Last night I arrived in Haiti.  It was a challenging endeavor getting to Haiti- thankful for safe travels.  I was blessed with an upgrade to first class which allowed me 3 free bags and I only paid $100 for extra bag.  What a faithful God we serve.  I spent all that time worrying about transport costs then got a great deal since He worked it out which was such a relief.  I was able to get all of the medications transported, both through my friend who brought a couple of bags earlier in the week and on this flight.  It was very welcoming to have Haitian men singing songs with big smiles as we got off of the bus that we caught from the plane.  However, it was disheartening on arrival after all of that work put into getting medications to have bags confiscated in customs which led to a lot of frustration and it was upsetting.  I did not have the necessary paperwork for getting medications in country. They told me to get a letter from the health ministry to get all the medications approved.  I am working on that and realizing it is another test of my faith.  Above all things I must trust God in every aspect.  He led me to Haiti and He will see it through to ensure meds get to places needed for the people that they are intended to help.  I was exhausted, after about a 2-hour ride, from Port-au-Prince to guest house in Mariani, just past Carrefour.   The drivers took me on a ride to the store enroute to the guesthouse.  The roads were very rocky and after going up and down many unpaved and very bumpy hills we arrived.  We drove through Grace Village which is where my friend from Portland who brought two bags medications for me was staying at.  I later learned that there were two Grace Villages in two totally different locations which is why we were not able to connect initially.  I enjoyed staying at Hope Alive Guesthouse- that evening was spent connecting with some of the Haitian staff, Renaud and Wilio, and with Leslee and Katie.  We had dinner prepared by the cooks.  That night we sat on the porch of the guesthouse talking until late.  We later went to bed, some of the staff preferred to sleep on the roof and it was hot inside.  I slept okay, although hot with no AC or fan, in a room in the clinic area upstairs.  Being under a mosquito net was uncomfortable and stuffy, not something I’d done before in Haiti.
