Irma Preparation

Today in addition to school and the workers working on the house we also continued to prepare for Hurricane Irma.
We remain in phone contact with John Pierre and Genner advising them about the storm and how to prepare our house and the campus at Fauche.

Due to Irma's direction the campus could be hit hard along with those on the northern coast of Haiti.

No word on our adoption paperwork, but thankfully we know that F will be well taken care of where he is at in northern Haiti.

We have forwarded contact information to our family as the plan is to take down the internet satellite dish tomorrow morning before the winds pick up which will mean we will not be able to update people by email, blog or Facebook.

For updates you can check 'Together We Can-Haiti' on Facebook. We will try to stay in contact with them by phone and they will let my folks know.

The masons who worked on the house the last three days will be heading down the mountain early tomorrow morning before the storm so that they can be with their families.

The house we are in has stone walls and two 1st story rooms with no windows that we can shelter in if needed.

The windows of the main house have been covered.

We have plans for everyone's safty, including the animals.

Please pray for protection from the storm and that adequate preparations are made.

Many people have inadequate shelter and their income from gardens and livestock is at risk.

Will update when we can. Thank you for the prayers.
