Not really sure how to start this blog! So many mixed emotions. Our travels from Detroit to Miami went smooth. Then from Miami to Port Au Prince was smooth as well. We all got through customs easily and amazingly all 34 totes made it through! Our travel then took us on two buses through Port Au Prince, up and over the mountains, and finally ending our destination in Jacmel. Words will never fully explain what we saw, how we felt and what we experienced. The devestation and poverty is unreal. Pictures will never grasp the destruction.
Everyone is staying pretty healthy. The men spent the morning digging a foundation for a home and then loaded blocks to the job site and carried a ton of rocks. They worked extremely hard. It is very, very hot and humid. The women stayed back in the "family home" and loved on the kids, feed them breakfast and played. Some took on the daunting task of cleaning and organinzing the pantry!
We are all looking forward to what the week is going to bring. God is so good and Im thankful to be serving such an awesome God! Keep the prayers coming and thank you all for your support! In Christ..
