URGENT PRAYER REQUEST
From Missionary Ron Brian:
Please pray for Haiti
Although Hurricane Tomas has been downgraded to a Tropical Storm, it is expected to regain strength in the next two days. The current models from the National Hurricane Center shows Tomas passing directly over Haiti as a Hurricane toward the end of the week.
We cannot express enough how devastating it would be to Haiti if Tomas progresses as predicted. The current path would have it passing directly over Port au Prince which continues to have thousands of displaced people living in tents. It would then continue to cross the country and would be passing over St. Marc--the area which is suffering from the Cholera epidemic. The rains, high winds, and massive flooding that would result from this storm could potentially take thousands of lives and destroy the little progress that has been made in recent months to rebuild from the earthquake.
Even if Tomas does not regain strength enough to be upgraded to a Hurricane, the flooding from even a Tropical Depression could be devastating if it takes the projected path.
PLEASE PRAY THAT TOMAS DOES NOT TAKE THE NORTHERN TURN THAT IS PROJECTED.
