Another New Jersey church group arrives home after being flown out of quake-shattered Haiti

Another NJ church group arrives home from Haiti

LAWRENCEVILLE, N.J. — A second New Jersey church delegation has arrived home from Haiti after being caught in the Caribbean nation’s devastating earthquake.

Twenty congregants and staff members from The Presbyterian Church in Lawrenceville and other Mercer County churches were flown Friday from Port-au-Prince to San Juan, Puerto Rico.

The church group is the second from New Jersey to get out of Haiti safely.

A 15-member group from Trinity United Methodist Church in Hackettstown got home earlier Friday. Members of that group were playing ball with children at an orphanage when Tuesday’s quake hit.
