The Partners With Haiti Board of Directors want to thank all of our donors for your faithful prayers and support during this most difficult time. We are working diligently to update everyone on what has been happening since the earthquake. As we receive news from Haiti we will share it with you.

This is what we know thus far:

• AFCA Village was not damaged. The church, school, and all other buildings are okay. The village has become a refuge for some 2,000 Haitians in the community who have lost their homes. With the help of an American they were able to feed them on Tuesday with no violence.
• Nazon Church also was not damaged. They have become a refuge for some 1,000 Haitians around that community.
• CEEH (Council of Evangelical Churches in Haiti) has also become a refuge with some 1,000 people around the community there.
• Bethesda Baptist Church (Pastor Martinez Jovin’s church) has also been a refuge for some 1,000 people in that community.

BETHANY PROJECT SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM We are doing everything possible to locate almost 1,200 children in our program. As we receive information from Haiti we will post it on “Bethany Project Updates” Please check this on a regular basis. The children will be listed according to their school code and name.

MISSION TRIPS All mission trips to Haiti are on hold until we are given the “green light” to go in. Our mission is to go help, not to make recovery and rescue more difficult with civilians coming in. Getting water and food to needed people is very difficult. If you are interested in joining a team and have specific skills, please contact Nancy Turner – 843-757-7940 or by email: nturner@partnerswithhaiti.org
