Devastating News out of Haiti

Let me start by saying Ben and Ephtonline are fine and safe..Praise the Lord!  However we received news today that the orphanage which our church built in Jeremie, Haiti has been struck by cholera!  There are approximately ten children hospitalized many which we held in our arms and two yourng boys lost their lives to the disease last night.  Flood waters have contaminated the "safe "drinking water and there is fear that many more may become sick.  Thanks to some generous sponsers Betsy may be taking part in an emergency medical relief team which is going over to Haiti the end of next week.  Please keep all the children in your prayers, the medical response teams, and the leaders who are trying to coordinate the relief.  Will keep blog updated as more info comes in!
