Sleeping Beneath the Stars of Mercy

After days of watching heart wrenching footage of the earthquake in Haiti and having no contact with the boys and staff at The Clermont Center we were beginning to think the worst. But today we finally received some good news. The boys and staff are safe. There is substantial damage to the house (pictured above intact), so like many Haitians who have survived the earthquake, they have spent the last few nights sleeping outside in the yard. They still have some food and water from my mother's Christmas visit but obtaining food, water and supplies will be difficult due to the devastating damage done to Jacmel's infrastructure. Most of the city of Jacmel lies in rubble.
