Continue to pray for Rebecca. She is still not able to contact her dad. Phone service is still down and battery power is going fast! Pray that she will be the Heart and Hand of Christ as she works.
This is from missionaries in Haiti. It seems to be what everyone is saying down there. Read and take note!
You are asking what you can do ... we are going to need Diesel, Water, Food ... things you cannot really easily do. SO - give money. The two organizations Troy and I work with and for both need help and are both reputable. The giant organizations are fine too if that is what you prefer. Money is the number one need (and ability to purchase the supplies) and MEDICAL PERSONNEL. Coming down if you are not willing to risk and get in and clean out horrific wounds would just tax an already taxed place. Medical professionals should contact organizations with the ability to coordinate efforts and try to get here. It won't help to have more non-medical people to feed and house. Hope that does not sound harsh - but it is truth. Troy and Tara
