Rescue Haiti’s Children: The Rescue of an Orphan from Douglas Phillips on Vimeo.
This is one of the most heartwarming stories of our trip. This is the story of a little boy whose mother died while saving him. For two days he held the dead body of his mother under the rubble, and the pressure of her head against his arm ultimately gave rise to the need to amputate it. His father, mother, brothers, and sisters all dead, he was brought to us for assistance by the community leaders of the devastated town. God be praised, today he is in the care of Christians at an orphanage where he will receive love and care, and perhaps he will be adopted by a Christian family.
