Because of the numerous pictures and news stories coming out of Haiti, I have fielded many questions about what exactly is going on in that war-torn country.
First, anarchy reigns. There is no longer a law abiding presence that backs the government. Second, gangs rule on the mainland. Killings, kidnappings, and more happen on a daily basis. Citizens are staying in their homes, constantly in fear for their lives.
On the island of La Gonave, where the mission work of Mark Sutton Ministries is located, things are a little safer. Our schools and churches are still open; the gospel is still being preached; our students are learning. However, more and more people are taking the two-hour boat ride from the mainland to the island to find a safer location, bringing with them criminals who wish to prey on the weaker.
