Photos from Monday..

We began our day delivering chalkboards built by previous teams
to some of the schools which HAFF encourages through curriculum
programs.  The headmaster invited us to stay and spend time with the children.

The kids in this school all wear uniforms...it was kind of hard
to read their faces at first!

The future of Haiti.

How can you not smile when you see these kids?  What a privilege for our group to spend
an hour singing and playing with them.

We sang some songs and told them about our favorite Bible characters.

The girls had fun singing "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" with them.
The boys enjoyed playing soccer with the kids from the school.

Next stop...the open air market in the village of Bohoc.

Want to buy a goat?

So...which one is the Dutch man?

Where's the beef?

Have you ever carried a turkey on your head?

This was the first live chicken (rooster) Justin has ever bought!
Annie was pretty proud of herself here.

I guess we could have bought a bull!  (The real "bull market".)

The market is like a living text-book of third world life. A plain text book doesn't
include the sights, sounds, and smells!
The view from the back of our truck as we left.

Singing for the Young Leaders class back at HAFF.

We also visited the Zandolit (Lizard) craft market.  Every dollar spent goes
directly back to the local community.

English conversation class at the end of the day.

English conversation time with students from the school.


Just before dinner we taught the English class students how to play American football.
It was a riot!
