Today was another great day in Haiti. We got to sleep in an extra hour . Then we came down and had breakfast together and then we got ready for church. Church was very powerful and moving with the singing and praise. Bonnie, Lindsey and I gave our testamonies. There were about 500 people present and it was VERY Hot and muggy but it went by very well. After church we took a few team pictures while waiting for lunch.
After lunch we drove down to see the town car wash and wow it was really different. The car wash was a spring fed stream going into the ocean. After driving back to the compound we took a walk to the goat farm and the other 12 acres of land that they are planing to build a childrens school, church and a parent compound. So for every 4 or 5 children there will be two adults with them.
The women went back to the compound and started to bag beans. The men stayed back and dug a couple holes to start soil sampling. After digging two holes it was 5:30pm so we headed back for supper. Supper was very delicious they cooked us lasagna. Bonnie tried to balance a tub of water on her head. It worked with Dominic`s help. Its Lindsey, Bonnie and my last day in Haiti. We are going to start packing and then call it a night. We have to be up at 4:30am and be gone by 5:00am to Port-au-Prince airport. I had a great time here bonding with the team and building relationships with the haitian people. I hope to come back again in the future.
