Dear Scott,
Pastor Antoine Called from Haiti!
Pastor Antoine was able to contact me from Haiti for a few minutes again and the 2nd update is:
The Trade School in completely destroyed
Pastor Osnels house is completely destroyed and they are sure that his wife Aliza and baby James and Joesmith are probably dead and they are buried in the rubble and there are no sounds left from them
Jude their little girl crawled out of the rubble and she has survived..............Pastor Osnel is okay because he was not in the house when the earthquake hit.
our School security wall is down but the school is still standing
All of the houses in the area are destroyed except the Homeless Shelter and Neply Church stayed standing and people are gathered there but it cannot hold the thousands of people who are homeless
There are still aftershocks happening too
Many people are dead in our area and injured and without food and water
We have no information on the Rum Village yet
The orphanage kids are fine but the security wall has broken down
The bank in Leogane has been completely destroyed so they have no way to get money out of the bank and that is a huge problem
I have asked them to keep me up-dated when they can get a connection again to tell me if I need to fly to Haiti and bring cash to them and supplies................
Pastor Antoine's last comment was................our area in Haiti is completely destroyed!!!
We need major prayer, a whole lot of wisdom, emergency relief funds and more prayer, prayer, prayer to know how to handle this crisis. Pastor Antoine was trying to be strong on the phone but I could tell he has no idea how to help all the thousands who are looking to him as a leader. He is completely exhausted and trying to think of the best ways we can help in the situation.
Right now the Homeless shelter is full of people who need help and they are praying for Haiti and comforting each other!!
Thank you for your continued prayers in this difficult time,
Joy Jones
