Technical School

Until the earthquake hit, Haiti Arise has had a technical school here on campus.  Classes in the trades such as cabinetry, plumbing, electrical, etc., were taught so that people could start their own small businesses or find work in their field of training.  Computer and English classes were taught as well.  The Bible school met in the same building.  The earthquake damaged the school beyond repair, so it had to be demolished and a new one is in the process of being built.

This week, we have a couple of men here from Alberta, John and Terry, to lay tile in the school.  They are laying approximately 1,100 sq ft per day.  We thought we would take a picture of them working as proof that they aren't at the beach everyday!!  It is fun to have them here.
