Tomas has regained hurricane strength and is moving quickly north. It has already passed southwestern Haiti and is near the far eastern part of Cuba this afternoon. The main threat from Tomas is expected to be heavy rainfall that could cause life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides over Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Rainfall amounts between 5 to 10 inches are expected in these countries, with rainfall amounts near 15 inches possible in isolated spots. We're already getting reports of flooding and downed trees in western Haiti. The Indian Head Church of God team (ARC) is scheduled to fly back to the States tomorrow (Saturday). Rain is still in the forecast for Port-au-Prince and Saint-Marc tomorrow, but the worst of the storm will be north and flights are still expected to go (at this time). Pray for our Project Help staff in Haiti as they assist the team in getting to the airport and fly home. A team from the Great Lakes Region (led by Pastor Dave Green) goes to Florida on Sunday and then flies on to Haiti on Monday, the 8th. Please pray for their safety in travel.
Mike, Natinha & Hannah Poe will be at Shippensburg First Church of God (ERC) this Sunday. Their support account is CC 2750.
