M’ te kite kè m’ nan Ayiti

I left my heart in Haiti.

The people, the culture, the despair, and the hope that exists in Ayiti is mind boggling and captivating all at the same time.  I think I finally understand why Paul Farmer can't stay away.  There are a ton of stories to share - some uplifting and some heartbreaking - but for now all I can articulate is that this sign says Delmas will be beautiful.  Delmas is the region of Port au Prince that I have had the pleasure of serving in.  It is trash ridden, smelly, and noisy but nevertheless the hope that resides there illuminates its beauty.  I cannot wait to return and be a part of cultivating that hope - it might just be what I was made for. xx
