We have been unable to purchase any additional food and goods for distribution in the Port-au-Prince area. We checked into the possibility of driving our large Mack dump truck over to the Dominican Republic to try to purchase food, but that ended up being too expensive and too risky. We are now concentrating all our relief effort on shipping containers to our people on the ground just outside Port-au-Prince. We have one container with 275,000 Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) meals along with other items from Fort Myers and Missouri on the ship heading to Haiti. It left on Monday (2/1). We also picked up a second container of 275,000 meals early this week from the FMSC warehouse in Minneapolis. When it arrives in West Palm Beach we can add more goods and send it to the shipper in Miami. A third container with 43,200 pounds of rice (864 50 pound bags) has been ordered and will ship via rail to Miami from the Midwest early next week.

We have also ordered an empty container on wheels to be delivered to Palm Beach Baptist Church in Lake Worth, Florida where we will open a Haiti Relief drop-off center. If anyone has goods they wish to ship to Haiti let us know so we can get them in this container. Also, if anyone can help man this drop-off site (6201 S. Military Trail, Lake Worth) please contact us ASAP. We will only accept the following items:

Tents, tarps, ropes, working generators, working motorcycles or scooters, gas cans, shovels, buckets, Crocs, jackknives, garbage can liners, flashlights, batteries, matches, pots & pans, large spoons, silverware, towels, blankets, sheets, bottled water, canned food with pull tabs, rice, beans, peanut butter, jelly, powdered baby formula, cloth diapers, plastic pants, baby wipes, gauze, Neosporin/Bacitracin, Peroxide, Alcohol (for medical uses), Kotex, bar soap, tooth brushes, tooth paste, band aids

We have completed the planning and designing of a Orphanage Village to be built on our 600 acres of land in the Northwest. This will help take care of some of the estimated 100,000 orphaned children in a safe country environment. This concept has been recommended to us by other missionaries who have operated orphanages in Haiti. It allows each child to be raised in an safe Christian home while learning to live and provide for themselves in the nation where they were born. If you would like to know more about this concept for a Haitian orphanage village or help us build and operate it, please contact us.
