Yesterday, we had some time to cool off at the beach, then to St. Marc to buy buckets for the water filters!!
Today, Sunday, we were blessed to first attend Mass at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel parish in the center of Liancourt and then to the chapel in Hatte Belanger. We were able to really interract with the people at the chapel and passed out protractors and compasses to the school children there. We also presented the water filters that are going to be used at the school that is located in the chapel. Fr. Alexis was able to instruct the people on how to use them. He also explained to them that just because the water may look "clear" it is not necessarily "clean." These 5 filters that we left there will provide "clean" water for 331 students!!!!!
The people were very friendly and excited about everything we brought, but I think the loadest applause was for the SOCCER BALLS!!! To think sometimes what small things you can do that bring great smiles!!
Schmitty's exlamation on the ride home, "Wow, I feel fulfilled!!" said it all for us today.
Love to you all,
Team May
