A missionary from Haiti’s call for help following hurricane’s destruction


I  feel like Nehemiah when he heard of the destruction of Jerusalem, and he was in a foreign land. I am in Port au Prince, Haiti but the villages in the areas where we have churches are in dire need. What little they had, is now taken away!! (At this writing my husband, is still stranded in the village due to washed away bridges.) Every village where we have planted a church has been damaged by the hurricane. All the roads to these villages have been destroyed. The roads and bridges need to be rebuilt or repaired.  Marche Kabrit has no water. The water source has been destroyed. We need to get food (bags of rice, corn, beans) to the people. Right now they are eating the animals that have died during Hurricane, and the fruit from the fallen trees.
This is an email from a missionary serving in Haiti, which was struck by Hurricane Fay and now Gustav. These are the some of the desperate needs Agape Flights exists to meet. More than 50 people were killed after tropical storm Gustav struck Haiti on August 26. Please keep the missionaries, the Haitian and Dominican people and Agape Flights in your prayers.
