On the weekend the team took a short break on Saturday afternoon to visit Forth Jacques and the Baptist Haiti Mission. We had a nice lunch and then explored the fort. It was sad once again to see how much it was damaged in the quake.Sunday morning we had a great time of fellowship at First Presbyterian Church. The team appreciated the fact that the sermon was translated into English for them. After lunch they decided to play some basketball, Haitians vs. Canadians. Despite my repeated offers to play for either time, I was assigned the job of cheerleading with Maia. We had fun cheering on the Canadians, but despite all our efforts they only won one of the three games.
Things at the new property are not going exactly as planned. (oh Haiti....) The backhoe that is needed to level the property as well as dig out the septic tank, has yet to arrive. This puts things at sort of a stand still as far as the big projects go, so everyone is busy making tables, benches and putting the finishing touches on the offices/kitchen/bedrooms and of course painting.... there's so much painting to be done. The teachers came into today and I got them started on a variety of jobs. They are always happy to see each other and helped out a lot today.

Hannah likes the first picture the best because Dad is in it. She says Dad looks the strongest. She wants to know if the students like the soccer balls and she hopes they have fun with them.
Guess B-Ball isn't your sport eh Kim?
