Jan 19, 2010

The team is on the ground and working. One group is in town at a local hospital and the other working with our nurse there on the compound. They are already calling for extra supplies to be flown into them. PRAY!!!!!!!!! We need a miracle to get these supplies to them before their time is finished there.
One group of 7 men came from northern Haiti and stopped at our compound to find a place a to stay and go out and repair wells. They came with all the supplies they would need. David gave them our GPS and a list of all our well locations and sent them out to see if there were wells to repair.
Right now we are feeding about 90 + people on the ground....70 of them are Americans and then some of our Haitian staff. The number continues to grow.
David sent Pastor Etienne out yesterday to find rice, beans and oil. He was able to find a warehouse that still had food. Etienne left again this morning to buy and bring back to the compound the rest of the food in the warehouse. Struggling to find the cash needed to purchase all of this. PTL! I had sent some in with the team yesterday. Just not enough. Maybe on the next flight.
I'm going to our church right now to pack what supplies have been left there and then UPS is trucking all we have to Venice , FL for the flights over to Haiti.
