Village of Canez

After we all got back, the guys stacked the rice and the people lined up. Brent let everyone know that this was a blessing from God.

While we waited for all the groups to get back, we played with the kids. They loved having their picture made and then being able to see it.

This little guy stayed attached to Holley's finger while we were walking from hut to hut.

The huts that we visited were right on the water. But, because it is part salt water, they can't drink it. They have water right in front of them but have to walk miles to get water they can drink.

After we gave them the bag, we would ask each person if they had been converted (or what we commonly refer to as being saved). Everyone that our group visited had already been converted and attended church. We gave each person a keychain to use as a tool to help explain salvation to other people.

We all divided into groups with a translator and went to visit each home. We presented them with a family bag, one ticket for a 50 lb bag of rice (food for a month) and a ticket to be seen in the clinic.

When we got down to the village, the guys set up a tarp between the bus and the tap-tap to provide shade for the clinic.

Once we came off the main road and made our way to the village, we found ourselves in the midst of a dessert. A dessert that had a view of the mountains that separate Haiti from the Dominican Republic along with a huge body of fresh and salt water combined. It was absolutely beautiful!
