The Path to Haiti

Have you ever been called to do something?

I have had many times in my life when it become obvious that God has a plan and I just need walk the path that He has set of me. The current path has me going to Haiti. Yeah…Haiti. Last year The Daraja Children’s Choir Of Africa visited The Orchard and within their performance was a talk about the work of their parent organization, 410 Bridge. Within that talk, I heard about how 410 Bridge works with communities to help communities, and one of the areas is they concentrate on is education (see the image below). The work they described sounded a lot like the work of Myles Horton and the Highlander Folk School (described in Horton’s autobiography, The Long Haul), which I used to guide my own work within classrooms and with teachers. After a few conversations, my beliefs were verified and I could see the plan start to develop.  When I finally learned that 410 Bridge was partnering with The Orchard to build relationships with communities in Haiti I could feel the final nudge…here we go…
