3 years after Haiti earthquake
As a journalist,[url=http://duveticajacketsonlinejp.halod.com/][b]ダウンジャケットメンズ[/b][/url], we are taught to cover the big stories, but three years ago,[url=http://duveticashop.webmium.com/][b]デュベティカ専売店[/b][/url], I found myself in the middle of one of the biggest -- caught in the massive earthquake and holding onto Faith.
She was just 15 at the time. Faith Grosshans kept a journal about what happened that fateful day.
"We were in the dining area, and the tables started moving all over the place,[url=http://discount2013duveticajackets.webmium.com/][b]デュベティカ取扱店神戸[/b][/url]," she wrote. "I got up and yelled,[url=http://parajumperslongbear.webmium.com/][b]discount Men And Women Parajumpers Jackets Outlet On Sale 2013[/b][/url], 'What's happening?' then saying, 'What do we do?' Living in Florida,[url=http://duveticajacketsonlinejp.halod.com/][b]デュベティカダウンジャケット[/b][/url], no one even tells you what to do in an earthquake. So, Christine grabbed me."
Faith and I were among a group of 40 volunteers with New Missions, an Orlando-based organization dedicated to helping children and their families in Haiti, when the earthquake hit.
About a half-hour later, I recorded a video message to send to my family and loved ones back home:
"I want to let you know that we had a massive earthquake,[url=http://duveticatrenchcoat.webmium.com/][b]デュベティカ サイズ選び[/b][/url]. We were inside at the time. Everything was shaking. We didn't know what was going on,[url=http://monclerjassengoedkopekoop.albirank.net/][b]Moncler Jassen Goedkope Koop Moncler Jassen Online Nederland Winkelcentrum[/b][/url]."
"I remember the village next to us,[url=http://duveticajacketsshopjp.gengfl.com/][b]デュベティカダウンジャケット[/b][/url], and the screams," Faith wrote. "That's something that has stuck with me."
Back in Central Florida, Faith's mother,[url=http://duveticajacketswomenjp.albirank.net/][b]デュベティカダウンジャケット[/b][/url], Carol Grosshans, feared the worst.
"There was a constant barrage of the pictures of bodies lined up on the road,[url=http://duveticadownjackets.webmium.com/][b]http://duveticadownjackets.webmium.com/[/b][/url], and of course,[url=http://duveticadownjackets.halod.com/][b]デュベティカ 激安[/b][/url], the rubble, the hotel that was destroyed,[url=http://duveticajacketsmenonsalejp.halod.com/][b]ダウンジャケットレディース[/b][/url], the numbers of people dead." she recalled. "So, of course,[url=http://duveticajacketssalejp.albirank.net/][b]デュベティカアウトレット[/b][/url], you start to play that in your head: 'OK, that's Port-au-Prince. military in Black Hawk helicopters.
The dangerous mission was complete, but hearts and lives were changed forever.
"I definitely think my outlook on life -- and on my family and friends,[url=http://duveticaonline.halod.com/][b]デュベティカ 店舗[/b][/url], and how important they are to me,[url=http://duveticaonline.halod.com/][b]デュベティカ ダウンジャケット[/b][/url], and how important our time here is -- has changed," said Faith. "You get such a compassion for the people, and they become family. They are not strangers."
Faith knew from the moment we were rescued, she wanted to head back and help. She finally got that opportunity two years later, in March 2012.
"I think the biggest thing for me was going through Port-au-Prince for the first time," she said. "I was seeing rubble from the earthquake,[url=http://duveticajacketsoutletjp.albirank.net/][b]ダウンジャケットレディース[/b][/url], and one of the things I was thinking about was how much people had already forgotten about it, and how much hope is still needed."
Hope,[url=http://duveticajacketswomenjp.albirank.net/][b]デュベティカ ダウンジャケット[/b][/url], three years later,[url=http://discountduveticajackets.webmium.com/][b]デュベティカ 店舗[/b][/url], and change.
"Those that are there are very thankful for their lives," said New Missions President Tim DeTellis. "Over the last three years,[url=http://monclerdeutschland.albirank.net/][b]http://monclerdeutschland.albirank.net/[/b][/url], in my numerous return visits to Haiti, I've seen, really, a level of confidence in the Haitians that there is a new future for Haiti."
A future Faith said she hopes to be a part of, as she prepares to head back again on Sunday, just one day after the three-year mark since the deadly earthquake.
This time, however, she'll be accompanied by her mom.
"I really have a desire to see what she saw," said Carol Grosshans.
To see and experience hope in Haiti, three years later.
"Are people finding their passions? What are they passionate about? If you are passionate about helping the homeless, then go help the homeless. If you are passionate about helping Haiti, then help Haiti," said Faith.
A challenge from this bright 18-year-old that each of us can make a difference.
New Missions is currently launching a new campaign to collect shoes for children in Haiti, specifically sneakers,[url=http://monclerjassendamesonline.albirank.net/][b]http://monclerjassendamesonline.albirank.net/[/b][/url], so they don't have to walk barefoot. You can find out how to donate HERE.
