First Water-Truck Day

Day 3!
Again today our eyes and hearts were open to moving stories of the Haitian people. We got the pleasure of a tour in Hope village, including the clinic and church. The permanent American missionary relayed how proud she is of the Haitian doctors, nurses and all the staff at Hope village. They come to serve first and receive a paycheck second. It is set in the most needy location of Haiti. We had 3 stops with the water-truck in Cite Soleil, where we helped carry water buckets with children picking them up to deliver home. We also were showered with Jesus' love between the interactions we had with the children hugging us and being carried in our arms. We shared smiles and love through the language barrier, as well as any words we knew such as, Jezi Reme Ou (Jesus loves you), and ou bel (you're beautiful). Each stop was a little different but the children all act the same. We are blessed to show examples of God's love as we then see them helping each other. Their community has come a long way over the years with Healing Haiti.
