Once again these are folks we trust and have a wonderful medical mission here in Haiti. Also there is an organization named Lifeline Christian Mission in Grand Goave that needs help. There website is www.lifeline.org, if you want more information. And finally we are connected with some friends in Port-au-Prince involved in an organization called MCC. They do a lot of different things in Port-au-Prince, and will most assuredly need your help and donations. Many blessings to you all!
This is a tragedy that no human being should have to endure, but sadly it is a reality in our world. I just can’t believe I personally have family that are in the midst of this devastation. Praying every hour of the day for your safety and for others as well.
Kyle and Lorraine,
We have been bugging CGCC regards to your safety and we learn you are well.
We will be donating to the Missions of Love to aide the Haitians in this horrendous time.
We continue to pray for you and your mission there even though we got out of contact when we moved up north. We are now in Payson and you can see the email address has changed. We pray for your goals and your safety and after reading the November and December news, your health.
We are so glad your Mom and friend got to come to see you.
We appreciate all you are doing in spreading God’s word.
Bless you, Dave and Sue Osborne
