After a slow start to the day, we Treated 10 teenagers, preparing to move out of Grace Village and live on their own, to their first meal in a restaurant. As with all of the Haitian youth we have met, they were on their best behavior and worked hard to master use of a knife.
Crystal prepared for our lunch by having her hair done, tightly. The girls did not understand why her blond hair kept falling out of the braids.
Sam prepared by gazing at the port, from the Grace Village clinic, with Cite Soleil smoking in the background.
Kristina ended the day with some resistance training equipment left in Haiti by Fred Flintstone - yes these are cement filled buckets for weights.
It's a total downpour in Haiti right now. The carnival singing is over and the rocky, potholed dirt roads should be really interesting tomorrow. We pray for our Haitian friends who have dirt floors and holes in their roofs. Based on what we have found this week, they will continue to smile tomorrow and praise God. Hatians are incredible people, filled with faith in our Lord.
