Day 7 - 4th of July in Haiti


We had to dig a bigger and deeper hole for drainage of the showers

It still got bigger than this

Filled in with rock instead of dirt

Couple of the boys helping move cement

Making the drainage canal taller

A lot more rock spread in the front lot. 8 total loads spread by hand on the complex

The kids wanted to keep moving rock even when we didn't

Our excitement for the day was testing out the new giant spot light to light up the playground and basketball court area. The picture does not do it justice, it is super bright. Almost like daylight, but with lots more shadows. The light works and will be mounted higher, but at a later time during our trip.

It was our Haitian firework for the 4th!! :) The picture is still dark even though the light is super bright. 
I hope everyone in the states is enjoying life as much as I am down here. America has great freedoms. But down here I am free from time. I am not on the clock here. If it is light we can work, if it is hot, we can take a break. I love being down here and helping these kids out. This next week is going to fly by way too fast though. Thanks again for all of those who supported me to be able to make this trip! Thank you to all of you who are praying for all of the work going on down here. God is doing some amazing things. I hope the pictures that I post do justice to how awesome God is.
