Update from Haiti

Hey Friends,
First of all I just want to say thank you so much for your prayers. I have gotten so many emails from you guys and it so blesses my heart! I wanted to give you another update, so much is happening day-to-day that I want to share as much with you daily as possible so that I don't leave anything out.
Yesterday we spent all day traveling from the Domincan Republic to Haiti. We left the DR base at 3 am and rode on a bus for 5 hours to the border. God blessed us tremendously at the boarder and we happened to be there at the same time that a World Vision caravan was passing through. So they allowed us to go straight in. We had a police escort the whole way into Port au Prince because of the dangers. In the small towns before the Port we began to see the destruction of buildings. But when we entered Port au Prince words cannot describe the true intensity of the situation. Huge buildings were crushed, cars were smashed to street level, rubble covered the streets, huge refugee camps were set up in the middle of the city for the homeless and injured, and there were signs painted on demolished homes that said things like "Many dead, please help." We were told that we didn't even drive through the bad part of town, so it is beyond my comprehension that things could be even worse. As I sat in the van I wept, it was all I could manage to do because of the horrific scenes around us. My heart was yearning in a desperate way to share the hope and love of Jesus with these completely broken people. We were able to capture some of it on video and camera and so as soon as I get back to the States I will post those so that you can see a small part of the devastation.
After driving through Port au Prince we drove another hour and a half to a town called St. Marc. St Marc was relatively untouched by the earthquake and so we headed to the large YWAM base that they have here. Because of their large facility they are able to house about 50 victims. Due to the Port being so unsafe many are fleeing up here to find food and shelter. Today we had two very important jobs, one of which was to gut and sanitize a building that was given to the base here, so that they can use it as a hospital. Once this is done they will transport the 50 victims there and be able to take even more. The other task was to go around to the victims and care for their wounds and pray for them. I spent the day washing out severe abrasions, burns, and head wounds, also healping wrap broken bones. Most of the victims here are women and children. These are some of the bravest people I have come across because we were treating them with no painkillers due to the lack of supplies. Jesus was so present though in the midst of the pain and we were able to speak healing and restoration over these broken people.
We will be doing these same types of things over the next two days and on Friday will make the long journey back to the Dominican so that we can fly home on Saturday. We have already been talking about bringing a team back in a few weeks and so please be praying that God continues to provide the finances and resources for this.
Also please pray for our continued safety, health, and strength. We are working long and hard days and our bodies are tired but God has given us incredible grace and we are able to push through. Also malaria, H1N1, and other diseases are very prevelant due to all of the injuries these people have suffered so please pray for protection over our bodies. I just wanted to end and say that God is good, admist all the choas, brokeness, and hurt, He is still good. He loves these people so much and has such a desire to see this Nation be restored under His name. Please pray that that more of His presence would come and dwell in this place, that these people would see supernatural healing and provision come to them, and that ultimately His name would be glorified. You guys are awesome prayer warriors. Thank you so incredibly much!
God Bless, Jacque
