Last night I had the pleasure of speaking to Gena Heraty. I am relieved and inspired after my conversation with her.

Gena’s courage and commitment are boundless. She is someone of extraordinary bravery, unwavering commitment to peace, and decades of dedication to Haiti’s most vulnerable.

She asked me to tell people to pray for Haiti and for peace.

I am so glad that brighter days lie ahead for her and her family.
