DIAKONOS-KTFN PRIORITIES

Dear Friends:

Sad to report that we have seen many more great tragedies during the last few months. Our Godchildren have very little rice left and are living in deplorable conditions. The rains are flooding the tent and entire yard. The boys help by being a bucket brigade but they get little sleep soaking wet.

Priority list:

#1 priority is Security. With looting………..

Praise God for the generosity of Mission Love Seeds. They are helping us rebuild our walls and gates to provide the security and protection for our children. They are doing wonderful work for Gods children in Haiti and in the Philippines, MLS is a great organization whose group of people have HUGE hearts.

2nd priority to get beds for the children. Due to the recent earthquake in Haiti, the orphanage building is deemed unsafe which has forced our children to sleep outside indefinitely on cement bricks in a tent provided by UNICEF.  The conditions in which these children are sleeping are deplorable and yet this is all they have until the house can be rebuilt to safely house them. Humanitarian photographer Earl Baumgardner is working on getting sleeping cots for our children to have adequate bedding.

3rd Priority Water. Water is the most important thing to the survival of a human being.  Our bodies are comprised of 55% to 78% water depending on body size (according to Wikipedia Encyclopedia) …….

We have to buy water daily. It is costing us over $250 per month for water. And that’s not buying drinking water. Who would want water off a truck anyway?

5th Priority Food. According to studies, chronic hunger weakens bones and muscles; increases risk of illness; makes existing health problems worse and contributes to depression and lack of energy. Food prices have tripled in Haiti since the earthquake.



When Anderson came into the home, he was initially very weak and suffered from malnutrition, but his condition has greatly stabilized after adequate nutrition and proper care. He is slowly opening up to laugh and play with his caregivers and the other orphans. Miracles do happen every day.
