Two buses have been purchased by our missionary team in Haiti and are RIGHT NOW rescuing fleets of orphaned children in Haiti and transporting them to safety. As the people of this devastated nation continue to look for help anywhere they can find it – the threats of disease and violence continue to grow and stare them in the face. Its so important to remove these children from this environment – and now we have the tools to do so. 2 buses is hardly enough, but it is swiftly bringing those who are in harms way into the arms of peace, safety, and medical aid. It takes about 8-10 hours roundtrip to bring these little ones to their destination of safety and both time and FUEL are of the essence.

Our team on location is having to refuel every few hours. When you give you are putting gas directly into the tanks of these life-saving vessels.

$50 fills one bus tank permitting 75-100 children to be transported out of ground zero.

All money is wired directly to our missionary team in Port Au Prince, Haiti within a few hours!

In addition to the prayer gathering happening at FCC, this Monday, Pastor Steve will be hosting his weekly phone prayer at 9:00pm. The prayer line will focus on Haiti and will also provide updates on our missionary on location in Haiti.

As giving continues, FCC will be making financial transfers, in hopes to encourage and equip our team on site. Your giving makes the world of difference. Pastor Steve has made it his mission to get churches on board with sending financial aid to Haiti. This Friday he Twittered, “This is not about promoting your ministry. Or who gets the credit. Or how much money you can raise on your TV show. Wash some feet…”

Giving is now available online through our blog page, as well as our church website.

All money is being directly transferred to Tony and his Team.

Meanwhile in the states, Pastor Steve & Melodye Munsey, Senior Pastor of Family Christian Center, began rallying supplies and financial support to put in the hands of our on site heroes. Finally the time came Wednesday afternoon where McCreary and Munsey came voice to voice via telephone. Tears and sorrow could not express the reality that was all around one of our very own. Still, through rubble and mud, Pastor Steve and Tony were determined to do what they could.

About 4 hours after the earth’s attack, McCreary & team had transported supplies from the Dominican Republic to Haiti (4 hr drive) having erected a mobile tent station, above which hangs a paper sign reading “Family Christian Center” providing water and sandwiches to hundreds. Through the sleepless nights and many trips to and from the base camp, Tony continues to open his arms and supplies to any and all. Early Thursday marked the beginning of medical and extended relief. Food, Bibles, Prayer, Medicine, Blankets, and water.. all basics and necessities – but none of which can heal the hundreds of thousands of hearts which have been broken there. Tony tells us that as of this Sunday, there still has yet to be sight of any help from the outside world. A lone ranger, it seems, but a hero to many – McCreary drives to and fro gathering supplies purchased outside of PAP with the financial aid of Family Christian Center bringing back life’s simple rights to the hurting people of Haiti. Tony also tells us that many groups that have shown up are experiencing resistance from Haitian officials and government, yet he continues to come and go with what he is calling “supernatural favor”. New Widows, lost children, witchdoctors, and amputees are just a few of those flooding the all new Haitian Family Christian Center. In a land where voodoo is the national religion, and many do not know the name of Jesus – The Munsey Family, Family Christian Center and Tony are hoping that hope would indeed RISE. Our prayers and relief efforts continue without delay or hesitancy for Tony, and for the nation of Haiti.
