Friday Feb 19 Serious Accident

This evening our group was traveling ,in an old bus, in a convoy with other volunteers back to Port-au-Prince. The bus in which they were riding hit an unmarked speed bump or possibly something from the earthquake at a high rate of speed. Three members of another relief team were in the back seat, which evidently had no seat belts. When the bus hit the bump, they were launched upward, hitting their heads on the roof of the van with such impact that all three may have suffered broken necks. They were taken by ambulance to one of the best hospitals, operated from Miami, in stable condition. Dr. Scott Welker is with them.
Please pray as they get medical attention. Though they are not part of our team from Walla Walla, and we don't even know their names, God knows who they are and where they need to be to get the proper treatment.
