Piti Piti

Last July when we had the kids in Haiti for two weeks, we met a small group from Spokane, Washington.  These folks had developed an ongoing relationship with a pastor and his church in Godin.  We had the opportunity to help a bit with the VBS that the Spokane folks had funded.

While there in Haiti, the Spokane group did a lot of videotaping.  Now they've put that footage together and are using it to promote their work with an ongoing terracing project there in Godin.  I came across the finished video on Facebook earlier today.  Their website is pitipitievents.org.  The "piti piti" comes from a Haitian saying: "Piti piti zwazo fe nich" - meaning "Little by little the bird builds its nest."

I think all six of us appear - briefly - in the video.  Also, there are quite a few scenes (especially towards the end) which were filmed on and around the OMS mission compound where we will be living.  The video even gives a taste of Haiti's difficult history.

Check out their website HERE - and consider giving to help continue the work.

Here's the video:
