Haiti State of Emergency 2024 - Lauren Frey

Haitians are in the midst of trying times, especially in the Port-au-Prince region; a state of emergency has been declared and a curfew has been issued for 72 hours as order is restored to the nation's capital.

We are blessed at Branch Schools with skilled and formidable directors and teachers who have lions' hearts when it comes to adversity; keeping the safety and hope ablaze in the eyes of the children and the surrounding communities.

They truly hold the fort.

All public administration, businesses, and schools will be closed as this state of emergency has been issued from 5:00 a.m. Monday until 6:00 p.m. Wednesday, March 6th. The curfew does not include police enforcement, fire fighters, or first responders.

We are confident in the skills and commitment of our directors and teachers in the Port-au-Prince region and across Haiti.

We pray that, if it is God's will, all the citizens, directors, teachers, and children will be kept safe. Heavenly Father, please give strength and resolve to all who restore order and determination to the citizens who have been affected by the disruption.
