Grandma's Tent City

Behind every great man is... his mother. In this case we're talking about Pastor Rigaud Antoine's mother. For those of you who are unaware, Pastor Rigaud is the driving force behind the CJRA school and Kingdom Kids orphanage. His mother is an amazing presence at any time, but she has truly stepped up in this disaster.

She and Pastor Rigaud's sister live next to the church and school. Following the earthquake, they created a tent city in front of their homes to accommodate about 1,000 homeless neighbors. People with nowhere else to go are sleeping there and holding on to what little they have left.

Meanwhile, our team is searching for additional sources of food for the people living there.
