Raul Martinez de Villa, from Remedios, sent us these photos tonight (Sept 11). He also sent an audio voice message. Raul is part of the church in Remedios and our translator during the mission trips.
Raul is physically OK, but sounds tired. People are in shock over the damage in town.
They do not expect to have electricity for 1 to 4 weeks, so food and water are big issues. Water is a problem because they use pumps to pull water from the well. Without water they cannot even flush toilets.
Hurricane force was so strong that it ripped the lock off his the front door and he and his wife had to hold the door shut for 3 hours.
Damage in his house could have been worse. Cracked window panes, but not broken. No flooding. Lost some tile roofs so now he has a leaky roof.
Pray for their continued safety, for clarity in their thinking to solve their problems, for peace in the middle of the storm

| Part of the roof fell unto the roof of the old building and then to the patio |
