This and that


The guys started a new area of terracing to reclaim some very rocky land with a few scattered bushes and wire grass. 

Cory was pleasantly surprised to find most of the rocks are easy to move and a little good soil between the rocks. 

There is a patch of red clay, which may be 20 or more feet deep, near the middle of this rocky hill that will be spread on the terraces. 

Cory has seen near our house that this clay apparently can turn into good dark topsoil.

Fritzlin passed the 1/2 way mark in 4th grade.

He cleaned the aquarium where he housed and hatched many monarch butterflies this summer.

 Both the ones he had and the wild ones started getting diseased so we decided to take a break.

Working on weeding as we're preparing to send a video as requested by one of our supporting churches, as well as having potential visitors this weekend.

With a chance for mail if Pastor Clotaire visits on Saturday, we're working on a Fall Newsletter*, thank you letters to our team, and paperwork that needs to be renewed in Port-Au-Prince in October-both for our Land Cruiser and our residential visas.

Some of the vegetables are winding down, the local corn crop is drying down; and we continue to enjoy colorful gladiolas.

Kids Club is doing well at Fauche.  Photos are during Compassion International gift box distribution. Please pray for Jean Pierre's health. He is still having some pain in his ankle and his eyes have a cataract and glaucoma. Volleyball recently resumed.

We love the sky views
