Haiti Orphange

A detailed Summary of Haiti Orphange

I do not like kids. So why I decided that I had a calling to go to an orphanage in Haiti to build a school, I still have not quite figured out. Children have always been a minor annoyance to me, with their constant chatter and energy. Often I have thought that had children in our society been taught better manners, perhaps they would not get me agitated so quickly. I spent many sleepless nights wondering why I had decided to go to an orphanage. I was sure that the children would be exactly like the ones here in the States, only poor, black, and parentless. As the day drew closer for us to leave for "boot camp" my apprehensions grew.

Two weeks before my team was scheduled to head off to Haiti for the summer, we went to what was called The Lord's Boot Camp. The thought of it made my stomach somewhat queasy only because I

knew I was not physically in shape and the thought of going through a military style boot camp before leaving on a mission trip just blew my mind.

Actual flight time in the air was only about an hour and fifteen minutes, which came as a surprise to us all. It was a definite comfort to know that we were that close to US territory if something were to happen. At the time we were going, there had been a number of riots happening in Port-au-Prince and a hesitation to let us go was obvious. Everyone was nervous to be going over to this unstable third world country and none of us new what to expect.

The smell of raw sewage overwhelmed our nostrils, having been carried by a humid breeze that was flowing around us as we stepped off the airplane. People engulfed us in hopes of getting money or food. Many tried to take our bag
