Time to Regroup

It has been a busy week already since coming back. There are so many things to attend to, so much to reorganize, plan and set back into action. The feel in the country is a mix of anticipation and discouragement. It has now been six months since the quake and so many are still living in a state of limbo, waiting for help, expecting to get ahead, but daily facing the reality of a slow rebuilding process.

We are working hard to construct temporary elementary classes to open in the fall. This week is also occupied with preparing Education Fund Reports and Student cards. We are delighted to have some helping hands with us. Alice Smedes, one of our Canada board members, is here again to help with the reports and with our kids. Chad and Kelly O'neill from Surrey, BC are here with their 10 month old, Dublin, for five weeks to help in construction and administration. They wil be keeping up a blog that you can follow here: O'neill's In Haiti. We will get a newsletter out very soon to update you on all the details of what is happening!!
