We have been anxiously waiting any bit of news that was coming from the field for the last day and a half and we appreciate your prayers and supportive messages. This evening brings very disheartening and devastating news from one of our own community members Serge Fritz Jean, our agricultural technician in Fond Verrette. Serge has lost his wife and infant who were in a house in Croix-des-Bouquets. Guy (our program director in Haiti) and all our staff ask for continued prayer for our Haitian staff, their families, and specifically Serge in his time of grieving.
Serge, our heartfelt prayers and arms reach out to you and the rest of your family.

Please know that the congregation of St. Clement's in St. Paul, Minnesota, keeps you deeply in our prayers. Please be safe, finding comfort and hope in so many prayers coming to you from so many places.
