First of all, how do you even pronounce that?!?!
Anyway, we are right in the middle of the hurricane. There is a lot of wind and rain. Some damage to the home, nothing horrible though. Please continue praying for our Haitian friends, employees, their families, and church people....actually all the Haitians. With Fay that just passed thru and now Hurricane Gustav dumping water on us, there is A LOT of flooding. Danny was able to get all the way thru the storm from Wahoo Bay Hotel, which is north of Port-au-prince, to Jacmel. However, he is stuck in downtown Jacmel. All roads are totally flooded and impassible. Something about a dump truck under water, so he's not trying. It is a praise report that he made it thru Port-au-Prince and the mountains. He said that several trees have fallen in the road, he just barely missed them. He is stuck in a hotel 1 mile or so from the house. As you can imagine, he is very annoyed to be so close.
Several church peeps have their homes under water. We believe that Mdm Emiliene's home lost it's roof and her house it might be a loss. We are not sure since she is here. For those that have been here on a missions trip, Mdm Emiliene is one of our house help. She makes that amazing Haitian meals that you love. Everyone is just waiting out and praying for their families. We ask the same of you.
Please also pray for our fellow missionary friends. Especially Tina (missionary that runs the school), Michelle and Larry (Hands and Feet Project), and Sandra and Nixon as they have had major problems with flooding and mud slides with the mountain right behind them in the past.
Thank you and I'll try to post after the storm.
