As some of you may know, my wife and I are heavily involved in mission work in Haiti. So much so that we just started our own non-profit business to allow us to do more. Our primary focus to this point is to support an orphanage and school that was founded and being run by my wife's Haitian brother.

We got disturbing news yesterday that Yvon (orphanage director) and another friend were shot and killed after leaving a bank. They were at the bank to get donations thatwehadjustwired to them for teacher's salaries and food for the orphanage.

He leaves behind a wife, 2 grown kids and 33 orphanage kids that know him as Papa Yvon.

My wife and in laws will be heading to Port au Prince in the next day or two. I will go down after arrangements are made.

Please pray for comfort and understanding, especially for the orphanage kids. Also pay for safety in our travels. Pray for direction on how to proceed with the orphanage and school leadership.

Thanks to you all.

That's terrible.

I will pray to the God who is sovereign over all things for your family, the orphanage, and for guidance moving forward.

Sad to hear of this. This is a sad world we live in and all we can do is come together as Christians and pray for one another. Prayers for all involved!
