We started a house rebuild project a couple of weeks ago, about 40 minute drive out the trail towards Ti-Goave, the house is for a widow that was living in a small 10 by 12 house and the tin and tarps weren't keeping the rain out at all anymore.
She also has relatives living with her and I don't know how they do it, but they somehow all cram in there for the night. This house will be a bit over the regular size of the houses we have been building up to this point to accommodate all of them, they are all poor and so they pool what they have and live in one house.
We are thankful for the donations we got towards this project, it thrills me to see and know that another widow is being blessed and helped. She is a sister in the church here as well. Walks a couple hours or more to church.

Do you notice the bluff of trees center of picture to the left, that is where the job sight is, hard to walk down there, and it "hurts to roll down too"!!! |
They're working on the first wall. |
