Ben called this evening and asked that I let everyone know that he and Jen have arrived in Haiti safely. They had a good day of traveling with no problems. They were able to get through Customs without incident as well! They were able to get to the Fed Ex building JUST before it closed....15 minutes to spare...to pick up the free medicine that had been shipped from the Netherlands to Port-Au-Prince!! They were very happy to be able to get that as the window of opportunity was very narrow! They will be leaving for Jeremie tomorrow morning at 8:00 on a small chartered plane with many supplies. They are hoping they are under the allotted 1000 pounds. Then they will meet their driver who will take them out to Pestel. Please pray for good traveling and no problems in the travels this week. There has been a lot of rain and Ben said the roads could be in pretty rough shape. They are staying tonight at Dani's house and Anderson is with them and will travel with them this week.
I am sending this from an older email that I had, so I am not sure if it is an updated list....so if you know someone who would want to know about this, please pass it on to them!!
Thanks!
Martha Fredrick (Ben's Mom)
