By this time it’s no surprise that Haiti was hit with a 7.0 magnitude earthquake two nights ago, one of the worst earthquakes that the country has experienced in decades. Many people have been asking us how they can help. Thankfully, Adventures missionaries Miguel and Kristina de Santiago are on the field in the Dominican Republic right now and are headed to Haiti as soon as possible to begin providing some much needed relief and help to the country. Here is the latest:
Thank you to everyone who has been praying and sharing concern for our neighbors in Haiti. As we speak we are coordinating with other NGO’s here in San Juan to mount an emergency response to those affected by the earthquake that occurred yesterday evening. Four hours Southwest from our home of San Juan lays the Dominican city of Jimani which is only about 40 miles east from the hardest hit area of Haiti. Our hope is to be able to travel to Jimani early tomorrow morning, bringing supplies with us.
