Day 2 in jacmel! This morning we woke up and went to a Haitian baptist church. The service was outside und a tent and the service lasted three hours. The pastor preached all in French creole and was very dynamic, though we couldn't understand anything. Some of us recognized a few songs and sang along in English.
After church we had some downtime and go ready to hit the beach!!! We went to a beautiful little spot with some Haitian kids. The kids were taken out if abusive orphanages and placed in a type of safe house. One of the CCH members runs the safe house. The kids will remain there until 22 and will be trained in different skills so they can find jobs after they leave.
Tomorrow we start our actual clinic work and are excited! During the trip we will be going to different facilities including a clinic, orphanage and even make some home visits.
