Hi all,
Please be in prayer for a friend, Elias, and his family. Elias lives in Harrisburg and has been very important in helping us with the kids who've come from Haiti for heart surgery. He has been instrumental with translating and helping the kids to feel comfortable. I just got off the phone with him. He has several siblings still living in Haiti and he has not heard from them yet. Of those family members he has talked to, their houses were destroyed and they had to stay at a school last night with a bunch of other people.
Elias is going to be contacting state representatives to see if he can be helpful as a translator in Haiti. If you have suggestions on who he might talk to to see about joining a relief effort from the state, please let me know.
We have gotten the phones to ring for Anderson and Dany Fevrier, but no answer yet.
College students from Messiah College, about 1/2 hour from Hershey, PA (and my alma mater) are organizing a prayer vigil tonight on behalf of Haiti.
Our local 27News is going to use some of Steve Miller's Port Au Prince shots durning their 11 o'clock program tonight. Thank you Steve for your gift.
To all who are praying, writing, who have passed along thoughtful words (and poems)...our sincerest thanks.
Please pray that the phones would begin to ring, and that people would begin to answer.
Ben
