Haiti Arrival

We have had a wonderful, uneventful flight to Port au Prince, Haiti. We had the usual drive to Jacmel which went quickly due to it being a holiday today in Haiti.
Many of you have asked if things have gotten better since the 2010 earthquake. Remember that Haiti was/is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. That said, there are areas of growth. Recycling is happening in the urban areas! There is also heavy construction equipment that helps keep the roads clear after disasters like hurricane Isaac earlier this summer.
One of the great stories we've heard is that several children who were once child slaves have been allowed to attend school at Lekol sen Trinite (Trinity School) Monday through Friday!   It is inspiring to hear the stories of our partnerships!
Having gone to Haiti for the last few years, I rejoice at seeing the small changes that being so much hope. God never gives up on us.

Please remember us in prayer. We can feel God's hand of grace upon us because of your promise to remember us.
Peace,
Pastor Rhonda
