boots on the ground III

The latest email from Lee Warren, our Stop Hunger Now staff person on the ground in Haiti. Please keep her and the entire team in prayer.

Dear Family and Friends,
 
   Today was exhausting, especially for the dental team and physicians, but we are all rather weary.  Once again, the day starts and ends with a rough 1.5 hr. Drive. The clinic was overwhelmed with emergency patients that had arrived from Port-au-Prince. We saw such severe wounds as well as severe malnutrition. Today I took my suitcase of Stop Hunger Now meals that the members of South Hill Presbyterian Church had packaged and the doctors were so happy to give it out to the most severe cases. I’ll be so happy to share the pictures with those who get up once a month and package food at the church.
  
 
   Love to all.  As we say in the south, this body is “rode hard and hung up wet.”  But it’s a very, very good kind of tired.
