Dear friends;
First, let me thank all of you for your prayers, your letters, and your wishes to help out in any way. We really appreciate it.
We just received word that JeanJean's family is OK. Praise the Lord! We don't know anything about whether their buildings are stable or whether they can get food and water but we are so thankful that they are alive. There are at least 4 confirmed deaths of sons and daughters of our church friends that perished in collapsed buildings. Every time I think of my nephew buried in his school building overnight, I get shaky. Thank you, Lord, for saving him. JeanJean is breaking the news to the families of the deceased as I write this. Every single one of those boys was here for the Christmas holidays one week ago.
Many of you have asked us what you can do to help with this disaster. We do feel a great burden to help the families in our community that have lost loved ones or houses in Port. And, we do have several church contacts in Port-au-Prince. We will be praying and searching how best to help those who have lost so much.
Please, please continue your prayers. There is nothing better than that! I felt another aftershock an hour ago. If we felt it over here, I don't know how intense it is near the epicenter. There are a lot of unstable buildings that could still collapse.
God bless all of you for your support and love.
Kristie and JeanJean Mompremier
