12 Remaining Missionaries Kidnapped in Haiti are Released!
It is not known at this time if they were released because their ransom was paid.
In an answer to the prayer of many, the last remaining missionaries and their children kidnapped in Haiti have been released, according to a brief and succinct statement from Christian Aid Ministries, writing:
Several months ago, the notorious 400 Mawozo gang took everyone, including children as young as 8 months old, and demanded a $1,000,000 ransom per person. Wilson Joseph, believed to be the leader of the gang, released a video that was uploaded on YouTube where he publicly vowed “I swear by thunder that if I don’t get what I’m asking for, I will put a bullet in the heads of these Americans.”
The kidnappers released 5 as of last week, and then the remaining yesterday.
