Haiti Pictures

Some pictures from our trip...


At the border. People have set up all kinds of things to sell.


One of the largest tent communities we saw. All of these people lost their homes in the earthquake and are living in these tents indefinitely.


The remains of a building.


The tent community that we worked in.


Doing the "human knot" with the teenage girls.


Ryan dancing or fighting (not sure?) with one of the boys.




A view of the city and a collapsed home




The Presidential Palace. Not the best picture but you can see that it collapsed.


A 3 story building collapsed into a big mess.


Crowded streets


Ryan getting his face decorated with stickers


The teenage girls working on their purses made out of plastic bags and old jeans.



We took a lot more pictures, but hopefully this gives you and idea of what our trip was like and the current condition of Haiti. As Ryan said before....please keep praying for Haiti.

Just saw your post...I'm sure the pictures can't capture the devastation and loss. I'm so glad you could go and help..I love the picture of Ryan getting his "stickers". I thought she was feeling his goatee or something. Hope all is well with you guys. Happy to hear all of your good news. Be blessed!! We love you both very much.
