update #5

I just talked to Joel, and we have a few new updates.

1) We have raised close to $10,000! That is amazing! Thank you so much to everybody who has donated to help these people in need. We would love to raise even more money. The next few weeks are going to hit the orphanage hard, and we want to help them supply food and supplies for those at Canaan and those in the city who are suffering.

2) Joel spent most of last night communicating with a few of his contacts and got in touch with a charter flight that is flying into Haiti. One of our contacts was able to connect with this effort and is presumably on his way down there right now. We do not know for sure that he made it, but we should know sometime soon. Before he left, we were able to wire a large part of your donations, and we are hoping to have the money in the hands of the people at the orphanage in the next day or two. Thank the Lord for this opportunity because it is one of the only ways that we were going to be able to get money to the orphanage immediately.

Thanks again for continuing to check the blog and spread the word. Please continue to tell anybody that you know because the need is going to escalate over the next few weeks and your financial support will drastically help the people of Haiti.
