He would be there in a heartbeat if he could. I am so completely heartbreaking for the people of Port au Prince and then all the outlying villages who rely on the city for everything. Thanks for sharing those pictures too. TJ (the hubby) has gone to Haiti multiple times with the Colorado Haiti Project and it totally torn up right now. He would be there in a heartbeat if he could.

Things like this are so hard to wrap my brain around. I've been reading the headlines as I wait for buses but I've tried not to think about it because it hurts to try to comprehend how intense, terrifying, and sorrowful things are in Haiti the past few days. Thank you, Annie,for writing your blogs so beautifully and sharing those pictures. Made me lose my shit for a minute... but that's what I needed. Ugh!

There is a team from the UPC Young Adult Ministry in Haiti as we speak. It turns out they are in the far north and therefore safe, but I was truely affraid for the first time in a long long time. Now I hope that god will use them in a special way to come along side of the Haitians. There are some gifted engineeers and nurses/first aid trained people on the team.

I'm really glad I did :) I'm right with you, I see the images on the tv but that almost keeps me at arm's length. It hasn't really hit home you know, I feel sorry but just go on with regular life...I hate that tv makes us so numb. These pictures and the faces are amazing. It really brings it home. Thank you so much for posting. Annie, I have recently started running with East Nasty and was rooting around on their site and stumbled across your blog.

But this blog convicts me and reminds me of lines from my own song: "Maybe we're all the lazy angels We know what needs doing, but don't awake This is a war for truth and justice But it's easier to look away." I had been looking away. Thanks for showing me their faces Annie. Oh man… to be honest, I’ve been trying to avoid really considering the Haiti earthquake and its aftermath.

Sweet mercy indeed “It’s a sweet mercy and a complete mystery why things happen the way they do.”

Sweet mercy indeed
