Summer Happenings at Bayonnais 07/25/2011
Field Director Rosemond Pierre reports that work is progressing on the water well and purification system at Bayonnais. Team members hope to taste the clean water before they leave next Saturday. English classes with the children are going well, and it’s encouraging to see the students’ enthusiasm and progress. On Wednesday the team will take about 50 students on an outing that will be fun for both team and students. Please pray for safety on this trip, which is made possible because of the school bus provided by friends from Pennsylvania. Add Comment Mission Team Dates Announced 07/13/2011
Orlando FL – ICDM director Yvan Pierre will be in Haiti July 13-31 working with field leadership and U.S. teams. A team from Lexington KY is already on site teaching English in Bayonnais. Clean water for Bayonnais is the focus of a team from Kentucky that also left for Haiti July 13. Their mission: to drill a well and install a purification system to provide safe, clean water for the people of Bayonnais. Though water scooped from streams and pools may look clean, it may be teeming with disease-causing organisms. With the recent outbreaks of cholera, the importance of safe drinking water is receiving new emphasis throughout Haiti. Kentucky team members will also work on Center of Hope construction. |
