【慈幼通訊社 2010119海地太子港訊】 117日,海地真福李納德會省議會舉行了一次會議,第一次評估形勢並對可見的未來作出一些決定。

委員會成員包括Jaques Charles神父,Sylvain Ducange神父—最近被委任為下任長上,Ange Zucchi神父,Jean Sylvain神父,Jean Baptista神父,Julio Nau神父,Gerald JeannotJean-Paul Mesidor神父,他們正計劃將海地的慈幼會士會院重新分配。

ENAM會院情況最令人擔心,還有Bohnen神父的小學校全部被摧毀;Thorland會院倒塌,Gressier會院有部份被毀。Cite Soleil的教堂及祈禱室完全倒塌。

Fleuriot Petiont Ville的會院同樣損毀嚴重。Thorland Petion Ville現在被用作接待難民的中心,並已有3,500人入住。

原來住在ENAMFleuriot 的慈幼會團體已轉往海地的其他團體居住,而初學生會轉往古巴Antilles 會省。

為了把救援工作部署得更好,更好地溝通及施行計劃,一個慈幼會危機處理委員會已經成立,成員有:Jacques Charles神父, Ducange Sylvain神父 Ange Zucchi神父。在海地的每一個慈幼會團體將要遞交一份關於會士、學生及會方財產的詳細報告。

現在優先的要務是:慈幼會士的臨時安置,協助那些本由慈幼會士照顧的人,保護會院及事業,維修會院的圍牆,組織專門小組詳細評估各建築物狀況,最終為被毀建築物成立中期重建計劃。

First responses to the emergency

(ANS – Haiti Port-au-Prince, 19 January 2010 ) – On 17 January the Council of the “Blessed Philip Rinaldi” Vice Province of Haiti held a meeting for a first  assessment of the situation and to make some decisions for the immediate future.

The  Council including  Fr Jaques Charles, Fr Sylvain Ducange, recently appointed as the next Superior, Fr Ange Zucchi, Fr Jean Sylvain, Fr Jean Baptista, Fr Julio Nau, Fr Gerald Jeannot and  Fr Jean-Paul Mésidor, worked on a plan to relocate the Salesians in the houses in Haiti.

The situation was particularly worrying at the Salesian house of ENAM and the Little Schools of Father Bohnen (OPEPB) which are completely destroyed; Thorland has collapsed in on itself and Gressier has been partially damaged. Thre church and the parish centre of the “Cité Soleil” have totally collapsed.

The house at Fleuriot has been seriously damaged as has that at Petiont Ville. The houses of Thorland and Petion Ville have become reception centres and at present have about 3500 people there.

The Salesians who were living in the communities of ENAM and Fleuriot are being housed in other communities in Haiti, while the young post-novices will go for the time being to the Antilles Province.

To coordinate relief better, to  facilitate communication and plan for the development of activities a Salesian Crisis Committee has been established made up of Fr Jacques Charles, Fr Ducange Sylvain and Fr Ange Zucchi. Each community in Haiti will need to send in a detailed report of the situation of the Salesians, the young people and the property.

The priority needs are: the temporary re-location of the Salesians, finding help for the people now in the care of the Salesians, protecting the houses and the works, repairing the perimeter walls, creating a team to assess the condition of the buildings  and finally setting in motion a medium-term reconstruction programme for the buildings destroyed.
