This morning as another earthquake (6.1) was shaking the ground in Haiti, a medical team was taking off from the San Antonio airport headed to Port-au-Prince. The group departed at 8:00 a.m. central time, just a short time after the quake in Haiti.
Being there to help the group re-box and bag meds, trying to stuff as much product into each bag that they could, was amazing!! One man, David Birdy had a truck full of medical supplies for the plane. After speaking on the radio and T.V. yesterday, he now has a storage room full of supplies. We had several boxes that our doctor donated, and several others had boxes to send down as well. They were trying to get as many antibiotics and bandaging supplies on the plane as possible. The 4 doctors, 2 nurses and Micah were loading onto the plane with backpacks full and holding more bandages and things in their laps. Every spot available was filled.
Standing as a group, we prayed for the Lord’s blessing and safety for the team, the plane and their time in Port-au-Prince. We pray that each Haitian they meet or work on see the love of Jesus Christ in these team members!!
