Like an evil spirit, starvation and death stalks Haiti. Although we do not know all the details of hunger, we are receiving news that up in the mountains of Thoma, a young boy has died of starvation.
It is hard to know sometimes which area is in need of food the most because gangs block the roads, and communication in Haiti is difficult, especially in the mountains. We just received word about the plight of starvation in this area and already plans are being made to take food to 100 families in Thoma today! PTL! And, we just received word that Farmer John is adding meat with each box of food!
Thanks to you, our partners, tomorrow morning in Fond Parisien we will be giving 500 hungry families sacks of food containing rice, beans, cooking oil, cornmeal, sugar, spices, spaghetti, and noodles… enough for two weeks!!! (These families are from Ganthier, who have all lost their homes to the gangs!)
Our Haitian sons from our orphanage, Dieuferly, George, Mikael, and our other Haitian sons, all have a burden to feed the poor. We are so proud of them and we are so proud of you… our partners!
