Yesterday was a day of highs and lows. Joyce Scott and I met Becky Ivy, Casey Dean, Dr. Hurley, Dr Milem and Andy Johnson (pilot for the plane going to Haiti) at the airport hanger. We needed to prioritze items going on the plane. We have a medical team of 5 flying in with supplies but of course space was limited. This flight was supposed to be a "go" for Friday. No slots available to land in Haiti. After many phone calls, etc. we now have a slot for Monday at 4 pm. PTL!!! Please pray that all goes well. This plane will have to fly from Owensboro on Sunday at noon...pick up 3 of the team in Chatanooga and fly to Venice where they will overnight and then to PAP on Monday.
Almost had a glitch....word was received that the airport in PAP was not secure but after speaking with David he confirmed that all was okay there. Tim had been at the airport and saw lots of confusion but no lack of security. We were blessed that MFI brought in about a "ton" of very needed medical supplies for us. Tim was able to load them and leave the airport with no problems.
The NC team went into PAP and worked at a hospital there. So much to do and so few hands. We know that many want to come but the transportation is lacking. Pray that the tons of supplies coming in can get out to those in need.
I (Judy) appreciate all the phone calls, emails and visits. Your compassion and out pouring of love for all of us has been a blessing.
David called me and said Samaritan's Purse started moving in supplies and disaster relief items to our property yesterday. Praise the Lord for a working phone
Received a call from Tom Christopher that his team arrived safely back in Danville, KY after catching a ride on the Samaritan's Purse airplane.
