Suffering doesn't cease with a turned head

I had a speaking engagement just a few hours ago. I had told these people, at an earlier date, that I would let them view our two DVDs about Haiti that we use in raising our support. On the one DVD, there are scenes showing the children of Haiti and the desperate condition that they're in. As the DVD played, 2 women started to cry and turned their heads and said that they just couldn't bare to watch these children in their suffering.

Later, as I talked with the women, I explained how chidren from around the world suffer every day but most of the people of America are oblivious to such despair and hopelessness. I wish that I could take everyone who might read this to Haiti with Roberta and myself for just one day. If you could see, hear, smell or taste what we deal with as missionaries in this nation of poor and starving humanity then we'd have no more problems raising our support. But we can't do that. Words are all that we have to convey our message to you. There will be children and adults die today, while you're reading this. These are people that we might have been able to save but we're not there. Our support is coming in but with your help, we'll be there sooner. Our plans are to move to Haiti by the 1st or 2nd week of January, 2007. We need your support today.

If you would like to take part in supporting us and our work in Haiti, then please feel free to contact us via email at rrhaiti at aol dot com and we'll be happy to put you on our monthly mailing list. You may also use the donation button located on this blog and make a direct contribution.

Remember, even when we turn our heads and refuse to watch, the children are still suffering.

Please Help!

IF NOT YOU....THEN WHO???
