A few photos I took at the beach property today. This is a least fifty miles from the epicenter where we are located at Carries. The section you are looking through to the ocean is where a 15 x 8 foot section of our wall crumbled and fell to the other side.
These are the enormous cracks left in the wharf which they will continue to drive cars onto to load on the boat to travel to the island of La Gonave. The beach was once full of sharp rocks but now is filled with the finest sand that even I can walk on. Our worry now, as you can see from this picture is the fear of all, next to another earthquake. Rain is on the horizon. It threatens to fall every day. When this rainy season begins it will be yet another disaster. People are still living in makeshift housing in the streets. We are still sleeping in our yard with a load of people who are too scared to return to their homes that have been fractured and cracked by the earthquake. Pray that tents and temporary housing can somehow be erected before the disastrous rains of the rainy season begin. We are beginning some with 2x4's and tin to start with. It is the quickest thing possible.
Pray that the rains would hold off. Pray for tents to arrive and be distributed by someone to the many in need in Port-au-Prince and the surrounding areas, including Carries.
Ashley, Kelsey and Shaina sat on the other side of this wall every day to have school. We praise God for his shelter, safety, protection and watch care over them each day and especially that day. You can see the crack in the blocks or the distinct separation of them from top to bottom.
There are so many things to be thankful for and so many things to continue praying about. Thankful for our safety and the preservation of our lives. Pray for continued safety. Pray for many to come to know the Lord as their Savior. Pray for them as they come, one by one, asking to be baptized into Christ and to make a new life with Him. Pray for us as we teach, as we lead, as we love, as we share and as we live an example of Christ's love before them. Pray for revival in the country of Haiti. God bless you as you continue to faithfully serve Him. Dee

We praise the Lord for your families safety Dee!
Everyone has obstacles in their lives but to truly understand what an obstacle was is the day I went to Haiti. Dee you and Wilckly go thru obstacles everyday and yet you call it ANOTHER DAY IN HAITI
this left the true meaning of obstacle in my heart. God has so much in store for BLESSING HEARTS INTERNATIONAL and I can honestly say that Charlie and I our so blessed that we are a part of it.
We pray for you and the country of Haiti everyday several times a day.
We love you all.
GOD BLESS
Charlie, Teresa & Miss Lonia
