Sherry and I were scheduled to leave this morning for our 150-miles three-day journey to bring food to a very poor area. When we go there, we feed 1,000 children six days a week a hot meal from our Feed My Starving Children food. We hire the cooks to do for six days a week because the children there are very hungry.

We received word from Nelio, our director (who was born in the village,) that it’s much too dangerous to travel there today or anytime soon. Very hostile gangs have been taking over the area, shooting, robbing, and kidnapping…with no regard for human life.

We were supposed to send our food truck there three days ago to take food but it was much too dangerous. Today we were bringing more food; we just received word last evening that the children are completely out of food. We are emotionally drained this morning thinking about the children being hungry who cannot eat today. 

We are working on a plan waiting to hear back. Please pray for Haiti, especially its children.
