We thought you might enjoy and group shot, from the porch of the rectory in Cerca Carvajal. From the left: Troy, Linda, Theresa, Lydia, Vicki, Max, Kathy (Fr. KeKe in the front).
It was a really wonderful trip with many great experiences. When we met after we returned to the US, several commented that they thought it would be sad going to Haiti, and instead they found the opposite, a joyful, happy people who have so much to teach us about livng in community. If you have considered going to Haiti, any of us would be happy to talk with you about it. And if you have thought about bringing children, we know have quite a number of families who have gone on our pilgrimage to Haiti and could talk about their experiences.
I also shouldn't forget to mention the beautifully plated food and tasty Haitian beer!

God's presence always seems closer when we are in Haiti; maybe it is the deep faith we witness in the people, the way their conversations are punctuated with "grasadye" meaning by the grace of God or "si Dye vle" meaning if God wills, or their joyful trust in God's providence.
