This is our last day in Haiti, and we spent it the way we like best-- with children. This morning we went to Mother Teresa’s Sisters of Charity orphanage just down the street from Grace Children’s Hospital. Oh my. About 150 infants and toddlers live there in rooms filled with cribs, one after the other after the other. Often parents will bring their children when they cannot feed them, but visit daily to hold and feed their children. We were there when parents were holding their infants, feeding them, sitting on the floor and rocking them in their arms.

The work of dedicated teachers in Cite Soleil concentrates on seeing a hopeful future for the students. A nearly miraculous home-grown business, Pure Water for Haiti, which provides safe, affordable drinking water for the people, as well as jobs and even careers, expresses confidence and affirmation for the future of Haitians. Such a day we’ve had !
