Priest of the Haitian Mission Alive

15/01/2010

Contact has been established today with Fr Gregory Legoute, one of the two priests serving the ROCOR missions in Haiti.  Communication is still very scant and details difficult to come by.  No word has so far been received about Fr Jean-Chenier Dumais, who is the other priest serving the missions, four of which are in Port-au-Prince and the surrounding areas.  Please keep the people of Haiti in your prayers.

Further updates can be found on the website of the Fund for Assistance, where financial assistance to the Haitian ROCOR missions can be sent.  Donations towards the emergency relief effort can be made to the International Orthodox Christian Charities.
