Haiti is currently devastated. Buildings are down everywhere we can look and hundreds around us are sleeping in the streets. We were upstairs about to leave to show the Jesus film when it hit. The entire house was shaking and the sound was like a train. We were all trying to hold onto something when I heard the words from inside to “get out now”!! We began to run down the stairs and the house was still shaking. When we got outside some of the kids were still in the house so we got the out quickly. We did a head count and one little girl had been hit by the falling wall and has a dislocated hip. We quickly began to run to all the neighbors on our street to make sure they were ok. After that we went to Bob Nunleys orphanage and the to John Hawthorns. Praise God that none of their children was hurt.
We are currently without an orphanage! We are sleeping outside and praying for God to send us help! We need the wisdom of the Lord. We cannot live in our house because the structure could fall at anytime. There are large cracks in all the walls. All the security walls around our house are broken down. The only thing still standing is the gate! We no God is going to provide us place very quick. We still don’t know about Pastor Jacks family so please pray for him and his family.
We don’t know what is ahead but we will need to build, purchase of rent something quickly. We have some ideas but need the Lord to lead us. So if you would like to help please visit our website www.reachhaiti.com or click here and donate quickly. The need is overwhelming around us.
Don’t let the devastation be your focus. Now is the time for Jesus and His Church to shine! God is in control of all things! Please be praying.

Mike, I’m praying for you and the children, and the country.
I pray that you be prepared for the coming days. Be strong, fear no evil as you walk through the valley of the shadow of death.
Also, I’m seeking God for direction, I’m willing to come there to help if it be His will.
