Haiti Quake - Day 4
Sat, 2010-01-16 18:55
Now 96 hours after the earthquake. Marie and I are well and safe. I am on my 8th trip to the Dominican Republic border town of Jimani, transporting injured brothers and sisters, and maintaining communications with our brothers in the Dominican Republic Branch who are helping enormously in our relief support.
I am bringing back into Haiti our 9th medical doctor, a brother who flew in from the USA to offer his assistance. We also have 11 nurses that have traveled in to work with the doctors. Over 120 persons have been treated at our first aid center, set up in our Assembly Hall.
A relief committee has taken charge of the situation and is involved in sending out food packages to our brothers and sisters in yards of Kingdom Halls in the Port-au-Prince area.
All of our missionaries are reported well, and actively offering their assistance to injured friends in their territory.
This is my first occasion to contact many of you who have written over the last few days, as our Internet connection is now available. We thank you so much for your love and interest in our brothers and sisters, and your prayers.
Love, John & Marie
