Pray for Haiti

The names "Hannah and Ike" do not seem that threatening .... not like "Spike or Hannibal." But when they happen to be the names of hurricane's the threat is magnified. The northwest coast of Haiti suffered their wrath recently. The mission (Northwest Haiti Christian Mission) that I have served at in previous years happens to be on the northwest coast. My heart has been overwhelmed in considering the tragedy that has struck people who have so little to begin with.


Looking out the back door of the church at Ansefoleur. This church is located right on the ocean and the damage has weakened the foundation. The railing to the right of the church is for the stairs that take you to the 2nd floor.

A picture I took the summer of 2006 of some kids at "The Bay."

Damage from Hannah and Ike at "The Bay."

The mission's feeding station at the Bay
(minus the roof torn off from the hurricane).

Looking from the mission towards the church (with the red roof).
Yeah, the water isn't supposed to be there.

Inside one of the missionary couple's homes.

Looking out of the mission at the outside restrooms (blue building).

The road to the mission.

I believe this is looking off the mission roof at a truck
parked next to the mission.

The "living room" of the mission.

The mission is responding to the need of the Haitian people as quickly
as they can. They have begun distributing food and assessing the
damage. Janeil (the executive director) has determined that if 300
people could donate $250 he could rebuild 300 Haitian homes
(a home for as many as 14 people!). Right now families without
homes are living in the cemeteries.

Any help is appreciated. If you have considered it and would like to
donate CLICK HERE. And above all else please PRAY for the people
of Haiti and the missionaries that love them.
