Co-operation and Loving Aid Bring Comfort
to Haitian Flood Victims
By Georgia and Florida Relief Teams, USA (Originally in English)
On
May 28, 2009, Association members from Georgia and Florida, USA,
arrived in Haiti to bring Master’s love, blessings and gift
of US$15,000 to those affected by the country’s recent flooding.
After a five-hour drive, the team members reached the first destination,
Artibonnite, where they were assisted by members of the Secretariat
of State for the Integration of People with Disabilities (SEIPH)
in purchasing vital supplies for the victims. The owner of one store
generously gave them a large discount on their purchases to help
with the compassionate work. The S.E.I.P.H was also kind enough
to help distribute the supplies from Master to 200 families affected
by the crisis, many of whom were ecstatic upon seeing the arrival
of the relief team.

Representatives of S.E.I.P.H express their
appreciation and thank Master for Her gifts of love. |
On the following day after a grueling ten-hour drive,
the team members came to La Cayes, the most devastated city in the
region. Again the faithful, dedicated friends from the S.E.I.P.H
provided invaluable help in reaching over 460 evacuated families.
They would have found it impossible to bring this vital assistance
to so many without their aid.
All the disaster victims whole-heartedly appreciated
the Supreme Master for bringing Her awe-inspiring gifts of love
and for lifting their spirits and bringing them new hope at this
critical time.
