By OSV News<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

(OSV News) \u2014 A longtime Irish missionary in Haiti has been freed after nearly a month of captivity. Gena Heraty, who has been working in Haiti for 30 years, was freed along with the other hostages captured Aug. 3 after gunmen breached the Saint-H\u00e9l\u00e8ne orphanage in Kenscoff, near Haiti\u2019s capital of Port-au-Prince.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The nongovernmental organization for which the missionary<\/a> works, Nuestros Peque\u00f1os Hermanos, reported the news with \u201cdeep gratitude and a relief that cannot be described in words.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agenzia Fides, a news branch of the Dicastery for Evangelization, confirmed Sept. 1 that the freed hostages \u201care all safe, receiving medical and psychological care, and are with their families.\u201d Among those freed is the 3-year-old child with a disability, Fides said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heraty\u2019s family also confirmed her release, thanking everyone who \u201ccontributed to her release. We are deeply grateful to everyone in Haiti<\/a> and internationally who worked tirelessly during these terrible weeks to ensure her safe return.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The facility, which Heraty headed up, serves 240 children and is operated by Nos Petits Fr\u00e8res et S\u0153urs, established in 1995 as the expansion of Nuestros Peque\u00f1os Hermanos, an international outreach founded by Father William Wasson to serve vulnerable children. The network of charities spans 22 countries and supports 3,200 children in Bolivia<\/a>, Dominican Republic, El Salvador<\/a>, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua and Peru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heraty, an acclaimed humanitarian and Viatores Christi missionary volunteer<\/a>, moved from her native Ireland to Haiti in 1993.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Irish government welcomes her release and urges respect for her privacy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

T\u00e1naiste Simon Harris<\/a>, Ireland\u2019s deputy prime minister and minister for foreign affairs and trade, said in an Aug. 4 statement that Heraty has for over 30 years \u201cdedicated her life to supporting the most vulnerable people in Haiti and it is imperative that she is released immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe worldwide outpouring of sympathy, love, prayers, and solidarity shown to Gena and us by friends, neighbors, communities, colleagues, and even people with no connection to us have been a tremendous source of comfort and support,\u201d said the family\u2019s statement, which asked the media to prioritize the missionary\u2019s \u201chealth and privacy,\u201d Fides reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe ask the media to respect her need for privacy while everyone involved recovers from this traumatic experience. We continue to hold Haiti in our hearts and hope for peace and safety for all those affected by the ongoing armed violence and insecurity<\/a> in the country.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Violence crisis severely limits Church service<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gangs, which control 85% of the capital, according to the United Nations, are said to be responsible for the attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his April 2 statement to the pontifical charity Aid to the Church in Need, Archbishop Max Leroy M\u00e9sidor of Port-au-Prince said the nation\u2019s entrenched violence is constraining the church\u2019s ability to serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTwenty-eight parishes in the Archdiocese of Port-au-Prince<\/a> are closed, while around 40 are operating at minimum levels because the neighborhoods are controlled by gangs,\u201d the archbishop said. \u201cThe priests have been forced to flee, finding refuge with their families or with other clerics. They need help. The archdiocese is also in difficulty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some 5.4 million Haitians face \u201chigh levels of acute food insecurity\u201d due to the armed gang violence, with 6,000 residents experiencing \u201ccatastrophic levels of hunger and a collapse of their livelihoods,\u201d according to a report released in August 2024 by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between the beginning of April and the end of June, armed violence in Haiti<\/a> has killed 1,520 people and injured 609 more, according to a new report on human rights in Haiti which was released on Aug. 1 by the U.N.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
