Christianity Today article: Haiti Earthquake Update #4

Written by Mark J. Wheeler, MBA, OC Vice President of Advancement

We continue to thank you for your generosity to our brothers and sisters in Haiti. To date, $85,248 has been given from individuals, churches, foundations, OC partner schools and non-partner schools. Praise the Lord for His provision!

Dr. Jean Dorlus, President of the Evangelical Theological Seminary of Port-au-Prince (STEP) (pictured with family), shared last month: “Mr. Tim Stafford, senior writer from Christianity Today magazine, just spent a week with my family. I helped him around the country to put the story of the earthquake together. We visited a lot of people, including senators, pastors, business people, scholars, NGO workers, missionaries, common folk, etc. We went to a lot of places, including the city that was the epicenter of the earthquake [Léogâne]. Tim was very grateful for what he learned during the trip.”
