Praying for your child, and ours. We have 2 Compassion International children in the Dominican Republic, one who is very close to the Haitian border. Also 2 children we sponsor through Food for the Hungry, but they are farther from the Haitian border - more to the south and east side of the island.
Thanks so much. Return prayers. I was listening to FOX and the Dominican Republic doesn’t sound like it was hit as badly, but according to one report the Dominican Republic government tried to contact the Haitian government to offer assistance, and COULD NOT CONTACT ANYONE. Having been in Haiti, this doesn’t surprise me too much, but being in Port Au Prince on a good day is a bad experience. It’s been raining the last couple of days and I’m trying to imagine all those concrete cinderblock buildings collapsing in a city of 3 million with no communications, no electricity, no garbage pickup and half the population living in tents anyway. Haiti is close to Hell without a natural disaster.
