Haiti Phase 1-3 Mercy teams

One Life/Infinity Ny Church respond to Gods Call
Team One: (See photo below Left to Right): Scott Winters: Actor, Bob Thompson: Investment Banker, Pastor Dimas Salaberrios: Infinity NY Church, and Pastor Al Taylor: Infinity Mennonite Church in Harlem left NYC on January 18, 2010 as a result of a call God placed on their hearts. They landed in Santa Domingo with medical supplies donated by various NY hospitals along with basic food and water for themselves. From there they were able to procure additional food and water to be transported into Port au Prince via a rented van. This strategy proved efficient with their targeted approach and small footprint. Once settled at a church facility in the Delmas area they set up to help the people without knowing what they would find. They were first responders to many of the camps who had yet to receive medical aid or food and water. Eleven days after the quake, they were first responder to an orphanage and were able to provide water and enfamil to the children. They preformed mobile medical triage at the camps, transformed their mini van into an ambulance to drive the most severe cases to the makeshifts hospitals, provided basic food and water and prayed for the Haitian people.

Team Two: Dr. Randall Owens: Surgeon, Mt. Sinai, Dr. Steven Burgher: Head of Emergency at Baylor University, Texas and Heather Butcher: Infinity NY Church was sent to overlap with Team One and bring in more medical expertise. After the initial emergency response of Team One and team two, One Life/Infinity took a week to access the mission.

Team Three: Annie Petronis: Trinity Presbyterian Church/EMT, Pastor Mimsie Robinson: Bethel Gospel Church of NY, Michael Faulkner: New Horizon Church of NY and Tara Flynn: Infinity NY Church went to Haiti in accordance with the two month objective that came out of that time of assessment. Our current objective is to send additional teams biweekly to provide the camps with food, water and Pastoral & Counseling Care in addition to continued medical attention.
