This week was not all about protests and lootings. On Saturday morning Dieunette Lormintus travelled to the United States. Her mother dressed her up for this special day.
We drove over to the Delmas 91 guesthouse where a medical team was staying. They were returning to the USA on Saturday and volunteered to transport Dieunette and 2 other children. Angel Missions found doctors and hospitals willing to help these children.
The boy in the baseball cap is Aluckson Charles. He will be getting clubbed foot surgery and the other baby in this photo is Guerdsley Pierre. He will be getting surgery for his cleft lip/palette. We all piled into the pickup truck and I dropped everyone off at the airport. The special part of the day was that none of these children had authorization from haitian social services to travel. Due to the problems on the street we weren't able to get this paperwork. We took a chance anyway and immigration at the airport never said anything. We give the Lord thanks that all 3 children are now on their way to getting medical care!
Saturday is cleanup day and we pile the bags of garbage into the back of the pickup and drive it to the garbage dumpster on Delmas 33. All I have to say is who wants to bring the garbage away and the boys eagerly climb aboard to help Pastor Pierre.
It's nice that the chore of bringing the garbage away can be such a joyful task to a child! Here are some happy faces.
