Saint Marc

Last weekend I had the opportunity to go to a town called St. Marc in central Haiti. I went to go and visit two women running an orphanage who have been in Haiti since the earthquake. My time was amazing!! I ended up only staying one night cause God told me I needed to return to Port Au Prince, which I am so glad I did!!! The best part about being in st Marc was spending time with the 3 kids. Josiah, Levenson and Carmilling (spelling?). Josiah is a precious little boy who is 12 months old and only weighs 6 lbs. It's a pure miracle that he is even alive and he's doing so good. Eating well and responsive. He's so adorable. Levenson is another precious boy, about 14 years old. Last time I was in Haiti Levenson was my buddy. When we got to the house, we knocked on the door and I heard him yell, "Christina, Christina!!" Made my heart stop. I love that kid. He then proceeded to show me around everywhere and was talking non-stop with a continuous smile on his dimpled face. Carmilling was recently dropped off at the house. She was living at an orphanage in Port Au Prince since she was a baby. The orphanage was destroyed in the earthquake, not clear on what happened to the other kids.

The next day I ended up leaving, broke my heart to say good-bye to them. But I am planning on visiting again. Oh and I rode on public transportation...what an experience!!! Rode on a motorcycle, then a school bus crammed like sardines, and then a taxi to the base I am currently at. It was an adrenaline rush the entire time...and I will never be a backseat driver again! Thank God for the amazing men of God that traveled with me...they will forever be my brothers and bodyguards!!!
