Good news on Saturday!

Today had lots of positive activity. Here's a summary:

• The orphan that had been taken to the hospital for dehydration has been released and is well.
• Every night, our friends at the orphanage are making rice and whatever else is available. They feed anyone from the neighborhood who is in need.
• Our SFH team worked hard making connections and collecting supplies at the airport. In the end, they came away up with more medical supplies, diapers, water, blankets, food, and toiletries. A good haul!
  
• The team also went to a local hospital for some meds to treat conjunctivitis, which many of the children have contracted.
• Very exciting partnership news: World Vision is going to be using the CJRA school and the adjacent Bethlehem Baptist Church as a distribution point for food for the entire area. They will be distributing 5,000 boxes of food, each of which contains enough to feed someone for a month!
• Rigaud Antoine has been working with a Haitian judge all day to help facilitate more adoptions. (As we've said on our web site, you can contact SFH if you are interested in adopting a child. Write to info@servantsforhaiti.org and we'll send you a packet of information.)
  

This is all great news. We are very excited to see people going to great lengths to help our Haitian friends. We are thrilled and humbled to be part of such a great worldwide effort.

There is clearly a lot happening. Keep following this blog for further updates...
