Foundation implemented health, education and social welfare projects throughout Mongolia’s Dornogobi province, placing a strong emphasis on the Gobi Desert region.

However, by 2007, Batsuuri realized the needs of Mongolia’s Gobi Desert villages far greater than what his small foundation’s budget could handle. The hospitals needed labs—and the Dornogobi Foundation didn’t have the funds.

Enter International Aid.By the grace of God, Batsuuri

stumbled across our website in 2007 and was able to read about our Lab-in-a-Suitcase program. The Lab-in-a-Suitcase (LIS) is a portable medical lab that is used to diagnose patients accurately and timely, giving patients the greatest chance for survival. Our labs enable health professionals serving in remote areas to perform the majority of

standard diagnostics tests most frequently requested by field physicians.

Believing this lab was the answer to his problem, Batsuuri got in contact with our organziation. For three years, we worked with the Dornogobi Foundation and Mongolia’s Ministry of Health to secure the funds needed to send 14 labs to Mongolia.

“These Labs-in-a-Suitcase will be very helpful to the herders who live in remote areas of my country,” Batsuuri said. “It will save their health, lives and money.”

Praise God for the work He has done through the Dornogobi Foundation, and for the work our two ministries will be able to accomplish in Mongolia’s Gobi Desert region!

As of Oct. 4, 2011 the official death toll attributed to the cholera outbreak in Haiti was over 6,400, with nearly 500,000 confirmed cases in Haiti since October 2010. The epidemic spread throughout the small nation, and some of our partners in the country reported that patients walked nearly 100 miles to reach their clinics in search of available medicines.

Cholera is a contagious bacterial disease that causes severe vomiting, diarrhea and dehydration. This drastic loss of body fluids ravages the body, and—according to the World Health Organization—can sometimes kill the patient within hours if left untreated.

The key to treating cholera is the prompt rehydration of the patient.

While this can be done with oral rehydration salts, the especially severe cholera cases require IV administration of fluids. Without these fluids, the sickest patients cannot survive.

In January 2011, International Aid shipped products that helped rehydrate our partners’ most dire patients. These shipments included the fluids needed to rehydrate the patient as well as the tools necessary to administer the hydration products (i.e., tubes, IVs, etc.).

The January shipment was just one many shipments International Aid has recently sent to Haiti. Since the January 2010 earthquake, International Aid has shipped millions of dollars worth of medical equipment and supplies to our partners in Haiti, with three advanced

clinics arriving a few months before the cholera outbreak occurred.

While our partners ask for help (and we are working to meet their needs), many are asking for prayer. Please continue to pray for healing of the sick; for strength and perseverance for those who are treating the sick; and for prevention of further spread of the disease.

On the morning of March 11, 2011, a massive 9.0-magnitude earthquake occurred off the shore of Japan, igniting a devastating tsunami that wreaked havoc on the island nation. Towns were flooded, fields were destroyed and thousands were killed.

The flood waters also compromised one of the nation’s nuclear plants, forcing whole neighborhoods to evacuate and crippling the economies of fishing communities in Northern Japan.

Once International Aid heard the news of the disaster, the ministry urgently began preparing disaster relief shipments. The American people also responded, and—over the course of several months—International Aid

received over $150,000 in donations for the hardest hit areas of Japan.

Looking back, International Aid is incredibly thankful to God for how He enabled our ministry to bring healing and restoration to the Japanese people.

Here is a look at some of the ways the ministry responded to this disaster:

• International Aid shipped thousands of dollars of medications, hygiene products, blankets and flashlights to partners working on the ground in Japan.

• International Aid coordinated an effort to supply numerous families who lost their homes with “start-up” kits that included items such as appliances and furniture.

JAPAN • MARCH 11, 2011

21

• Our ministry purchased two vans that enabled partners to both transport supplies to affected areas and evacuate people living in locations with high radiation levels.

• We funded food packets that were distributed to Japanese people living in some of Japan’s hardest hit areas.

While God has opened many doors for International Aid to respond to this disaster, the work is not over. Please continue to pray that God will guide this ministry so that International Aid can continue to bring relief to the Japanese people.

They knew the storm was coming, but they had nowhere to go.

The family of eight—including multiple children and a grandparent—was too large to move quickly, and the F5 tornado was already destroying parts of their town. As a last-ditch effort, the family huddled inside a small closet, held each other and prayed.

The tornado bore down on their neighborhood, ripping it apart. The family’s roof tore off of their house, and the inside of their home was nearly gutted.

But the closet stood, and the family was left unharmed.

After the storm and rain subsided, the family painted the message “WE LIVED! GOD SAVES!” across the side of their house.

With those four words, the family let all who came through their town know to whom they owed their lives.

The family’s house was one of the few homes left standing after the F5 tornado went through the Northern Alabama city of Hackleburg in late April. Five of the town’s seven churches were destroyed, and 30 of the 31 businesses in town were wiped out.

“No one should have survived, but God just had His hand on this town,” said Judy Wolf, a tornado survivor and a friend of the family.

In April 2011, a massive system of tornadoes and violent storms unleashed destruction upon several Southern U.S. states, killing over 300 people and leaving entire neighborhoods in ruin. Fatalities occurred in Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia, Virginia and Arkansas.

Some of the hardest hit areas in Alabama were small towns like Hackleburg and neighboring city Phil

Campbell. Many families in these towns lost their homes, their possessions and even some of their loved ones.

While International Aid also sent relief supplies to larger Alabama cities such as Birmingham, our ministry was dedicated to serving these smaller towns.

Working through a network of churches and Christian ministries in Alabama, International Aid delivered two shipments of relief to help cities like Hackleburg and Phil Campbell rebuild. The first shipment included chainsaws, water, gas cans, hygiene kits, tarps, work gloves and other relief items. The second shipment was composed of three semis that contained over blankets donated by West Michigan organizations, medicines, tarps, 5,850 pounds of hygiene kits, blankets, diapers, bread, eggs and other relief items. The trucking, gas and drivers were donated by a West Michigan moving company.

Praise be to God for the generosity of International Aid’s donors, and for the opportunities IA had to serve in response to this devastating tornado outbreak!

24

On May 22, an EF-5 tornado ripped through Joplin, Missouri, causing mass destruction and damaging nearly a third of the city. Roughly 2,000 buildings were affected, dozens of people are missing and over 130 people were killed—making the storm one of the deadliest U.S. tornadoes in over half a century and the single costliest tornado in U.S. history.

International Aid worked with Convoy of Hope, a relief organization based 75 miles east of Joplin, to bring relief to those affected by the tornado. Through this partnership, International Aid was able to respond quickly and appropriately to this disaster.

The West Michigan community used International Aid as a mechanism to

help those affected by this disaster, and many churches and ministries donated thousands of assembled hygiene kits that were distributed to individuals and families in Joplin’s hardest-hit areas.
