- Team continues to work hand in hand with Team Rubicon (which has grown to more than 20 members)
- L'Arche Haiti has 11 buildings on 3 properties, 10 of the buildings have been condemned
- All 40 of L'Arche's community members are living outdoors - no electricity, only mattresses, but they do have a well. Wayne and Rey set up a sleeping area for them in a banana grove using 40 x 20' tarps
- The team is going where other larger teams are not, this has really been appreciated and become their niche
- Colleen ran a pharmacy today out of a tap tap (local vehicle), helping a team of 10 medics
- Sheila administered wound care
- Pat assessed medical needs at L'Arche
- Alex continues to serve as team communicator, and edit video from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
- BBC News reported that between 80-90% of the homes in Carrefour are damaged, and 400,000 people will be moved into tent cities around Port au Prince
- Today team members have reported feeling fulfilled, well used, and so glad to be helping the Haitians.
- Wayne's informative phone call got cut short as he was parked on the tarmac at the airport picking up medical supplies...it's a funny world!
- The team continues to sleep in tents at the Jesuit seminary, but enjoy the morning and evening debriefs with Team Rubicon
