Giving a life for a life

Here is an old photo of Fabnot and Zach. Gabi just asked me to post some information about how Fabnot came to die.

We had heard that he had turned back to get his laptop. When Gabi told her mother that, Barb cut her off and said, “That's nonsense!” Lolo had told them, before she died that Fabnot had pushed her so she could get out first. So, he died giving his life for her. That is our Fabnot

Zach and Tonpi are on their way now to Hinche to try to find some food to purchase to be used during home visitations so people have something to offer when people visit. And for their own needs as well. Please pray that they find something and that they will be safe on the 4 wheeler on the road. Greg and Barb are still sleeping.

Thank you for this. We heard the laptop story too, and it didn't make any difference to us. But it's better to know the truth, and what a wonderful testimony he did in his last moment of life!

Thanks for the updates, Connie. Our thoughts and prayers are with you continuously. I pray people realize that even though you are not directly in Port, that you are one of their best hopes - now and in the long run. With the air strip in your area and your local knowledge, you are one of the best hopes for refugees and others. Donations to HAFF are even a more direct and better way to help, I believe, than many of the other good larger international ones. Blessings.
