Arrival

This one is going to be short because I am tired and it has been long day with a lot of information.
Got here with only one flight delay (the notorious Miami airport...). Oh, and the fact that are plane bounced on the landing. No, not a touch and go, a BOUNCE. I think the lady next to me almost lost her cookies....
It's pretty crazy. The city is very busy and there literally are "tent" cities everywhere.
We are staying at a compound North of Port Au Prince. Samaritan's Purse is serious business- the compound is very secure. There are US military as well as a security on property.
We are serving at a clinic in City Sole(sp?). I guess it is the SLUM of Haiti, and definetely not the safest part of town! I am very interested to see how tomorrow goes, and to experience God in this manner.
One story from today- after we landed we were taxing down the run way, and I was talking with the woman next to me. Her name is Elisabeth. She is originally from Haiti, but lives in Boston. Her mom took her and her sister there when they were younger, and then her mom had since moved back to Haiti. As she was telling me her story, her eyes filled with tears. She said that this is her first time back since the earthquake, and that she had lost her mother in the quake. She was coming to see what was left and if she would be able to find the rest of her family. My heart broke for her.
