Please Pray Like Crazy!

I have a HUGE prayer request. Below is the video of a friend who is in partnership with an orphanage in Haiti. These children are without water and without food and without medical help. I understand that there is a huge controversy about bringing orphans to the US, but THESE children were double orphans BEFORE the earthquake. Is it going to take them to start dying before something is done? Our friend is trying to bring these kids to a place where they can receive the help that they so desperately need. Please be praying that the Lord move the mountains that are keeping them there. We here in the US can not completely understand the MAGNITUDE of the problem there. It's not so easy to "just bring them water. just bring them food. just bring them the medical treatment". They need help. They need help NOW. And to get help now they need to be taken out of Haiti. One of the problems that Haiti had BEFORE the quake, and now it's becoming even worse, is child trafficking. By leaving these orphans there, they are vulnerable and at risk. So please  watch the video and join me in prayer!

I am praying and, if I can figure it out, will also post this video on my blog. May God's might and mercy be released on these precious children.

Oh Jenn, my heart is so heavy.

All we can do is pray really … and yet I wish I could do more … we did fill out some paperwork … C has always felt like we have another in C. America. He said to me the other night … "well I guess H. is considered Central America, right? Maybe I had the country wrong?!"

Lord, PLEASE have mercy on these precious gems in Haiti and strengthen Your adult children doing their very best to care for them in unimaginable and near impossible situations. In JESUS name, AMEN.
