We started off at church, then had a Haitian lunch that included the most delicious lalo - which is a jute, spinach and fish dish (Laurie loved it, but Jeff definitely did not!).
Jody played two songs on her flute, which was our Special Music at church.
After church, we spent the afternoon at community clinic (which was in the church sanctuary). What did we see and do? A little of everything!
