On Monday, July 28, Klinik Manman Angela answered another call for the need of the clinic to the poor in Pasquet. Our team met in St. Joseph’s chapel. On arrival the church was filled with many children, women and men waiting to see the doctors. Jesus is doing the calling and we are responding.

On Sunday, July 27, we celebrated Sr. Marilyn’s feastday/birthday, and took the opportunity for our kids to thank God for this past school year. The kids who passed to the next grade brought their report cards, which were carried in procession to the altar in thanksgiving for God’s graces and blessings. Before the closing blessing of Mass, Fr. Limond blessed the crosses that were given to us by our Sisters in Holly, MI. We understand that the crosses were made by a gentlemen from that area.

There were so many who gathered for the Bon Fet that we had no room left in the chapel, so some who joined us had to stand outside on the corridor. After Mass all enjoyed cake, cookies, soda, chocolate and their favorite popcorn! We also did some dancing!

Dombrey is dough with sause pwa, sauce with beans. Delicious!

Finally we were able to prepare a multi-purpose room for our kids. As you can see in the pictures, we had a large table and benches made. This area will be used for eating, learning and studying. We are going to install an overhead light fixture so in the evening our young people will be able to study. Up until now, they have been studying under the streetlight, when we have city electricity. Thanks to our inverter, we will be able to share our light with our kids. We thank God for all those who helped to make this possible.

On Thursday, July 10, Klinik Manman Angela went to Lavout. We were invited by the pastor to have the clinic in his chapel that had been newly built, together with a school for the poor children in the mountains. The road to get to Lavout is very difficult. At the end of the road, when we arrived at the chapel, we were surprised to see such a beautiful school building. Klinik Manman Angela goes to the poor who do not have an opportunity to see a doctor or to get medications.

Some elderly people were so sick they were unable to walk to the clinic, so we went to them in their homes. We had to climb some rocky terrain.
