I WAS ABLE TO TALK TO MY DAD

I was able just talk to my dad. He sounded emotionally spent. Ruthie is actually doing better than him. Ruthie said that the word with the Hatians is that nearly 1 million Haitians were killed. (obviously that cannot be confirmed for some time). He said that the stench was horrible. Ti Paul (their assistant/driver) took them to the port au prince at 3:30 this morning. He said that there was no traffic. He said that in Port Au Prince 90% of the building are gone.  Dieuppe (Ruthie's adopted son who is a pastor in Jacmel) told him that he needed to get out to regroup. He told Ruthie that it would be fine if she wanted to stay....she quickly told him she was coming with him.  This has really shaken my dad. As we can all only imagine.  They fear that Port Au Prince is going to go chaotic before too long. The Haitian people know only political unrest. I would encourage you  to please pray for the Haitians. Please also pray for Hantz Bernard with Bibles International. He is leaving on Wednesday with MFI (Missionary Flights International).  Pray for his safety as he hands out Scripture passages while he is there and surveys the immediate needs. He has personally lost much in this quake. He and his wife have much family there. We were able to get him a satellite phone to communicate.  Pray that God would use him while he is there. This is going to be an opportune time for the people of Haiti to hear the Gospel. --- Thanks again for praying. I will try to pass another message on tonight.
