Video: New Missions team in Haiti with Melony McKaye
We just received this quick video update from the New Missions team in Haiti right now (including our very own Z88.3 midday personality, Melony McKaye). This was taken on today (1/13/10) and sent to show all the friends and family that are worried and praying for them that they are safe.
Travel Update
Dave Nowak from New Missions posted this on his Facebook page within the last 20 minutes...
"The New Missions team of 44 was safely evacuated from Haiti on Friday, arriving at a secure location in the Dominican Republic. Arrangements are being made to fly the team back to Orlando, with an anticipated arrival as early as tonight."
First Update from Haiti
Our very own Melony McKaye (from the Z88.3 Midday Show) has spent the last week in Haiti on her first mission trip. At 5:25 Wednesday morning, she was able to get a wi-fi signal to send the following update:
If you've not heard-we need prayer. A 7.3 earthquake hit us directly yesterday just before 5:00 p.m. As you can imagine such a major disaster in a 3rd, actually 5th, world country is challenging. God is GREAT & in control we are all together and safe. Pray for water, safety, a way home & these beautiful people who had nothing and now have less. It has continued to shake all night long but God's peace IS reigning!
We have no phone coverage & not sure when we'll have wifi again.
Please pray for David and my kids.
Miss & love you all!!!!
Mel
P.S. Please reassure MANY parents of The First Academy and First Baptist Oviedo groups that their kids are safe and well and amazing God trusting kids!!!
