No word…

January 14, 2010

Mark here: I have not had any contact with anyone in Haiti for about 12 hours. It seems they lost their phones and internet connections. We are working hard on options to get her and Karis out, but we have no way to communicate these plans with her. If anyone gets in touch with her or any of our friends in Haiti pass on this info:

– Kristen’s flight on American Airlines has been cancelled. The 1st AA option for her is on the 21st, she has a confirmed seat.
– She’s book on a Spirit Airlines flight on Sunday the 17th at 2:55.
– If she can get to the Airport tomorrow before 4pm, there is a cargo supply missionary flight that she can take… “MFI Missionary Flights”. They have her info and are expecting her.

I’m very concerned and because we have no communication… at this point it may be best if she goes to the US Embassy.

I haven’t mentioned anything to Jafta or India and plan on holding off for while, so if you see me wiiht the kids please respect that. The problem is, they know something’s up and are bouncing off the walls.

    Mark, you don't know me… but I have read here for a while. Please know that I'm praying for her and ALL the kiddos- and you. I have no doubt that her presence is an incredible blessing to Tara right now, but I know that she needs to get home ASAP and I'm praying for that!! Also praying for you as you wait…and wonder…and pray… and feel like you should be doing so much more, but can't.

    I've been reading your family's blog for a while and have never posted. We're praying for all of you.

    Mark – Prayers sent from Boston…
    Hoping that Kristen & Karis can get home soon; that Keanan remains safe; and that you, Jafta, and India stay strong.
    Godspeed, Cathy

    My family is praying for the peace of God to reast on your family during this uncertain time. I know where my mind can go when my husband is late getting home and not picking up my call. It is at least 1,000 fold for you.
