The beach!

In March we were able to take some of the local children (Chaveneau) to the beach at Port Salut.  It was a beautiful beach but even more beautiful were the smiles and excitement coming from those kids!  :)  

Ezekiel's face when he first saw the water!  (Ricardo doesn't look too sure- peeking out)


Didn't take him long to be playing/jumping in the waves!


All my "buddies" sitting in a fishing boat on the shore.

Who says Haiti is not beautiful???  LOOK at this beach!  (and it was an overcast day- sometimes it's SO BLUE)
Most of these children had never been in a vehicle (rode in the back of the truck) or farther than Chantal (3 miles from home).  Just watching their faces as we rode along in the truck was almost worth it, but when we got to that beach it was ALL we had expected ... and more!  This is ministry for sure- these children will never forget that day (neither will we).  Thank you God for this opportunity!  :)
