As Tropical Storm Tomas approaches Haiti (predicted to be a category 1 Hurricane by the time it hits later this week: http://wxug.us/5adb) all the staff and children at HCH have evacuated today from their temporary shelter at the orphanage compound to the safety of a local church (concrete building) where they will be safe from the high winds and flooding that the hurricane could bring.
We are very thankful that they have somewhere that is able to provide them with adequate shelter from the storm and for the staff and volunteers who have put a great deal of effort into this evacuation! But at the same time our heart aches for our boys as they endure calamity upon calamity without their mom and dad to be the ones to keep them safe.
32 kids....one church basement...
