Hurricane Tomas Has Passed

Just want to update everyone on how Art has fared... I talked with him on Skype this evening and he emailed me the following: 
     "It's about 5:30pm in Haiti and we thank the Lord for His protection.  The southern tip and the northern tip were hit hard with trees down and flooding.  Here near Port au Prince our intermittent moderate to heavy winds began last night and now we have mild winds.  The intermittent light to moderate rains began last night and currently we have sprinkles.  The river near Port is very high and rising which is an indication that the mountains received some heavy rains. Tomas is supposed to move off the north coast later tonight and there are trailing bands that will have varying degrees of wind and rain through tomorrow. Overall, we faired well given the outlook at the beginning of the week.  Thank you, Lord Jesus."
     Yes, "Thank you, Jesus"!! And, THANK YOU-- EVERYONE-- for praying and for your words of encouragement. We've been blessed by your outpouring of care and concern AND we've definitely felt the impact of your prayers!
