December 14 - photos!

Here are a few pictures of our return visit to Cite Soleil, where there is some of the most extreme poverty in Haiti. You'll see us filling buckets of water for the families from the water truck we drove in. We loved to play (and dance! and sing! and laugh!) with the kids and talk with the families as they were in line.  They seemed more thirsty, and more hungry on our second visit yesterday (Thursday). There are also some photos from our visit to the elderly on Wednesday.  Healing Haiti takes care of about 30 elderly people through their Elder Care program (which Jess Burmester oversees). We visited five of them in their homes. We washed them, helped put lotion on their dry skin, delivered meals, sang, and prayed with them. Most are sponsored by people in the U.S.  It was hard to imagine what their lives would be like without their basic needs being met by Healing Haiti, and without people helping protect them and advocate for them. What a blessing to be a part of this ministry.
