Haiti Needs Your Prayers!!

Please keep Haiti in your prayers. They are currently being hit by their 3rd hurricane in less than two weeks. Thousands of Haitians are now without homes, clothing, food and clean water. Many people have lost their lives in these storms and many more are still unaccounted for due to flooding and derbis. The river near the rescue center/clinic is still very swollen but was starting to recede,although now that more rain is being dumped on them it is sure to rise once again. They are almost completely out of clean drinking water. By tomorrow evening it will most likely be completely gone. With so many bottles to make, meals to cook, children to bathe, clothes to wash, and a full clinic and rescue center to keep clean, the loss of clean water could literally be the difference between life and death. We have not heard anything specific about the orphans in Port-au-Prince but I do know that a few towns outside of the city have been flooded and shelters have been set up in Port-au-Prince. Please keep all of Haiti in your prayers. Pray for their safety from the storms, strength to rebuild, receding flood waters, and clean drinking water.
