It has been a truly amazing week of serving God in Haiti. Yesterday we had to say a sad goodbye to the kids at the orphanage and the youth at Source de la Grace, and today we got to see the beauty of Haiti at the beach. It was so much fun! Haiti is SO beautiful! You look one way and see the beach and the other and see mountains!
At the beach that we went to there was a dock that you could jump off of and we spent most of our time at the beach there. It was really cool seeing our team just have fun together having diving contests, cannonball contests, and seeing who can jump the farthest. While the beach was really fun what really stuck with me is the hope that the beauty of Haiti brings. It could easily be a top tourist destination with a little bit of simple marketing. If Haiti, as a tourist destination, was marketed right it would open up so many job opportunities for people who could otherwise not be able to find one, and that gives me great hope for the people of Haiti.
