My heart was so heavy when I heard the news on CNN about the 7.0 earthquake to hit Haiti. The country is literally in shambles, and will take years to rebuild. Karen and I have good friends there who have a mission helping the people of Haiti to work for themselves. We just heard that they are all ok. There compound is in bad shape.The small country is just now assessing the total damage that will take time. The main concern is to keep a search and rescue moving for a few more days. Heep Haiti in your prayers. I stayed glued to facebook until I heard the news that our friends were ok, and sent a message to all about the same. You do not know how hard it is to wait for some words from loved ones. Karen and I went to Haiti in the 80's to help when Beverly was pregnant, and work in the city( Port-AU- Prince) to acquire supplies.
Please join me in prayer for the thousands that are still trapped under concrete structures. Pray also for relief in food, and water. Remember that life is not so much about you, but about us helping others. Have a great day, Van
