Haiti news

I really have no new news out of Haiti. I would ask you to pray for two specific things that are being reported by Troy Livesay via Twitter. (Troy and his family are an American missionary family who live in Port au Prince) Troy is reporting that they have not been able to get into Delmas 31 as it is severely damaged. I believe this is the neighborhood Kenson's orphanage is in and no one has had contact with them since about 20 minutes after the initial quake. (Somebody from FHG correct me if I'm wrong.) They made contact but no one has been able to get ahold of them since. Members of the board are hoping to be on the ground in Haiti today but that's only if they can get in. Please pray for the orphanage staff and children, for the board members who are traveling, and for the many worried parents both in Haiti, the US, Argentina, France, etc. who are waiting for word.

According to another adoptive parent who is friends with Tara Livesay on Facebook, FHG kids are okay. No news on the actual building. That was posted about half an hour ago.

Also Troy is reporting that many have their bags packed and are ready to leave the city of Port Au Prince. This mass exodus is going to create chaos and strain many other cities and towns in Haiti. Last night, my friend John who has worked with Grace Mission which is located in Cap Haitian, 100 miles from Port Au Prince, said that they are preparing for a huge influx of people fleeing the city. Many other ministries are probably bracing for this as well. Pray that they would have the resources they need to meet the needs of so many. Specific ministries you can pray for by name that will probably be receiving people include Haiti Children's Home, Real Hope for Haiti, and Grace Mission.
