Tim Enloe via Facebook – The team in Haiti has been working 17-30 hrs. More wounded keep coming. The RN’s patient ratio is 47 to 1. Many are calling on the name of Jesus to be saved!
The constant delivery of trucks and ambulances full of seriously wounded continued today. I had the chance to pray with many of our Haitian brothers and sisters. This disaster will most likely claim more lives than the Indian Ocean Tsunami, but will leave a different legacy: tens of thousands of amputees as well.

Rochelle Enloe via Facebook – Hope International team is now “tenting” next to the special ops soldiers at the Haiti airport. Tim, Ken and Kurt went outside their compound wall last night and worshipped and prayed with refugees..sitting in street with rubble all around singing “give thanks” in creole. Fear of a new earthquake they are predicting has caused outstation hospitals to close and move to their location. Thanks for continued prayers!

1:12pm via FaceBook – Set up a water purification system today. We have made arrangements to relocate to the UN supply depot @ the Haiti airport. We will camp there with several other nations and our medical people will work seeing patients in the onsite hospital. Part of our team is going back to pack up our supplies, the rest stayed back to put up the tents.

Hi All,
The trip from Santa Domingo was pretty grueling. The truck fumes and dust were obnoxious at times. We waited at the border for an hour and a half dealing with some cultural issues, but in the end it was to our advantage because the delay allowed us to have the UN escort. That single delay saved us hours when we got to Port Au Prince. The church that we are with lost 20 kids and an Associate pastor in the quake. All total they lost 3 other church members in the quake. For a church of several thousand, that was grace. A local church of God was having a funeral and 4000 of their people died during the quake.
Today, we are staging the doctors and then deciding which group to work with. Tim and I are doing logistics and then maybe building a security wall back around the compound.
Thanks for praying
Pastor Ken

9:40pm by Ken Cramer via Facebook: We made it to the missions compound manned by the Canadian AG. we unloaded the trucks, had a meal and unpacked for the most part by flashlight. Port au Prince was a traffic nightmare. if it hadn’t been for UN escorts with sirens, we would still be sitting in traffic! Good night for now. We hit the ground running in the am.
Early morning, from a team member’s blog: “We have two convoy vehicles which have handled all of the gear and supplies and the team of 20 (our anesthesiologist could not make it), and we are driving through the night to reach the Haitian border at Jimeni. There we will be joined by the Dominican Republic’s army escort into the Haitian back-country to meet up with the US Army’s 82nd Airborne Division out of Fort Bragg.”

The team is en route now, expected to land in the Dominican Republic tonight and then drive across the border to Haiti. Pastor Ken is traveling with Hope International Ministries. Here is the latest video update from Kurt Holthus, of Hope International Ministries:

Lighthouse Worship Center and the Assemblies of God are a part of the massive relief effort now underway after the earthquake in Haiti. AG’s Convoy of Hope warehouse in Haiti was restocked right before the earthquake struck, and the facility is operational and providing food for thousands of victims. You can read more about the warehouse story on the AG web site.
Pastor Ken Cramer and Rev. Tim Enloe will travel to Haiti Tuesday, along with a team of 20 doctors and water purification equipment. They are working through Hope International Ministries. This mission will require around $56,000 for the needed medicines and supplies. A special offering this weekend will help to support aid efforts through Assembly of God ministries in Haiti.
You can join the effort by:
- Prayer – the National Prayer Center has posted a Prayer Guide for Haiti.
- Donations are needed for supplies and transport.
- There is still a strong need for high-level health professionals – doctors, nurse practitioners, physician’s assistants and nurses – to join the AG HealthCare Ministries deployment teams. For more information, contact Christy Wright at HealthCare Ministries, 417-866-6311 or e-mail logistics@healthcareministries.org. In addition, applications are available here.
