PORT-AU-PRINCE — Every night, at the end of devotions, we sing the old Nat King Cole song “L-O-V-E,” and we end it with a chant:

“1-2-3…Goodnight, Chika!”

"Thank you for sharing, inspiring and giving us hope in seeing what's right with the world." —Sue B.
Joy is the fuel that makes Have Faith Haiti go. Experience the laughs, hardships, and love of a big, sprawling, wildly different family through the eyes and voices of its children. Your subscription fee supports the orphanage in Haiti and gives you access to exclusive benefits!
