On Tuesday 12th of January at 16.53pm local time the biggest Earthquake to hit Haiti for 200 years struck with devastating force

Hundreds of Haitians pray at The Church of God, Rue de Centre 3, during the Sunday service ( 07/02/10) The church was damaged during the earthquake with many of the choir singers entombed. Sylvie Selde remembers "The entire group of singers practising were killed. We are still recovering the bodies now, only nine so far. When we recover them we take them to the mass grave or dig a hole and put them in. This is a message from God, a judgement, do the right thing. Stop being wicked". Many believe that in Port Au Prince one Haitian Alex K Juste is more positive "That day, there was no rich, no poor, no colour, no prejudice, no racism. We were equal, they knew that God existed and their hands were up in the air praising the Lord. We held hands, we cared for each other, we supported the sick. What a beautiful thing to see us Haitians reunited, together as one".
