I Don’t Know How They Survive

We have been living and working here in Haiti for many years. When we first moved to Haiti, I thought we had seen the worst… but now, through the years and especially these last few years, it has gone “from bad to worse.” We not only have gangs blocking the roads so that the poor cannot pass to sell, but if and when the mothers can sell, often there are gangs around, ready to take the mother’s money.

Just recently we had an extremely malnourished baby brought to our Malnutrition Clinic. The aunt was raising the baby because the mother “had lost her mind,” and could not care for the child. Then, when the aunt sold anything to make money, the robbers took it. We now see more children and mothers drinking “saltwater soup” because they have no food and children eating “mud cookies” more often.

Pray for the people and children of Haiti, and also for the missionaries whose hearts are for the poor… There are many times we cannot sleep and tears come often. Thank you for your love and support.
