We have heard that a large majority of Haitians, and many other Caribbean countries, have contacted the “Chikungunya fever” that is carried by mosquitoes. The word “Chikungunya” comes from an African word that means “contorted with pain.” There are so many cases here in which a burning high fever brings extreme pain in the hands, joints, ankles and feet. One of our board members was flying into Haiti today, but her flight was cancelled because of the fever outbreak on the plane. Please remember us in your prayers. Bobby and Sherry
