Greetings from Haiti!
The past few days have been a whirlwind of plane rides, making our way through the airport in Haiti and getting to Grand Goave. There were some unexpected twists when we landed in Haiti which made our ride to Grand Goave an adventure but we made it and everyone was in GREAT spirits when we made it to our new home for the next 10 days.
On Monday when we arrived, we were greeted by our wonderful hosts, Wade and Marilyn. They made us feel so welcome and we all felt very at home as soon as we arrived. We spent some time walking around Haiti Arise and saw the different buildings, such as the Technical School, clinic and church. Many of us on the team have seen pictures of these things from the Haiti Arise website or through past people that have gone but it was wonderful being able to see it with our own two eyes.
We spent our evening on the roof where we heard Marc Honorat share his story and how God led him and his wife Lisa to start Haiti Arise. That time will be a definite memory for all of us. It was a reminder to us of how BIG a God we serve and how he is doing amazing things in the world. It's beautiful what he can do when we are obedient to what he asks of us and calls us to do.
Everyone is doing well. Some of us are still a bit tired but that hasn’t stopped us from taking in everything we have seen and experienced so far!
We will continue to keep you all updated on our time here and share some pictures with you soon!
Thank you for all your prayers as we traveled here and thank you for your continued prayers.
Blessings,
Chantelle
