American Missionaries Whom Joe Biden Abandoned in Haiti Plead for Rescue
Breitbart ^ | 3-13-24 | John Hayward

Posted on 03/13/2024 8:02:23 PM PDT by bimboeruption

American missionaries trapped in Haiti pleaded for rescue on Tuesday, reporting constant gunfire around their hideaway and corpses rotting in the streets. The group’s leader said the only assistance they have received from the Biden administration was advice to “be safe.”

“Okay, well, that’s not really helpful,” Jill Dolan of the group Love A Neighbor said of the response she received from the U.S. Embassy when she asked for help getting her family out of Haiti.

“My fear is that we will be caught in the middle of something really dangerous. We’re already on the front lines of it; we’re in a bad area. It’s kind of depressing. The gunfire never stops,” Dolan told the New York Post on Tuesday.

Dolan and her family are holed up in a “makeshift motel” in the capital city of Port-au-Prince, where the worst battles of Haiti’s immense gang war have been fought. She and her family founded Love a Neighbor — a nonprofit missionary charity, based in Washington State — to help manage a small orphanage for children abandoned or sold by their impoverished parents.

Dolan said she was on her way out of Haiti to attend a wedding in Florida with her husband and adopted teenage children when gangs attacked the airport, causing all commercial flights to be canceled.

“We’ve contacted agencies to extract us out. They have just said, ‘It’s way too dangerous where you are; you have to stay put,’” she told CBS News on Wednesday.

To say the least. This administration’s FBI has declared Christians terrorists, attack Christian’s beliefs and as I look at it, perpetuated, promoted and funded Christians against Christians…. What you say? Yes, both Russian and Ukrainian people have a large amount of believers- and they have pitted both against each other. Using US taxpayers money for Christians to kill Christians.

The current US administration has much blood on its hands.

This is what happens when baby-killers are in positions of authority.

I wish I could have gotten a better source than the WaPo, but it’s all I’m finding right now. This is about the rescue that included Mitch Albom. I pray there will be more.

Also, there is mention of a USMC unit sent in today to secure the US Embassy.

Fox News had the account of Cory’s rescue also.
One brave man.

Missionaries don’t usually go to safe, easy venues
They go where they are spiritually called

I don’t understand the incredibly angry remarks by some of you.

Jim Elliott was 29 when he was killed by the Auca Indians in Ecuador
His wife and sister chose to return there with others to continue the ministry……and actually saw conversion in the man who speared her husband

From my church we have missionaries in India and Africa

I would not want to go to Haiti….but I know missionaries, who are very aware of the morbid conditions, go there and live and minister both spiritually and humanely.

Yeah, whatever. Jesus didn’t say to breeze right by 350 million people closer as you travel 3400 miles to live on the beach to preach to morons.
They wasted money and were inefficient. Jesus dislikes that a lot.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

I was listening to the Mitch Albom show on 760 AM. I catch it once or twice a month when I’m driving home from Cleveland.

I don’t listen to it that often so I’m not familiar with the voices.

They talked about 10 evacuees being jammed into a chopper that holds only 4 passengers and then being told they couldn’t land. I was on the edge of my seat wondering how their story would end.

“It’s time to treat Haiti as India does Sentinel Island.”

It’s odd, I was just thinking of that comparison. I mean they both practice cannibalism for one thing.

I saw the movie, End of the Spear.

It was very moving.

I know several missionaries and get their call on their lives. They go where God calls them because.

I don’t get the anger either nor the *They got what they deserved* mentality.

...I am not aware of any state or city that could not use Christian missionaries right there at home...

Our small rural church used to support missions in far-off countries. A few year ago we go a new pastor and our focus changed to missions right here at home and one about two hours drive away.

Our congregation is much more involved because they can see the results with their own eyes.

I sometimes make the point, that it helps to actually have a pastor who is available for the flock . . . instead of thousands of miles away.

Bless you.
