Touch Down !




The first leg of our mission trip went quite smooth. Flights were no hassle, baggage all arrived and no one was lost. A small snafu with a rent-a-car made the evening drive to Fort Pierce an extended adventure. Laura's rent-a-car had electrical issues and had to be towed away - getting us into Fort Pierce after midnight. After a short nap we were on the road again and headed for the MFI airfield. No snafus there either, and after a four hour flight we touched down in Cape Haitian. Again we were blessed with a clean pass through customs and shortly we arrived by tap-tap at the mission. Fellowship has been good around the dinner table, and planning sessions have been completed for the next few days. Pat & Clark were very happy with the new laptop, all the medical supplies, crocs and necessities the team has brought down. Tomorrow will be house projects, painting and repairing. We are sticking close to the house due to possible civil unrest in the community tomorrow. No worries – just a precaution. The video is going well and I have captured some very nice images for you all. God bless you all and thank you for your continued prayers.
