UPDATE FROM HAITI! 

May 23, 2012, near Port –au-Prince.

A group of 13 people from The Presbyterian Church in Chatham Township are currently in Haiti building a cistern for water and a wall around an area that will eventually house 4 schools, a church and a clinic. The group, which left last Thursday, May 17, have worked on the school building, the cistern and moved blocks to assist the masons building the wall that will encompass the entire five acres.

 

They have also participated in Sunday School, Worship and then the Vacation Bible School program. The group also played soccer and for the first time in two years, Foundation For Peace did not lose. They tied 1-1 thanks to our PCCT team.

 

Plans are for the first building to be opened by October. The group will return to the United States on Saturday, May 26. This group was spearheaded by Hank Belusa through the Foundation for Peace.
