 What we know about the young missionaries and religious leader killed in Haiti
==========

Jude Montis, the local director of Missions in Haiti Inc., and Davy and Natalie Lloyd, a young missionary couple from the U.S., were attacked and fatally shot by gang members in Lizon, Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Natalie Lloyd is the daughter of a Republican state representative in Missouri. The missionary work focused on helping the children of Haiti. Missions in Haiti's efforts include House of Compassion, Good Hope Boys' Home, a church, a bakery, and a school. The couple and Montis fled to a house connected to the mission, but the gang shot up the house. The bodies of the couple were safely transported to the U.S. Embassy. Montis left behind two children. The children and staff of Missions in Haiti have been relocated to a safer location. The family is working to retrieve the bodies and transport them to the U.S. Prayers are requested for the families of the victims.
