Thank you to everyone. Thank you for the emails. Thank you for the prayers. Thank you for putting your love into action by supporting H2H financially too. We are already feeling the affects of your support. We were able to punch a hole in our depot and retrieve some food. We received 5 large bags of rice from another mission in town. Tomorrow I am going to Port-au-Prince to receive some food relief from another mission. H2H Canada is also working around the clock to organize containers to be sent as well as connecting us with help within the country. Thank you all for your work. I can not say thank you enough.
Please continue to pray for our strength. Pray too for our safety as we go to Port-au-Prince tomorrow. This will be my first time seeing the devastation first hand and their our obvious security risks.
Here are some pictures to share with you.
We were able to remove some pots & cooking utensils from the kitchen:

Such beautiful children these are. I'm am so grateful that each one is safe. I wish I could help more than my donation! Take care of yourself, and the children. Wishes from me in Canada that you will remain safe and that aid will reach you soon. samm at Ravelry
Rebecca, Thank you for writing. I found your blog through an email that Lisa from Haiti Arise sent out. I came to Haiti Arise in 2008 for the first time with one of the medical clinic groups. Haiti has been close to my heart ever since. My heart breaks for you guys, but I know that God has a bigger plan. I am praying for you guys... for strength, wisdom, food and water and safety and ultimately that many would come to Christ. Thank you for your sacrifice and for truly being His hands and feet right now. Much love in Him, Amber Wiens
Oh how I love these kids. I don't know if I've ever seen them without smiles. Big hugs! Thanks for the updates, Rebecca! The MEI community is responding in powerful ways...over $3000 just today! God is at work!
Praying intently along with your prayer all day today. You are a literal modern day hero there in Haiti, and God is using you in an amazing way. So good to see pictures of the children eating...Our God will supply all of our needs, and I know that He will continue to keep his promise to you. Thank you for your continued, faithful service to him.
Hello, I am in Vermont where it is snowing. I crochet and have been making comfort dolls for the orphans of the quake or any needy little child. You can see these on my blog
www.kingdomkrafts.blogspot.com. Can you tell me how I can get these dolls to you there? I am trying to spread the word about these (I know you need food more now)dolls. What do you think?

Rebecca, you will only know in Heaven how many are supporting you in prayer.
I have a friend in Haiti and don't know yet if has survived.
So much pain but the Lord is still in control.
Hi Rebecca, Word has been sent through a fellow RCMP to his brother working at the airport in PoP. They have forwarded my emails regarding your situation in Grand Goave to their Canadian Military contact in Haiti. Hopefully this helps in some way.
Love, Hugs & Prayers
Leisa & Francois
Rebecca,
I stumbled over Haiti Arise website a few weeks before Christmas 09. Then a friend emailed me your blog and the link to Heart2Heart. Now, I find out my mother, Iris Wall, Langley, BC is an old friend of your parents. My heart goes out to you and to the people of Haiti. I am praying for your
continued protection and that aid supplies will come to you soon. We will send money as that is all we can do.
Our love and prayers are with you, your husband and the children and community in Grand Goave and all of Haiti.
Elizabeth Wiebe,
