Not Too Hot...

You know it's actually hot when a Haitian complains of feeling warm!!!

Despite the heat, the work carries on for the latrine. In under two days a team of three have made significant progress on the wall. 

The trees are crying for water in the heat. 

We are continually in need of rain on the Plateau and so we pray and use the water from the NEW CISTERN!!!

gaining perspective...

Walking onto the land you can see the changes that have taken place.

New growth is everywhere with the three days of showers we have received. It was not a huge rain but the light rain fall has pushed new shoots up.

The men working on the land are on a break for Easter break.  

 Samuel's family visited the land one time before returning home to Germany.

New donations have helped us put the base on the latrine to seal it off.

THANK YOU for working with us THIS YEAR on this project. To have a land producing trees, growing new trees and young men trained in caring for the land.

A hole of great importance…

The latrine hole is DUGE! Now it needs to be covered so that when I rains it will not fill in. Monday and Tuesday the guys would like to work on sealing the hole. Then April 1^st the guys will be given a small vacation for Easter.

   

To help us finish the latrine we will need $1,500 US to purchase the cement to seal the hole and then put a roof on it.

An education in WATER…

  When everyone around you in great necessity of WATER how do you share some of what you have been given?

 9,000 gallons is a lot of water. Samuel designed a lock box for the water tap. 

   

  

This way water can be shared and not taken and still be enough for the trees.

a hope and a future...

Yesterday Manis sat down with some of the guys who are working on the land. They are still digging out the latrine and just finished preparing the land for the time when it DOES rain. Manis asked the guys what they wanted out of life. Their response was to learn how to live a better life and not just to learn things in a class room but to learn things from older and wiser people.

Developing the land is only a part of the work. Nothing happens quickly and the guys working with Samuel are also learning things that will give them a better quality of life.
