The team has landed safely in Cap-Haitian and we are in the orphanage after a bumpy 40 minute bus ride. We did have some issues with the luggage at the start of our time in Haiti. The first was due to a weight issue where some of our luggage had to come on a separate flight. A group has gone back to the airport to pick it up. We also had another issue where the back of the bus was not shut properly and one of our team members bags fell off the bus. The door had not been secured for quite some time so no one was aware of a bag falling from the bus. But by God's mercy, a couple of the orphans rode back into town and found the lost bag. So our luggage situation on the first day is infinitely better than last time.
The team has been spending time today reconnecting with old friends and meeting with new ones. Some of us will spend some time laying the land for our projects tomorrow. We'll be gathering materials and planning out the best ways to complete each project. The internet is painfully slow but I will try to update everyone as often as I can. If the internet cooperates, I will post some pictures later.
Thank you for your prayers
