Hurricane Ike has caused wide spread devastation here in our village due to flooding. Hundreds have lost their homes and everything they own. Fortunately the orphanage was not effected other than loss of electricity for 4 days although we did evacuate for a little of 24 hours as the flooding came within 20 feet of the orphanage on two sides.
Our neighbors on the side toward the river have all been effected and really need your prayers. We are spending every minute we can helping them clean out the piles of mud (6 to 12 inches deep) from their little shacks so they can move back in. Please pray for the people of Haiti as the flood damage is nationwide here.
