Amelia and Justin Lyon are Southern Californian photographers. Justin served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the 90's in Haiti. Being thus fluent in Haitian Creole, he volunteered to go to Haiti to act as a translator post-earthquake.
Here is his account of his 2 1/2 weeks in Haiti.
The spirit of the Haitians is inspiring. Look at their faces. Look at the strong women of all ages depicted in his account, who smile despite their incomprehensible loss. I hope all of you have had a chance to give to the Haitians, whether it be in funds or prayers. There is progress, and it is evident in Lyon's account.
Have a happy day!
