A container and a 26' International truck should be making their way to the port at Port au Prince, Haiti today. Inside each are supplies to begin equipping a two story bungalow in Carrefour as a disaster response base camp. Dick Griffith of Chattanooga Valley Presbytery and David Short of Ohio Valley Presbytery arrived in Miami Tuesday and began making purchases based upon a take-off list for the items needed to rehab the Carrefour facility. Wiring, plumbing, tables, chairs, fixtures, tools, and a generator were purchased. Curt Moore, the MNA Gulf Coast rep. drove beds, mattresses, and other supplies from Lagniappe Church in Bay St. Louis, MS. Working with El Shaddai Ministries they brought all supplies to a port in Miami which shipped out Friday. David and Dick will be arriving in Carrefour the first week in March to begin setting up the base camp and meeting teams due to arrive March 6. Please pray that all supplies make it to their destination and that Dick, David and others will get our facility up and running in order to multiply our relief efforts in Carrefour and beyond.
