URGENT PRAYER REQUEST
Hello,
We urgently need your prayers for tomorrow morning, Wednesday.
For a week the citizens of Arcahaie, Cabaret and Bercy have been fighting off the gangs, there has been killing, rapes, burning buildings and utter destruction. The gangs have finally taken over. Friends of ours had an orphanage in Bercy, which is about two hours from our main village in Marose. Their orphanage was looted and destroyed by the gangs taking over. Our friend and seven of his nannys and cooks, along with 39 children fled to the mountains. Soon as he could, our friend called Pastor Nathan for help. They are hiding in a safe spot, but have nothing left. We offered to take them into our Children's Village. The problem is the few main roads are not safe to travel on. So, we have been working with them to come up with a solution.
Praise God! There is now a helicopter from the Kenyan UN troops that will be trying to fly into the mountains where they are located and rescue them. This is supposed to take place tomorrow morning, Wednesday. Nathan knows another orphanage about 20 minutes from us that only has a few children left in it, so they will be flown there tomorrow morning, if all goes as planned. Nathan will be waiting for them on this end. We will be helping to provide food, clothing and bedding.
Please be praying for the helicopter to be able to find them and safely transport all of them. Pray for peace and comfort for the children, helpers and our friend, they have experienced a lot of trauma.
Thank you for faithfully praying. We appreciate it more than you know.
Blessings, Chris
