Hurricane Matthew update

Haiti is getting hit very hard right now.  Our prayers are being lifted for all of those dealing with the storm but especially those most vulnerable.   There are areas that are getting completely washed out especially in the southern part of Haiti.  Matthew is moving up through Haiti today and we continue to pray that it weakens in strength.

The Good Samaritan kids, Max & Margarette, Junior and family are all ok and are in safe locations. We will continue to get updates as long as they have phone or internet service.

Belot needs your prayers.  The wind is taking the roofs from their homes.  So much water is washing down the mountain into and through their homes.  Some are in the church now which sits on high ground.  Thank you to those who gave financially toward the church building and roof, it is a safe haven for this community.  They are drinking the rain water and have a little food.  They may lose much of their crops that grow all over the mountain side.  We don't know much more yet, but Pastor Reginald will keep us posted as he can get there or hears from families.

PLEASE PRAY!
