Today we had grits with syrup and butter for breakfeast. We left the mission center around 8 A.M. and traveled around an hour to one of Mission Possible's schools in a rural area. When we arrived we were greeted by the children, who were on break. We played frisbee and soccer with kids, as well as blowing bubbles for them to pop. After recess we ate tortilla pepperoni and cheese fillings and the children went back to class. After lunch the students performed a program for us consisting of several Haitian chants, songs, and prayers. We sang the hymn Sanctuary in response. After the program school ended and we walked with the kids through their village and we able to see the inside of one of the Haitian homes. Afterwards we were driven back to the mission center and relaxed by swimming, reading, and taking naps. We ate traditional Haitian food of chicken, rice, peppers, and beans for dinner.
