I lived in rural Bayonnais, Haiti during the 2007-2008 academic year. My primary goal was simply to go, to live in community with the people, remaining open and flexible to the various ways in which we might learn from one another. Among the many hats I wear, some include teaching English, art, and computer science, playing local physician when necessary and soccer quite often, and pursuing my vocation as a visual artist.

It was a very nice time with Peter in Bayonnais. His coming here was a kind of blessing in many ways.
First, we practice English
Second, we American come here, he helps us with them and they feel more comfortable with their blood
third, he plays with the children without saying that they are too dirty
Fourth, we receive many baloons from him
sixth, HE TEACHES MANY THINGS TO THE BAYONNAISSIAN PEOPLE. THAT IS, ACCORDING TO ME,THE BEST THING WE COULD RECEIVE FROM. BECAUSE IT IS SAID: “IT IS BETTER TO SHOW SOMEONE HOW TO FISH THAN TO GIVE HIM A FISH EVERY DAY”.
Seventh, He is a blessing for us in whatsoever we could imagine. He is loving! His life shows us that he is a good christian.

I was so touched by your blog.
I have made several trips to Haiti and hope to go again in 2009.
May God bless you in your work. I look forward to supporting your efforts.
