun a new school program at
orphanage. Click here

the children's photo taken on first day of school and
a short video of
them singing.
Many of you have asked about information to sponsor a
child. We are now happy to provide some background information on
each child registered at Rescue Children Orphanage so you can select
children which you would like to help. Please visit
Bios to download or print photos and information on our children and
Photo Gallery
to see the beautiful kids at our orphanage.
What a joy and blessing to work with these beautiful boys
and girls who range from one year to 15 years. About half of them are
attending school for the first time in their lives. Please pray for
us to receive funds, materials and labor to build our own orphanage in
Haiti. We would like to have a nice, big piece of land to raise
goats, pigs, ducks and chickens and to have garden to grow some of our
food. This would be a good project for the children.

We experienced a miracle at our orphanage in January
2006. Junior Bellevue, our former Director, was near the orphanage
when an elderly lady passed by with an infant. The lady inquired if
anyone knew of a place where someone might take a baby and explained that
the baby's mother had left her and never came back. She was carrying
the baby to the trash dump, which too often becomes a dumping ground for
infants whose mothers are too poor to feed them and just leave them
there. Junior approached the woman and took the baby in his
arms. She seemed relieved and left quickly. Although we had
planned to accept children 3 years and up, we could not bear to see this
innocent little child left to die because no one wanted her. We
named her July-Angela Bellevue and she is everybody's baby. We love
her so much and pray that God will send special parents to her.
