Haiti~part 3

These houses were recently built and are used as transition homes while waiting for the permanent homes to be completed.

The Lambi site's official name is Grace Village.
One of the temporary homes on Lambi. .
YWAM permanent housing project

One day was spent helping unload building supplies from delivery trucks. These materials will be used to build houses. 

Building materials are stored at the Hospital. A new shipment came in while they were there. Should be enough for another 50 homes.
Below are pictures of a farm operated by Double Harvest

Going to church at Wane in Carrefour. 
Everyone looking their best for church.
Inside the temporary church. 
Their building was damaged in the quake so the tent was errected to accommodate over a 1000 people but they still had several hundred outside the fence peeking in. Maybe it was because of the "blondes", which is what they call caucasians.

These are two of their new Haitian friends, Ginette and Michael.
Fun Fact: 
 Michael was a top 15 finalist on American Idol, season 4!
