Child Rearing and Education. Very young children are indulged, but by the age of seven or eight most rural children engage in serious work. Children are important in retrieving household water and firewood and helping to cook and clean around the house. Children look after livestock, help their parents in the garden, and run errands. Parents and guardians are often harsh disciplinarians, and working-age children may be whipped severely. Children are expected to be respectful to adults and obedient to family members, even to siblings only a few years older than themselves. They are not allowed to talk back or stare at adults when being scolded. They are expected to say thank you and please. If a child is given a piece of fruit or bread, he or she must immediately begin breaking the food and distributing it to other children. The offspring of elite families are notoriously spoiled and are reared from an early age to lord it over their less fortunate compatriots.
Tremendous importance and prestige are attached to education. Most rural parents try to send their children at least to primary school, and a child who excels and whose parents can afford the costs is quickly exempted from the work demands levied on other children.

As far back as I can remember my mom Sheryl Murrah has been going to Haiti when I was about 3 I remember being in the basement and seeing her packing and washing clothes. I asked her what are you doing mommy? She said baby you know the Haitians that I tell you about well these clothes are for them and I said why can't they buy their own things? She said cause doesn't have the money to do so. I then said well why don't they move here she said cause that's there home. I then went up stairs and gathered some of my toys and came back in the basement and put them in the box. 
At the age of 5 I did my first presentation at McDonald's, Wendy's and etc. I would give my spill to the managers and get the happy meals for the toys. They would come out with boxes of toys as donations. 
My parents traveled the country doing benefit concerts and my mom would do speaking engagements to bring awareness of the conditions in Haiti. My dad would sing. 
Then it was time for her to leave and go. I would beg and beg to go but she always said that I was to young. I would be sad when she left but I knew she wouldn't have left if she didn't have too. She sacrificed a lot my birthdays, her birthdays, Christmas, spring breaks and her life for her love. Missionary Work in Haiti.
For my sixteenth birthday (which was this March) she and my family paid my expenses to Haiti. The experience was so amazing to help so many villages, plenty of churches and get to play with kids. Its a life changing experience. My whole perceptive on life has changed and so will yours.
Thanks Mommy for being you~

sis Tabitha Csdcv garden in Haiti. She and the children are working the fields to produce food. 

The St Raphael CoC. It took us 4 hours one way to reach this location. They have two ministers, I don't remember the 1st ones name but I do remember Bro Richard. Bro Richard is a graduate from the CBT 2nd class. He was sought out by the leaders of this church to be taught the gospel. Bro Richard has several churches that he works with along with working with the CBT. I will share more abt Richard at a later date.

The Bathroom at the Lamoliere CoC. Just a piece of clothe, no privacy or toilet paper. Can you help? Will you Help?

We don't want to appear to be beggars or  pests. Only servants of the LORD. That has charged us to care for the widows and the orphanages in their distress, to feed, to clothes, to visit those that are sick and in prison. That's what I do and that's who I am. My heart is in the right place, helping others here in the U.S., Haiti and other countries as well.
As time rapidly approaches we have not met our targets as of yet. But I know we will exceed our goal. Because that's what GOD does, when we trust HIM. However a week or so ago. I ask if there was anyone that was willing to sponsor a sister to go to Haiti and got a few responses. Which is great. I am asking again. If you are financially able to do so, please let me know. It's not require to pay the full amount which is about $1,500.00 pp, but if you can find it in your heart to help with the big ticket items like the airfares would be a bonus. Or if you can only afford to pay for someone's room and board that's $140.00 for the week. That's awesome. We'll take it. We're here for a purpose and a cause. We're here because we are liked-minded, we are here because Missionary Work is Designed and Approved by God. Think on it. Let me know. We must have everything paid for by Jan 20th. Bless someone, Bless GOD too, for blessing You. Please send check donations payable to : Compassion Haitian Leaders, P.O.Box 23047 Charlotte, NC 28227, for more info, please call 650-766-0822.
I had to speak out. Since I found out about what happened to my sister, friend and fellow missionary worker in Haiti. I sat back and watched people post the article about her death. My perspective~ Roberta is not a Breaking News Story. She was my sister. She was dedicated and a faithful worker for GOD in Haiti. I've known her for 20 years. When I 1st started going to Haiti 1996, Roberta Audate was the buzz about her work in Haiti. I had to met her and get to know her. We talked and talked and the relationship grew. We could identify with each other and the lack of attention and support that missionary work in Haiti received. How it was a non-factor to so many African Americans in general and in the church.
But that didn't stop either of us. We continue to do GOD's work. For many years Jeff Murrah and myself supported her. She was grateful and humbled. She took kids into her home. Never turning them away. She went through storms and stayed the course. She loved the Haitian people as they were her people. She spoke the language fluently and was very comfortable (maybe too comfortable) in Haiti. She was home.
I am going to say this again, she is NOT a Breaking News Story or someone that you should feel sorry for. She's died doing what she loved.
I say this to you all that may read this. I have been asking for support for Haiti for 20 years and have been rejected by most and ignored by some. Sometimes asking people right here on FaceBook for a mere $2.00 and crickets. If you really care about Roberta or her story has pricked your heart, Please Support what she died doing, helping the Haitian People. Please Donate and support the Missionary Workers for Haiti. Do something other than feel sorry or sad for her. Roberta is good, she had fought the good fight. She's with the Lord now. ‪#‎mourningthelostfortheliving‬

We have another SHOUT OUT for our beloved Belinda Moore for her generous donation. May Our GOD continue to bless you as you have blessed HIS People. To God be the Glory!! #ITSALLABTGOD
GOD is still at work. Blessing us much more than we deserve. His servant Aida Pellon has pledged to sponsor another sister. That's 2 in one night. We now have a total of 3 sisters that have committed to sponsor a sister to travel to Haiti. I believe we have more, I know GOD will touch others' hearts and they too will commit. Because it 's ALL ABOUT GOD and HIM getting the Glory that HE and only HE deserves. Let's give GOD the Praise for all things. Thank HIM for all things. Thank YOU JESUS. Thank You!!
