Cheering wildly

One of our beloved friends was Dr. Potter. Physically, he was not able to do much as cancer had taken his toll on his body. But his mind was sharp, and one of his favorite sayings was, “I can cheer wildly from the sidelines.”

My dad had an emergency shoulder surgery yesterday to repair a dislocated prosthetic shoulder that had been installed six years ago but had been faulty from the beginning (dislocating).

Many people poured out prayers and well wishes on his behalf. We are all cheering loudly for him from the sidelines. At 81 years old, surgery is delicate, but he’s strong as an ox, in excellent health, and is very content with his life.

We need to remember to cheer for others as it’s easy to get stuck in our own heads and bogged down in the mundaneness of all the tasks that we must do.

We must celebrate the small things because they are the big things.

Remember to cheer for yourself too. The relationship that you carry with your own self is one of the most important one, outside of our personal relationship with God.

Cheer wildly. Applaud others. Celebrate the victories. Thank the ones who make this life more interesting. Thank you again.

"Paul speaking, “I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.’”
Ephesians 1:16

700 Stories

Today is a very special day. It is the 700th story that I have written and posted on social media. The first 365 stories are wrapped up in my first book in ‘From His Heart to Mine, a Story a Day to Bless Your Life’ that was released on Amazon April 2026.

God leaned on my heart summer of 2024 asking that I write stories that showed how He loved us, how deeply He is interested in our everyday moments, and to show His provision and protection at every corner.

I was slow to be obedient and didn't write for a couple of months. Remember, that I was the little girl who had a really hard time learning how to read and write. So, to write a story every day (for how long, Lord?) was quite a mental challenge.

I wondered what I would write about. I pondered the messages. I wondered if anyone would care about farm life.

And then the stories started downloading. Sometimes several in one day. Occasionally, none at all. But there was always one for each day.

In thirty more days, I will have completed year two and the end of volume two.

I’m not sure if there will be a volume three. I am waiting on the Holy Spirit to see if stories keep downloading.

I hope you enjoyed them as much as I have enjoyed writing. Comments, questions, or story requests are always welcomed. Feel free to share any that touch your heart. If you’d like to purchase as copy of Vol.1, the Amazon link is down below. Enjoy.

Thank you for being a part of this great work.

“Tell it to your children, and let your children tell it to their children, and their children to the next generation."

🎉 THE BEST NEWS! 🎉

As of today, all 22 children are sponsored! ❤️🇭🇹

That means 22 children in Haiti will be able to walk through the doors of their school and begin another year of learning. And today, I wired the money directly, so they can get started.

And I want to make this very clear: 100% of the money given for these children goes directly to the school. Not a portion. Not after expenses. 100%.

Twenty-two children.

Twenty-two opportunities.

Twenty-two families who can breathe a little easier knowing their children will have a place at school this year.

I have shared this journey with you because I believe education is one of the greatest gifts we can give a child. In a country where access to consistent education can be incredibly difficult, getting these children into a school that will actually be open and teaching is life-changing.

And today, YOU made it happen.

To every person who sponsored a child, shared a post, prayed, gave, encouraged, or simply helped spread the word—thank you. You didn’t just give money. You gave children a chance.

I wish you could see the faces of these 22 children.

I wish you could hear their excitement.

And I wish you could know just how much your generosity means to them.

22 children. 22 sponsors. One beautiful answered prayer. ❤️

But there is one more thing I want you to know…

There are still children waiting.

We were able to sponsor 22 children this year, but there are more children who would love the opportunity to go to school.

If we have more sponsors, we can send more children.

So today, we celebrate these 22. And if God provides more sponsors, we will keep going—one child at a time.

Because every child we can put in a classroom is one more child with a chance at a different future.

Thank you for helping me send these children to school. Thank you for believing that their education matters. And thank you for being part of something that is so much bigger than any one of us.

22 children are going to school because people said YES. ❤️🇭🇹

A Gentle Ask From WildeWood Farm

Sunday left a very unexpected hole at WildeWood Farm.

With the unexpected passing of our beloved Titan, we have an 18-hand-sized gap in our jumping horse lesson program, and, more importantly, a place where a good horse could come and have a meaningful second chapter.

So, I’m putting out a gentle feeler to all of you who know horses and know people who love them.

We are looking for a kind, sound, experienced horse who enjoys his or her job and might be ready for a change (or has an issue that I might be able to fix).

Perhaps an older horse who needs to step down from a more demanding jumping career.
Perhaps a horse whose young rider is heading off to college.

Perhaps a horse who has done his competitive job and is looking for something quieter.

Perhaps simply a horse who needs a job and would enjoy being part of a herd, teaching children, and being loved.

Our jumping is modest, we don’t jump over 2 feet, but we do need a horse who is comfortable jumping small fences and is safe, dependable and willing.

A donation would be wonderful (I can offer a tax receipt). A care lease would also be considered.

We are not looking for a perfect show horse. We are looking for a good horse with a good heart who might enjoy becoming a teacher.

Titan leaves some very big shoes to fill.

If someone comes to mind, please send them this post or have them reach out to me. Sometimes the horse who needs a new job and the program that needs a horse simply need someone to connect the two.

Thank you for helping us spread the word.

Many people eat these when there’s nothing else to eat. Imagine serving your children dirt for dinner.

We have no idea what poverty looks like 

For some families in Haiti, these clay-based discs have become associated with the heartbreaking reality of extreme poverty and food insecurity.

Known in Haitian Creole as bonbon tè, meaning “earth cookies,” they are often made from clay, salt, and shortening or another type of fat. They provide little nutritional value, yet during times of severe hardship, some people have turned to them to cope with hunger.

While these “mud cookies” or “dirt cookies” have become one of the more striking images associated with poverty in Haiti, they are also a reminder that this is only one part of Haiti’s story.

Haiti is a country filled with beautiful communities, rich culture, resilient people, dedicated missionaries, churches, ministries, and families working every day toward a better future.

For Missionary Flights International, stories like these remind us why humanitarian assistance and long-term, sustainable solutions to hunger and poverty continue to matter.

Before today, had you ever heard of Haiti’s “dirt cookies”? If you have ever seen or tried one, what was your experience? We’d love to hear from you in the comments.

22 Children. One Year. A Lifetime of Change.

An Amazing Update… and a Big Opportunity!

I have some wonderful news to share!
Our goal this year is to send 22 children in Haiti to school; this has been an ongoing 6 year project.

As of yesterday, we had 8 children sponsored.

Then a very generous donor reached out and offered to sponsor 5 more children! But she didn't stop there... She said, "If you can find sponsors for just 2 more children, I'll match those gifts by sponsoring 2 additional children myself."

What an incredible blessing!
That means we now have the opportunity to send 17 children to school—and we're only 7 sponsors away from reaching our goal of all 22 children!

For just $350, you can sponsor one child's education for an entire year.

Sometimes, we see so much need in the world that we don't know where to begin or how to help. This is one opportunity where you can know exactly where your gift is going. One hundred percent of your sponsorship goes directly to sending a child to school.

Education doesn't guarantee a child will escape poverty—but without an education, the chances become much smaller. A child who can read, write, and learn has opportunities that simply don't exist otherwise. Your gift doesn't just impact one student; it gives hope to an entire family and helps break the cycle of poverty, one child at a time.

Every donation is tax-deductible through The Mane Event Equine Therapy, Inc., our 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

Would you consider being one of our final 7 sponsors?
Your gift of $350 could change the direction of a child's life forever.
If you'd like to sponsor a child or have any questions, please send me a message. Together, we can open doors that poverty has tried to keep closed.

Thank you for believing that every child deserves the opportunity to learn, to dream, and to build a brighter future.

My name is Lesnar Alcéma. I come from a family of four children, and I have three sisters. We live in Haiti, where my family faces many financial challenges.

My father, Arilès Alcéma, is unemployed and has no stable source of income. My mother, Célamène Joseph, is living with a disability, which makes it impossible for her to work and help support our family. Because of these difficult circumstances, my parents are unable to pay my school tuition or provide all the materials I need for my education.

Even though life is difficult, I have a strong desire to learn. I believe that education is the best way to change my future and one day help my parents and my sisters. Going to school is more than just attending classes, it is my opportunity to dream, grow, and prepare for a better life.

Today, I need someone who is willing to invest in my future. With the support of a caring sponsor, I can continue my education without the fear of having to leave school because my family cannot afford the costs.

Your support would mean more than paying for my education. It would give me hope, encouragement, and the opportunity to build a brighter future for myself and my family.

Thank you for considering helping me continue my education. Your kindness can make a lasting difference in my life.

Sincerely,

Lesnar Alcéma

To sponsor her for a school year is $350. This includes tuition, a meal a day, very basic school supplies, and a backpack. Will you help? 100% of the money goes to her schooling.
