Outing to the mountains...

As some of you may have already read in the monthly newsletter, a group of 15 youth from the orphanage went on a work/pleasure outing to the mountains for a couple of days. Ruben and the boys painted the galvanized roof on Don & Doris's cabin. The group stayed the night at the cabin and then left early the next morning, traveling through Cap Haitian and on up to the Citadel (a historical landmark in Haiti recognized by the United Nations as a World Heritage Site). What an awesome opportunity for the youth to get to experience some of their country's history firsthand! Following are photos from the trip:



...fifteen youth, some squeezed in the cab, others on the back of a flat-bed truck that a mission loaned us, we headed up the mountain.
