"Haiti" Will You Go? Part 2

Hey everyone,
You will hear from me today about it being day 3 for me. What happen to arriving on day one and day 2? Video blogging had slipped my mind, but i did film a lot of the destruction. Those clips are on the YouTube site if you would like to check them out. I had arrived on a Saturday and man, coming to the camp was a 3.5 hour drive and 2.5 hours of that was spent in a heavy downpour in the back of a truck. Ha ha, so there was not much to see there.
Sunday was church day. It was a great time of church, very hot of course, and then they took us out to the beach later that day since there was no work to be done. We got to swim in the ocean all afternoon, saw a huge eel that was over 4 foot long, it was so cool. I found some amazing sea shells to bring back to my boys and my wife. I was able to film a lot of tent cities on the way to the beach and back, and a Samaritan's Purse water purification plant for one of the tent cities we passed by.
I was amazed at how much Samaritan's Purse actually did in Haiti. It was quite incredible. The one really good thing I noted in those 3 days was how much access to clean water the people had. People who have been helping Haiti have made it a huge point to be able to get them  access to much needed clean water for drinking. I sure that has helped a lot.
Enjoy the video blog, and I know the verse I share from is addressing as a verse of salvation, but also at the face value of the story, it challenges us to be open and honest and to do. But please use this as a question to yourself......... Will You Go?
