July 5th
2016 – Today was our second day in Haiti and boy was it hot! We started off
our morning with breakfast (fresh mangoes, French toast, oatmeal, pancakes and
eggs) followed by circle time to prep ourselves for the day ahead. After
closing in prayer, we loaded up into the tap-tap (a brightly colored truck that
is enclosed in the back and serves as our mode of transportation)! Once out, we
visited three different districts of Cite Soleil, delivering water to each of
them. At each stop, we were greeted by chants of “Hey you!” and warm hugs from
all the children. At our first stop, we were able to witness one of the wonderful
opportunities Healing Haiti has created by visiting the new church and school
that has been built on what used to be a waste filled lot. It is so amazing to
learn about how those here worship and love God despite living in such poor
conditions. It is truly inspirational.
We've been having some trouble with the internet - but pictures of our day will be posted shortly!!
