I went on a mission trip with my church to Haiti April 11 – 19th. While there we stayed with Carl and Maya Gilles who are missionary’s who live in Port au Prince.The first day of our trip we visited a small church in a village called Babaco where we had worship service and then we went to Hotel Montana for the afternoon. Hotel Montana was demolished in the 2010 Earthquake, but it now looks to be up and running again. I know it sounds odd to start the trip with a day of rest, but our first day in Haiti was a Sunday and that is the activity our hosts had planned for us and by the end of the week I was really very glad that we had that day of resting, because I was exhausted.
While in Haiti we visited, The Apparent Project, Outside the Bowl, The City Hospital, Mother Teresa’s Children’s Hospital and also spent the week with the people of Bobaco, in a church there nestled on the bank of a dried up river bed. While there we had ladies Bible studies, youth Bible Studies, children’s Bible School, and much, much more.
Getting to know these wonderful Haitian people and learn more about them and their culture was such a blessing. This video though very loooong (27 min) is still only a small portion of the time we shared and the pictures that our group took while in Haiti.
I hope you enjoy it.
Have a wonderful day,
Terri

Well thanks Wally for trying to watch. I debated whether to put it on the blog or not because though the pictures have special meaning for me and those who were on the trip, to others it may be like being invited over to watch old home movies of people you don’t know 😀 Though there are a lot of pics of cute cute kids 🙂 Have a good evening and thanks for stopping by!
