It all started by this morning by leaving our homes by 3:30 am to depart to this wonderful country, Haiti! A BIG Thank You goes out to our drivers: Carol Langager, Mike DeRoo and Jerry Larson, who got us to the airport safely. I was reprimanded by 4:30 by the other team members because I went through security without the others knowledge and apparently they were waiting for me to come out of the bathroom. I was told "the stray sheep gets eaten by the wolves". I have now been given the unfortunate nickname of "Waldo" as in Where's Waldo..thank you very much.
We all arrived in Haiti a little after 4:30 in the afternoon and were picked put by Jean who brought us to the guest house. On the way, we drove by several tent cities where we could see the living conditions and need for infrastructure that is beyond belief. Once we made our way to the guest house, we were greeted by extremely nice people and a great meal.
We are now preparing and are excited for a big day, tomorrow, where we will be delivering water to the people of Cite Soliel.
God is Good.
