| All 26 Sponsored Children in Haiti Are Alive and Safe! Haiti Update January 19, 2010 Children of Promise I was finally able to get through by phone to Haiti early this morning. I spoke with Isaac Adrien, the director of the Children of Promise program in Callebasse. He shared with me that all 26 children in Callebasse and the House of Blessings are alive and safe! We thank God for this wonderful news! Isaac reported that a few of their parents, who were living in Port-au-Prince at the time of the quake, died. (These parents’ children have been living in Callebasse with other relatives.) None of the parents or guardians in Callebasse were killed. When asked what the immediate needs of the children and their families are, Isaac replied, “Blankets, clothing, and food. Some have just the clothes on their backs. Some are sleeping on the ground because their homes were destroyed.” Isaac continued, “Phil Murphy arrived in Callebasse yesterday, and today he and I are going around to all of the children's homes to see exactly what the conditions of all the children are.” Isaac also reported that they are preparing cost approximations for rebuilding the children’s homes.
