We are not worried for ourselves, but for our friends, neighbours, colleagues, seminary staff & students. Many of whom live in houses built with mud and sticks with a tin roof, or a small 2 room block house. These kind of houses will not withstand a category 5 storm.
Everytime we have a heavy rainfall there is flooding in town. Along with the flooding comes mudslides and an increase in cholera and malaria. So you can imagine how much damage will come with this storm which is expected to dump 10 inches of rain along with 100mph + winds.
Please pray with us for the path to change. For protection for the people of Haiti and the other islands which are affected. We are praying to God to calm the storm as we know he can do.
We will keep you updated as we can, but it is likely we will lose internet as the storm comes.
Thank you for your prayers.
