Time seems to be creeping as so many are searching for loved ones & help. Lots of heoric stories of those who have given their lives to protect others from falling debri. Slowly, victims are coming to our gate for treatment after being turned away from broken down or "out of supply" hospitals. Many large, open wounds full of debri, too old to suture.
We've said it before & we'll say it again, God is in control & we will continue to be his hands extended.
No new tremors today and I think everyone slept well last night. The team patiently waits word of when the airport will be open for their flight home, it won't be today. It has been reported that the run way is in good condition but the control tower suffered heavy damage.
We have some local phone service but it's still not 100%. Gas stations are not open & markets are still closed. We are in conservation mode.
One of our Kindergarten students at the Gramothe school died after suffering injuries from fallen debris. The family is unable to find a casket for burial. A couple of men on the team will build one for them.
We can hear a church singing in the distance. The death wail across the valley has come to a hush with the exception of an occasional cry. The presence of God in the singing church brings peace to the spirit of the people here.
Please continue to pray for Haiti & her people & those working to help them. Thank you in advance for your help.

Thank you for continuing these posts, Beth. We are praying for you all.
Beth, we're praying for all of you. Is there any way we can send you all some financial help for those who are hurting and displaced? We still pray that God allows us to come at some not too distant date, but in the meantime, we are thinking and praying! God bless and keep you safe. With love, Dixie and Larry
Beth,
Please know that we are praying for everyone. Kenjany is very concerned about Memose and her half brother. Kenjany wanted me to write to you and the following are her words. She is standing next to me telling me what to write. "Please tell Memose and my brother I say Hi. Tell Rachel I hope she don't get hurt. You guys will always be in my life forever and I hope that you guys don't get sick." Love, Care, Share, Kenjany Edwards We love you all!
