Gang activity has intensified in our area, and we are asking for your prayers today.

Thank you for your faithful financial and prayer support. What would we do without you?

THE MISSION OF MARIANI is functioning well, thanks be to God. We are still receiving food, medicine, and most items we need. The older children of Solace and Kay Lanmou go to school, the employees come to work, and everyone arrives safely.

We just added 2 new babies to our nutrition program, and we will post pictures in a few days.

In addition to continuously providing medical care to the general public, Hope Alive Haiti has been feeding malnourished babies and supporting nursing mothers and families since we opened over 25 years ago. Solace has been an inpatient nutrition hospital for almost 10 years.

Last week, Martine, our Solace administrator, went to Leogane for three days to participate in an educational conference with Haiti’s Health Ministry. It is normally a 30-minute journey if roads were not blocked, but Martine had to go through the mountains on a motorcycle for a very long ride. The conference was truly a blessing. No matter how long we have been serving, we count it a privilege to continue learning.

After Hurricane Melissa, we did major reconstruction to redirect flood waters (pictured). Although we did not ask you for hurricane relief funding, help with this project would be appreciated.

TRICON - the employees and the clinic building are doing well.

HAITI - The road going south is still blocked. No vehicle of peaceful citizens can go through Gressier.

There was a discovery made by the gang of « Lanmo San jou » of ma*****na, co***ne, people’s bones at a big site that Apaid has where he cultivates ma*****na. The police have intervened and we are watching closely to see the outcome of this event. The gangs are trying to attack at many places: they are - back in Kenscoff - ⁠ in Mirebalais - ⁠fighting the police in Croix des Bouquets. - ⁠Turgeau in Port-au-Prince. Those who have controlled areas like Mariani, Merger, Carrefour, etc. are still running their business as usual without any panic. They collect money from vehicles (tolls) or anyone that is carrying something (merchandise, personal stuff that is valuable) that are passing in their area. Everyone must pay at each gang base.

We have had enough, Lord, and we ask You- please say a word - please speak to us. Thank You. Amen.

It is always a pleasure to send you updates about Hope Alive Haiti.

Pictured are Smiles Alive Dental Clinic and our new septic system.

CLINIC OF MARIANI
Patients still come for our services, our staff still comes to work, the babies in Solace are thriving, the older children still go to school, and we continue buying all the products we need to operate the mission of Hope Alive. We praise God for his mercy on us.

Our new septic system is nearly completed. We will finish laying concrete and the pipe line next week.

We are securing quotes to install a more efficient internet system.

CLINIC OF TRICON
The staff is fine. Patients still come to the cinic. Hurricane Melissa adversely affected the area, but we have seen much worse from previous storms. Thank God, the area is recovering nicely.

Aux Cayes will start receiving international flight soon.

HAITI
The situation is the same (bad) in Port-au-Prince, but Delmas has gotten worse because of kidnappings. The areas of Kenscoff and Fermathe were again invaded by gangs. More people got killed and more territory has been lost.

Gangs are also trying to take over Lascahobas and Hinche in the northeastern part of the country. The police are not effective in their operations. If the gangsters reach Boutilier again, they will burn it this time. Communication will be impossible in Haiti.

Leogane is still blocked, and most of Gressier is still a gang territory.

WE THANK GOD THAT OUR AREA IS PEACEFUL SO FAR.

Thank you for your prayers. if you’d like to help with our new septic system or improved internet, or if you’d like to sponsor a baby, we would be very grateful.

Hi Friends of Hope Alive Haiti. We hope this message finds you well. Here is our weekly update. www.hopealivehaiti.org

CLINIC OF MARIANI

We talked to the administrative staff, and they told us that everything is okay. Children of Solace and Kay Lanmou are fine, and the employees are fine. But, we had an incident at the clinic recently. A gansgter came dressed like any normal patient just as our doctor was leaving, having finished seeing her patients. Not knowing who he was, she agreed to examine the guy. When he got to the exam room he took his gun out and put it on her desk. The guy did not harm her, but our doctor felt stunned to be threatened by a gangster in the exam room.

The reality now in Haiti is gangs rule and take all the rights a normal and peaceful citizen has.

1- Gangs can kill us as they wish. We don't have the right to live, and we cannot force them to respect our right to live.
2- We have no freedom of speech.
Gangsters have killed people just for saying, “Some day there will be an end to our insecurity”. They resent this expression.
3- Gangs limit our right to circulate, because moving from place to place requires us to pay a fee. For instance, to go to Port-au-Prince (only a few miles away) each driver pays at least 7 tolls to gangs.
4- We don’t have the right to food. Food has become incredibly expensive and scarce, and gangs control and obstruct the roads, making transport fees (tolls) impossible to afford. Also, gangs have been burning fields of rice.
5- We don’t have the right to live in peace. The gangsters fire gunshots very often. Many people have heart problems, blood pressure problems, and stress is mounting.

TRICON

The staff of Tricon and the building are fine. Hurricane Melissa is gone, but much damage has been done to this area.

PORT-AU-PRINCE

Flood damage, stones, dirt and trash are everywhere. Many streets are unrecognizable. It's a pucture of terror, death, desolation, and war.

—-

Lord, You are the only One we have, please tell the storm to stop. Amen.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers. Your prayers are sustaining us. Thank you.

🙏🏻 Prayers are requested for 🇭🇹 Haiti, 🇨🇺 Cuba, and especially 🇯🇲 Jamaica, as Hurricane Melissa brings severe flooding throughout those regions. Thank you!

Message from Hope Alive Haiti Administrator

It is always a pleasure to share updates with you about Hope Alive medical clinics, Smiles Alive dental clinic, Solace nutrition hospital, Penny’s sewing school - and general conditions in Haiti.

The clinic of Tricon is fine, but Aux-Cayes flooded a few days ago. It had been raining hard for a long time. Praise God, our employees are safe there. O’Cay is a very risky town in rainy season. When they dig a hole, they find water at less than 15 feet.
About the clinic of Mariani, everything is also fine. We have been able to get what patients need when they come to see our doctor, praise God! Employees have been able come to work. Children at Solace are doing well. We thank you so much for sending money for these babies’ nutrition, their health care, and as they become school age, education.

School starts today, October 1. Look at these precious children whose lives YOU are investing in!

A word about security in Haiti. Many drones have fallen over the past few days. (Drones are intended to deter gang activity.) Drones have affected the behaviour of the armed bad guys. They are more visible now. They are more cautious and skeptical when they encounter people. The government has been trying to clean up Port-au-Prince to encourage the population to return to areas controlled by gangs - even though security has not yet been established.

We are longing for peace. Thank you for your prayers. We remain patient in FAITH that we will see the glory of the Lord. Your prayers and financial support have sustained us, and we will never forget you. Thank you, and may our Lord richly bless you!

Hope Alive Clinic Ministries is a non-profit organization in Haiti treating the minds, bodies and souls of all age groups with all types of diseases and medical emergencies continuously since 1998.

Message from Haiti National Administrator

It is always a pleasure to give you an update about the situation in Haiti. My family, the children of Solace, and Hope Alive employees are all fine. Smiles Alive Dental Clinic and both Hope Alive medical clinics are doing well.

School is scheduled to reopen on October 1. We are making preparations for nine of our children from Solace to attend. Feeding someone is good, but educating him is much better. Education empowers people to earn a living by themselves. Thank you so much Hope Alive.

Yesterday I went to my school. On my way back, it was chaotic with intense fighting between police and gangsters. Many drones fell down. I lost the hope to come back home, but thank God, a heavy rain came and changed the situation, so I got back home safely. I praise God for that.

I request your prayers so I can end my studies safely. I paid a lot of money for my master’s program. Prayers are requested for the Lord’s protection and wisdom for me.
There’s no change in the situation in Haiti except the presidents are fighting to have the resignation of the prime minister. They pretend that he is incompatible with them in his activities.

From Port-au-Prince to Carrefour where I live, at least six gangs are operating on the road collecting money (tolls). The buses have to pay them all. Passengers pay almost three times the normal fare. The people are tired of supporting financial, social and political abuses.

Is there hope? It seems politicians and other corrupt people are getting richer and the population is living in mud and misery. We won’t stop praying, remembering Psalm 121:1 tells us to look for the Lord when there no hope.

May God bless you.
