Haiti Hospital Appeal

Thursday, June 4th

This morning was wonderful! We witnessed the first Communion of 101 10-11 year olds in the Catholic Church on the feast day of Corpus Christi. After witnessing this wonderful occasion, we went to Haiti Hospital Appeal in Cap-Haitian and had the opportunity to teach a total of 10 providers, mostly nurses and physicians. This was a group that had called me for a refresher on SDM, as they had previous training from the Ministry of Health several years ago. They were very knowledgeable in the method, which created a great opportunity for discussion. While the providers had the training in the past, they were unclear of where to acquire sets of beads to provide the patients, so the method had not been taught in the clinic. Therefore, I provided information to the director where she could order CycleBeads, as she had money in her budget to do so and was eager to provide this method to her patients. She was very grateful for the information and for our refresher training. 

What a wonderful day!

Our Lady of Perpetual Help, continue to pray for this mission!

On our way home, we passed a woman carries shelves on the back of a motorcycle down the bumpy roads of Haiti.
