We could not believe how many families came to seek a place to stay. We had round the clock people there to serve them. Many were in shock after losing everything. There were some in desperate need trying to find other family members. It was an experience we have never forgotten and some of the people we helped started coming to the church. There was an outpouring of supplies and help from the community. I remember a member of the church went and bought three pair of jeans from his own money to give to a man whose clothes were caked with mud. I would leave there in tears thinking of those families who had nothing but never complained.Deanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15915212437719900464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6674654514206810087.post-4109268570697116882016-01-25T16:30:28.700-08:002016-01-25T16:30:28.700-08:00I have some friends that are missionaries to Haiti...I have some friends that are missionaries to Haiti.

Locally, our family helps with an organization called MCEF(Mechanicsville Churches Emergency Functions). MCEF is able to help local residents with various needs.
