Today, which is Friday, March 26th, a small group of our team members went with a police officer from the US Embassy in a crowded car for a what was to be a brief tour of near town. The officer also operates an orphanage for 35 children. The tour became longer when we were stuck in traffic as people lined up to get US donated rice.. Big American flag on each and the folks struggled to take them home. We saw the Presidential Palace which was in ruins as was probably half the housing. Many different tent cities around the area and people walking and many street side vendors selling everything. The drivers here operate by the horn and push their way system and you hold your breath each time.
Prayers were answered when we received baby and adult diapers, which still are in great demand. Hospital still full and more coming from early morning till closed. Pray for the Doctors and nurses as they work 12 hours on and 12 hours off under tough conditions.
Please continue to pray for our team.
