Some pictures from Haiti

Here are some very random pictures from my Haiti trip. More to come elsewhere!


Me holding a baby goat that wandered in to check out us making a mural!


Me with Jislyn & Jislen at a sugar cane factory on one of our food distribution walks.


I was asked, as the visiting artist, to name this baby. His mother was mental insane and some of the men had taken advantage of that and got her pregnant. This baby was on the way to the orphanage. I named him "Dieu Bon" or "God is Good". Wanted him to have a good start. A few days later his aunt decided to take him in. God IS good!


On a food distribution walk with the twins, Jislen & Jislyn who inspired the nutrition center- these kids were found by the Mompremiers eating ashes out of the fire. Look how big & strong they're getting! =)


Me holding a weak, malnurioushed munchkin during VBS games. Her 5 year old sister was responsible to take care of her and change her. We got her some shoes that fit.


Soccer or "Football" is a big deal in Haiti. While we were there the US played Haiti in "football" and we tied! So we had a special game on the Mompremiers field the next day. Wilnot, Jislen, Me, Evens (& random kid behind me). Wilnot & Evens were friends from last year.
