Finally!

First time we have Internet since arrival on Thursday. Welcome to Haiti!

Did I yet mention it is really HOT here?  I mean REALLY hot. But, that aside I am happy to see friends and all the sights and sounds of Haiti. Yet amongst the joy of rekindling friendships and preparing our 'to do' lists, we've experienced a great sadness. Our friend and interpreter, Wilbens, lost his younger brother shortly after our arrival. We had just arrived at the Jeremie hospital to visit him and see how we might assist with his care, but were moments too late. God had taken him to a better place. We are filled with the sadness of his passing and for the deep family loss. Our prayers are extended to Wilbens' family for peace and solace.  Funeral arrangements are being made and planned for Monday.
