Here is a Email Meschac sent to pastor about what is going on in Haiti.

The 3 videos are from CBS Miami who flew to Haiti with Meschac. Top Video is the best.

Information about my travels

On Tuesday, March 19th, Missionary Flights International carried 4 passengers, including myself from the United States to Haiti. As there is so much turmoil in Haiti at this time, the flight experienced turbulence for the entire 4 and half hour trip giving us a preview of what was to come. We landed safely in Cap Haitien to clear through customs and then continued our journey to our final destination in Pignon, Haiti. Unfortunately, people here are starving. I am grateful to MFI because I had an opportunity to bring in some ramen noodles, dry milk, peanut butter and medical supplies for 100 people but it's just not enough. The people all over Haiti are struggling because of the violence in Port au Prince. It has blocked aid and everyday necessities from getting to small villages because there is no gas to travel. Staple products such as rice, beans and oil are too expensive to buy when they are available so families are going without. 

Habitat For Children Ministries is about 3 and half hours from the capital of Port au Prince but we are feeling the effects through the widespread hunger. We know that we can't feed everyone but the more help that we can get, the better the people of Haiti will be. I have been talking with people in the United States for future food shipments but the Haitian families need help now. We at Habitat want to continue our efforts in helping as much as we can for as long as needed because we know of the political hardships that continuously affect this country.
