Another busy week getting items purchased and packed to come back to Haiti. We arrived back here last Saturday. We left KY Thursday morning early and headed to Nashville to prepare to load a 40 ft container on Friday. PTL! we had 42 people show up to help us sort, sack and load. Teams of people came from Bells Run Church , Walnut Memorial Church, Bellvue Church in Owensboro, KY, Paul Scott team from Orleans, IN, people from Louisville and Nashville. It looked impossible to sort all the clothes in Tommy Scott's warehouse but this crew "got it done." The container arrived about 2 hrs late so many of the team members who drove so far sacrificed their time and returned home very late. THANKS TO ALL WHO GAVE ITEMS FOR THIS CONTAINER AND THANKS TO ALL WHO CAME AND LOADED THE CONTAINER.
We arrived back to a country that is being ravaged by cholera. So many new cases and many dying for lack of knowledge on how to treat and reduce the spread of the disease. Our plane coming back to Haiti had at least 95% medical people coming to serve. Pray for the release of a plane load of IV's that is being held in customs ???? Why????. These are needed in the treatment of the cholera cases. Our nursing staff is doing education in the schools and churches here in our area and helping others man their clinics. It is 24 hr round the clock at all clinics and hospitals. PRAY PRAY PRAY
