A medical/special ops team is arriving today with 50 beds and two mobile medical units to the areas of Sarte and Carrefour where we are partnering with churches. Two big tent cities. I will be arriving in Atlanta tomorrow at 4:40pm on AA 1617. Our time here has been very fruitful and productive. We are excited to see these people restored.

Leaving Port Au Prince today. Lots of collapsed buildings, people still trapped underneath. The hardest hit area was the Capitol building area. We have been setting up for more short term teams to come down. There should be a medical team here next week. Heading to the DR border today and checking in at an orphange. There will be a large influx of orphans coming and looking to be adopted in the US.

Just bought baby formula for a clinic that had three children. Francois the father of one of them was with his wife in their house in Port Au Prince when the earthquake hit. She was on the 5th floor and nine months pregnant. The house collapsed but he said God saved him and his family. He now has a 10 day old baby named francilena. The clinic was out of milk for the babies this
morning. God provided and we were obedient. I am staying two days longer to go into Port Au Prince . Pray for safety, people are getting desperate.

We are in Haiti at a church converted into a trauma care center.  100 new patients arrived yesterday from Port Au Prince.  We are giving lots of water away along with other food.  People are desperate and grabbing for everything they can.

Unloaded water, fed over 100 homeless refugees on Jimani. Desperation is setting in, spirits are low and people are frustrated.
