Somber

Continued water distribution, devastation, helping with moving folks to St Marc...


Marcel: I am doing good,tired some,trying to take it easy a little bit
Art: Good, many are asking how you are doing.
Marcel: I was able to help with some stuff today at the hospital in Saint-Marc ,I gave them some pain medication,Surgical dressings,Gloves,they are in need of a lot of other stuff like surgeon's caps,boots,stitches,braces for neck,sterilize gloves all sizes
Art: I will send out the info regarding medical supplies, some that have contacted us are working with Terry on sending supplies. Suspect that will take some time to arrive though?
Marcel: we are very thankful for what we can do here for God with your help,we are so blessed.
Art: Amen, we are blessed.
Marcel: We are going to buy a lot of food to distribute to the people because I talk to the Mayor in town today ,he said the most important things that we could do now is to provide those folks with some food,there are three places in town for refugees ,some are over at the hospital,YWAM compound and maguana motel,those people were asked to evacuate Port au Prince,and most of them do not have a place to go to and it is the same for almost every other city so, we have many fish to fry here.
Art: Ok, I will send out that word. Will EMEVI schools continue, we have heard that the National Schools are closing for the rest of the year?
Marcel: We are yet to find out what the governement want us to do,I think they might end up taking two months to build enough tent to accomodate the condition of the students in PAP and start from there all the way through August,so no summer this year,that is what I think they need to do. I meant no summer break. In the meanwhile we will have the kids come with no unifrom next week to talk with them and their parents to really know how to aproach this.
Art: Ok, we will pray with you regarding this. Any specific prayer requests we can send on?
Marcel: Pray for order,and comprehension from the victims as the US soldiers distribute the food and that God gives us wisdom to make good decision everyday
