Father Bien-Aime, an Anglican Priest, who is Rector of Notre Dame de la Grace Chapel in Port-au=Prince oversees an orphanage in Port-au-Prince. The recent earthquake in Haiti destroyed the orphanage. Two of the twenty-five young girls were injured and required medical attention. They are all homeless and living in the yard next to where the orphanage once stood.
