PJ is home safe from Haiti!

I'm not sure how many of you know that Pj was over in Haiti, but he was. He was one of 14 Lynn University Students part of a "Journey of Hope" group that went over there to build houses. Pj and his group were there when the earthquake hit. It is my pleasure now to tell you that after 3 days of uncertainty that Pj is officially back on U.S. soil and from what I've gathered he did not suffer and terrible injuries. Unfortunately 6 people from his group are still in Haiti missing so please keep them in your prayers and and just be so greatful that Pj is safe and escaped such a terrible trajedy.

Thanks Charlie. What a relief. Pretty sobering stuff.

yea huge relief, oh and they were there for a food program not building houses as a said before. According to a news article Pj and the other survivors were luckily hanging out at the pool and that's what most likely saved them. the others that are missing from his group were thought to be in their rooms in the hotel which collapsed during the quake.
