This morning Bishop Roller and others from the relief team traveled to Port-au-Prince to deliver supplies and meet with church leaders. They met at International Child Care Ministries School 500 where hundred of survivors are huddled in a makeshift relief shelter. For them the trip, meant a lifeline of clean-safe water, food and fuel.
Short tour through the city of Port Au Prince stops at United Nations search and rescue locations and a shelter at an International Child Care School where medical supplies, water filtration equipment and other much needed resources were delivered.
4:00pm Andy has made it to Port-au-Prince and the Free Methodist Church and building in that area. These are pictures of Brazilian rescue crews working to clear debris and looking for survivors in that area.
We join with the whole world in grieving this tragic earthquake in Haiti. Our hearts and minds cannot imagine the level of devastation, and we fear the news of the next few days will compound our grief.
