Patrick and Barb Lataillade from Haiti- Fundraiser concert

MARCH 28 AT 6 P.M., BAYSHORE MENNONITE CHURCH FUNDRAISER AND BENEFIT CONCERT FOR PATRICK AND BARBARA LATAILLADE, MISSIONARIES TO HAITI FOR THE PAST 28 YEARS. THE CHURCH IS LOCATED AT 3809 CHAPEL DRIVE IN SARASOTA
Several local Christian musicians will take part in the concert.  This will be a night of praise and worship as well as an opportunity to help meet the needs of the Lataillades, who were both seriously injured in the recent earthquake that shattered Haiti on January 12.  Patrick spent eighteen hours buried under the rubble of their home.  He lost his right arm and Barbara lost her right foot. Patrick was in ICU and was close to death at times.  They spent two weeks in Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami before transferring to Tallahassee for therapy and preparation for prosthetics. Patrick will need about $25,000 to receive a prosthetic arm.

Come hear their remarkable story of rescue and recovery and their vision to return to the work in Haiti. For further information call 941-776-0432  You may check for more information regarding the Lataillades by going to their blog at
