Where God brings specific special needs of the Body of Christ on the ground in Haiti, Rescue Haiti’s Children seeks to respond by providing very practical assistance. We met a dear Christian lady with a huge goiter on her neck who was a former neighbor of our beloved Rood. Rescue Haiti’s Children’s staff physician, Dr. Jim Vernier, gave her a preliminary field examination. With a few phone calls we determined that the goiter could be removed along with her thyroid for under $2,000. This means a new life for this woman, who was smiling and grateful to God, before she learned of our willingness to help. In America, most families would find a way to get the money to have this kind of surgery. In Haiti, it might as well be ten million. Of course, “With God all things are possible.” And we are thankful that we may be able to be part of the solution that God uses in this case.
