$8,500 in funds raised through One Great Hour of Sharing (OGHS) are paying $8,500 in pharmaceutical bills for Ebenezer Clinic in Haute Limbe, Haiti, reports Dave Worth, IM’s Development Director who is currently in Haiti working with IM’s partners, the Haitian Baptist Convention. The drugs and medical supplies were used to treat victims of the earthquake. Additional OGHS funds will be used for this purpose.
The staff of the Ebenezer Clinic is still seeing about 200 people every day, many of them earthquake victims. It is staffed primarily by volunteers from the Haute Limbe Baptist church with two public health nurses supplied by the government and two local doctors supported by local and international church partners.
Dr Steve James, IM missionary to Haiti, rushed back to the clinic to help save the life of a small child suffering from dehydration.
Donations continue to be needed. Donors can give through the IM website: www.internationalministries.org/items/80, or by check to: “OGHS – Haiti Earthquake Relief” and mailed to: International Ministries, P.O. Box 851, Valley Forge, PA 19482-0851. Support can also be given by American Baptists through their church by making checks payable to the church with “One Great Hour of Sharing – Haiti Earthquake Relief” written in the memo section. These gifts will be sent from the church through the American Baptist region and then to International Ministries.One Great Hour of Sharing is administered by the World Relief Committee of the General Board. The Committee facilitates American Baptist emergency relief, disaster rehabilitation, refugee work, and development assistance by establishing policy guidelines and overseeing distribution of the annual One Great Hour of Sharing offering.
