Arrived PaP

Arrived in Port-au-Prince without too many issues. Made it in about
9.5 hours. Thought we were going go get stuck at border - we were told
the border was closed when we got there, so we waited a few minutes
and asked someone else, who responded, "well, you can try to cross."
So, we began driving toward the gate again, and the guard just opened
the gate for us and we smiled and waved. Our supply truck was not as
easy. We're still waiting for it now, though they left before us from
DR. They were still stuck at the border when we came through. Pray
they make it soon. It has our food and most of our medicines/supplies.

Facilities here are adequate. The men are all sleeping in thr church
sanctuary, the women tightly packed into three rooms with bunk beds.
We arrived around 9am here, unloaded, and ate some French Toast for
breakfast. Now waiting for the supply truck and about to head out to
thr clinic site.

They did have an aftershock last night, per the locals, which scared a
lot of folks here. No damage here at home base.

Pray:
For God to be glorified
For our supplies to make it
For health and safety of our team
Against fatigue, dissention, frustration
For team unity
For the Hatian people to be encouraged, blessed, and helped by our
presence here
For all of us, Hatian, American, all the rest to seek the Lord, find
hope in Him, who alone gives lasting hope and peace.
For God to be glorified

We love you all!
