Coming and Going

There is now a flow of people working with Manna in the Dominican Republic and Haiti. We've been grateful for the volunteers who have helped coordinate the purchasing of supplies in the Dominican Republic and transporting them to the border as well as for those on the Haiti side who are making sure they make it from the border to Port au Prince. If you've ever traveled the roads in a third world or developing country you know those are not easy jobs. God has blessed the Manna team with some beautiful hearts to serve in this area.
There is also a Manna team now in Port au Prince helping Roberta with contruction, repairs, food distribution, and baisc medical care as needed. Brian has been in Port au Prince since the week of the earthquake and is continuing his work there. He said many times last week, "The more I think about the name 'Manna,' the more I like it. God gives us just what we need for today but if we try to gather too much, it rots. And tomorrow, God will meet our needs again."
Brad was home for 3 days and is now back in Haiti. He is driving a truck with supplies for Roberta from Santo Domingo to Port au Prince, along with some other volunteers including David Woodside, Mark Gibson and others (I'm sorry I don't have all the names).

NOTE: For those of you who have been part of the ministry of the school in Lagosette, you may remember Anne. She is a very special young lady who, because of generous gifts, had been able to continue her schooling in Port au Prince. Her heart is to become a doctor and return to Lagosette to serve there. We have heard that she is safe but lost all her belongings in Port. She wants to continue her education and we are looking into possibilities for that. We praise God that she is alright and is now with her family in Lagosette and Cap Haitian!!
