We received word from Pierre this morning that the situation in the orphanage is becoming dire. We would like to ask EVERYONE that receives this to use this information to get on your knees before our Lord and ask Him to provide.
We have one nanny that is deceased and the orphanage needs her body to be removed.
The orphanage has no drinkable water.
In addition they need:
- formula for babies
- medicines
- IV fluids (one child is currently on an IV)
- charcoal to cook
- diesel
- cash to buy supplies if they find them. They are running out of cash and there are no banks open to get cash, so it needs to be delivered by someone already on the ground or by helicopter.
There are helicopters flying over the orphanage and they have made a sign on the roof that says they are an orphanage and need help.
The staff is also working to get together all the paperwork for each child that has an adoptive family in a way that it can be attached to their body if there is an opportunity to evacuate.
For His Glory is doing everything we can on this end to contact people who may be able to help. Please pray. Currently, that is the best thing you can do to help. Kim is doing everything she can, and respectfully requests that adoptive families do not call her at this time. We realize this is a very difficult time, however she needs her phone and time available to do everything she can to make contacts to try to help the children and staff at the orphanage. We will give you any updates we have as soon as they are available.
Trusting in Him,
For His Glory

Our hope is that your little ones will soon be in your arms! My heart was so full looking at the pictures on the FHG website. Praying for you both and for the children.
Love, Annette
Thinking of you all and praying for those beautiful babies to be safe!
Just so you know, I am praying for you and your children. May God bless you and keep them safe.
It broke my heart to see your story on the news tonight. It makes all of our so called "problems" and "worries" so minimal and ridiculous. After watching your story, my husband and I are going to look into adoption of a child from Haiti. I just feel as if we can't do enough. Your family, along with the people from Haiti, are in our constant prayers and thoughts.

Jock & Lisa - I am praying that little Elijah and Josephine remain safe in Haiti until they are safe at home in your arms. God bless you and your children!
