A Truth Connect ministry team of seven men were in Port de Paix, Haiti for a Leadership Training Conference (LTC) in April, 2014. Traveling to Port de Paix from Port au Prince is at least a 6 hour over land, bumpy and dusty ride. Once in the city of Port de Paix, things don't improve. Most of the following pictures were taken by team member Jerry Whysong.
