With the support of the Lily and the Sparrow, the Agapê school in Belle- Rivière organized a trip to go to the beach in Grand Goave, which is one of the towns of Haiti, on April 6th, 2022. Seventy people would have been able to participate, but some of the parents and their children didn’t want to go because they were worried about the instability of the country. In all, there were thirty students, two teachers, and three parents who decided to go.
From the school to the beach, it is a distance of forty kilometers. It took an entire day to go there and to get back home. Only one trip per day is possible.
We can say that the trip was very beneficial for the students for many reasons, such as: discovering new areas and towns, swimming in the sea for the first time, eating and drinking together, playing and developing good relationships with one another. Therefore, this trip was a great learning opportunity for them.
The trip had a special impact on the scholarship students. Most of them are always stressed because of the socio- economic problems of their parents, so the trip was a good opportunity for them to relax and enjoy food and drinks together. According to them, they would love to go on a trip like this at least twice a year!
In short, the trip was wonderful and beneficial for the students. They learned many new things, and they developed good relationships which brought joy into their hearts. For that, may God bless the supporters of The Lily and The Sparrow more and more. You are preaching the gospel by action. Congratulations!
Pastor Thélamond Saurel
