| Update on Earthquake Crisis in
Haiti 1/15/10: We are extremely thankful
that our two orphanages were spared and our American missionary and
children are safe so far. However they are running out of supplies
such as water, cooking gas, and fuel. They are rationing
everything. They do have some food but then will need cooking gas
to cook it.
Our cell phones in Haiti are not working and we lost
any Internet communication. Our only means of to communicate right
now is through a local friend and orphanage in Thomassin, God's Littlest
Angels (http://glahaiti.org/). who
has satellite communication.
We need to receive aid from the current
government agencies such as the Red Cross but so far have had no direct
way to reach them.
Thank you to all our donors who have been calling us
with promised donations. We are collecting donations and will ship
them as soon as there is a means to transport and receive goods into
Haiti. We need food, water, clothing, blankets, shoes, disposable
diapers, medical supplies and water purification tablets. We also
need things such as satellite phones and systems so that we can have
communications set up in Haiti.
Our shipping address to send donations is:
The Church of Bible Understanding
