Today Extreme Response President Jerry Carnill met with representatives from Lemuel (ER partner project in Haiti) to discuss immediate and future relief needs. The Lemuel building in Port-au-Prince was damaged, but not destroyed. They still have not received word on the status of their people in the capital. Extreme Response is collecting funds (see donate button below) to partner with Lemuel in a relief effort. These funds will be used as Lemuel begins to assist their “neighbors” after the current initial recovery mission begins to subside and long-term assistance is ready to begin.

Extreme Response is also sending a representative to Haiti to help with the relief efforts there. Jean David is a Haitian that is currently living in Ecuador. Jean David is scheduled to go with ER partner HCJB Global to help with translation and logistics for a medical team that is currently trying to get into Port-au-Prince. Today he was also asked to assist the Ecuadorian military in transporting 50,000 rations of food and water. Because of the chaos at the Port-au-Prince airport, the HCJB medical team is waiting in Miami and the Ecuadorian military plane is still in Quito. Jean David is scheduled to leave Quito on an Air France flight Friday afternoon. We will keep you informed as new information comes in.

Today’s update from Jenny at the House of Hope orphanage in Haiti says…
One of our kids, Carl, wasn’t at school (in Port-au-Prince) day before yesterday as he had finished his exams and had a few days off (he was supposed to come up here today on the bus, go figure). He said his school was ripped in two, and all the students who were there were buried underneath and they’ve not been able to get any out. It was such a God thing that he was at the Boucher house when the earthquake happened, because he had to rush in to get their middle boy out. He got hit on the shoulder, but saved the boy’s life!……One piece of good news we got today was that someone has spoken with Miss Marie Ange. She was our last young adult in PAP that we hadn’t heard from. So all of our kids who live there are alive and accounted for..

Please give toward to the ongoing relief efforts in Haiti
