Friday morning started with a lecture about Agriculture in Haiti by Ely Mompremier (HAFF Farm Manager sitting at left). Carla Wilson translated for him. The lecture took place in the plant nursery.


Later in the day, Amy, Barb and the young people on the team had a Bible Study with the Young Leaders for God classes.
This morning (Saturday) , while most of the team went to market in Pignon, Eric Hausler taught about 100 pastors and church leaders. In the afternoon, David taught them from the book of Daniel.

The morning started with prayer and beautiful singing of the French hymn "Precious Name of Jesus". The first line of the hymn is "The name of Jesus is so sweet".


The conference attendees are always extremely attentive to Eric, who speaks Creole fluently and brings outlines in Creole. At the end of the day, Greg asked for a show of hands of how many people had walked 30 minutes or more to come to the conference today. Most of the hands went up. Then he asked for every increasing amounts of time. Many had walked 3 or 4 hours. Amazingly, when Greg asked for those who walked 5 hours, there were still about 6 hands in the air! These folks are hungry for the Word of God.
