Ministry Strategy

Our teams left for Haiti this morning at 4am. They hit the ground running and are beginning to assess the situation, further develop ministry partnerships, and respond to the immediate needs, such as food and water. By the end of this mission, we’ll have more information on what future teams will look like and how soon we can mobilize more people to go and serve. Here is a video taken this morning from Seth Barnes, explaining our overall strategy and plan (follow the link to watch it):

Publicity

God’s heart is broken for Haiti and he is activating people all over the world to help. Here are a couple stories on how the Lord is working: Ten-year old Brittany has watched as World Race Alum staying in her home have prayed and mobilized for Haiti over the last week. And last night she heard a story of a two-year old Haitian leaving a Dominican hospital wearing bandages dripping with blood and a dry IV bag because her mothere need to return to Port-Au-Prince to find her other children.

Team Update

We just received this update from team one. Team one is in Jimani (border town DR/Haiti). All are safe and healthy. This morning they arrived in Jimani not knowing what to expect. Last week our DR staff member had made contact with a pastor in Port-au-Prince who needed medical supplies and food. Since then they’ve been unable to contact him due to communication lines being down, they didn’t know what to do so they prayed. The team met up with him in Jimani and were praying and discussing options when he jumped from the car saying, “There is the pastor right...

Team Update

I just got off the phone with Sam and Marcia Borg. They made it down to the Dominican Republic fine, but they had some problems with the rental van. However, because Sam lives in the DR as a missionary during they summer, they were easily able to find other transport to rent. This delayed them, but are en route to Jimani now. Marcia said almost the whole plane was filled with Red Cross and World Vision and other aid workers! Please pray for them as they connect with the missionary there.

General Posts

Pure and faultless religion is to look after orphans and widows in their distress. (James 1:26) Rejoice with those who rejoice, mourn with those who mourn. (Romans 12:15) The World Race and Adventures In Missions, in the past, have both worked in Haiti and the Dominican Republic (D.R.) and AIM has full time missionaries based in the D.R. So, when we heard of the earthquake in Haiti our hearts and spirits cried out to respond. What do we do to help? Is it safe to go? What are their real needs? The only way to answer any of those questions is to send people...

Haiti Quake Turns Thousands of Children into Orphans

This 5-month-old patient at the field hospital has a number rather than a name. No one even knows who dropped the barely-conscious child at the makeshift medical center after he was pulled from the debris of a collapsed building four days after last week’s catastrophic quake. Now recovering, doctors have a difficult decision ahead: “What will we do with him when we are finished?” said Dr. Assa Amit of the hospital’s pediatric emergency department. No one knows who the boy’s family is, or whether any of his relatives are alive. (Read the full...
