Bibles for St. Jean Baptiste students in Haiti

Some members of our church recently went to Haiti to visit the school of St. Jean Baptiste.  When I heard there was a group going, I wanted to make sure they were able to get Bibles to some of their students.  After talking it though, we decided it would be best to purchase the Bibles in Haiti (to support the local economy and be able to provide the correct translations.)

They were able to purchase French Bibles in the town of Les Cayes.  They took them back to the school and were able to give them to all the 6th, 7th, and 8th graders who didn't have a Bible.  It turned out there were 20 kids in those grades who were blessed with Bibles. 

Below is a picture of some of those students.  The one standing up is sharing her favorite Bible passage, Psalm 23, which she had memorized.
